Testament to it's validity as an effective combat helicopter the CIA used the Mi-17 (evolution of the Mi-8) in the opening days of the war in Afghanistan (in fact the first US personnel placed on the ground after the 9-11 attack). It was commemorated at a CIA dedication ceremony in 2019. The Mi-8 is definitely "Built Ford Tough" to use Ford's slogan.
