Actually - it's MI-2, not MI-8. And yes, MI-8 is slower than MI-2.
And if I am not mistaken, the SIZE in game manual is treated as DIMENSIONS.
Nothing is said about maneuverability or speed or anything else.

First I must admit I was wrong, and took Mi-8 for Mi-2. My apologies for that.
Whatever is in the game manual, the fact is that size is you used to determine if the unit is hit and if it's spotted. It seems to me very clear that if you at overall capacities of both Mi-2 and AH1, the second is much harder to hit: the cobra has same max dimensions, but what about his shape?
But you are right: unit can avoid missiles with maneuvers, so maybe the OOB maker didn't take agility as a factor to determine size.
