Sikorsky/MIL

Can anybody tell me if Sikorsky and Mil have ever collaborated on any projects or had some ownership in each others companies.

Mil holds several Sikorsky awards for helicopter design.

Regarding the S-55/Mi-4 design has always had a fashion element. There is also the factor of technology limiting what a designer can or cannot do. Given similar requirements similar results are common.
