The specific model of the helicopter was the Mi-8 AMT, which was developed by a Russian helicopter manufacturing company 15 years ago and sold in the Australian market.
It incorporated some of the new technology adopted by second-generation helicopters. This greatly extended the Mi-8 AMT's working life, which helped build its reputation in the civilian helicopter market for durability and reliability.
The fuselage structure of the helicopter was the traditional full-metal, semi-hard shell, short cabin and tail beam, which was divided into the front fuselage, middle fuselage, and tail beam. The tail beam was inclined with a fixed flat tail. The helicopter was mainly constructed with an aluminum alloy, while the tail was made of a titanium alloy and high-strength steel.
