Around 40 Mi-8s were operated by the Fuerza Aerea Revolucionaria, some of them being involved in the war in Angola, like this very unit that still has bullet holes in it. The Mi-8 first flew in 1961 and it became one of the world's most-produced helicopters with over 7000 units. Displayed at Museo del Aire, La Habana. A Police car is passing by the street in the background, a common sight at this part of the city.
