Yak-42 and Mi-8

A couple of vehicles of a (slightly) different kind - a Yak-42 and a Mi-8 installations seen during one of my recent trips to VDNKh, I think, it was on August 1, 2015.

First the Yak-42 behind which is the Vostok spaceship.

The very same on which Yuri Gagarin went to space (except it's likely a mock-up).


Built during 1980-2003 the Yak-42 is a 100/120-seat three-engined mid-range passenger jet. It was designed as a mid-range passenger jet. It is powered by modern high-bypass turbofan engines



Bonus.

The Mil Mi-8.



The Mil Mi-8 is a Soviet-designed medium twin-turbine transport helicopter. There are also armed gunship versions. The Mi-8 is among the world's most-produced helicopters, used by over 50 countries



Both of them together.
