Talking of parachutes, Russians have been flying with helicopter ejector seats since a couple of years with the Kamov Ka-50: rotor blades are blown away by explosive charges in the rotor disc and the canopy is similarly jettisoned.

You can check it there:

I had the chance to see this wonderful rotorcraft at the Paris Air Show a couple of years ago: just amazing!
