The Yakovlev Yak-60, known as the Yak-32 in some sources, is the possible designation of an experimental tandem-rotor heavy-lift helicopter design from the late 1960s. It may have competed with the Mil Mi-12 and would have used two Mil Mi-6 rotors in tandem, each driven by a pair of 6,500 hp Soloviev D-25VF engines, potentially giving four times the payload of the Boeing CH-47 Chinook. Its cockpit would have resembled that of the Yak-24. Compared with the radical Mi-12 it was a conventional design, and two Mi-12s were built but no Yak-60s. It never progressed beyond the model stage.
