Strange looking registration and looks more like a c/n which is generally printed on the tail of a Mi8
* 157C86 0097414 MI8 Russia - Air Force 2020/01/18 11:26:45
157C86 does decode to RA-97414 but can find nothing on a Mi8 reference to 97414 except a c/n for Mi8 RA-22761 but that should be 1458E9, however it is a 2017 build (but only delivered 2019) and might have been seen at ZIA or Mil plant with no registration applied and hex given due to c/n? Possibly therefore a miscode
