Mi-24 Super Hind MK V by ATE



Sickening, weakening
Don't let another somber pariah consume your soul
You need strengthening, toughening
It takes a bit of dark to rekindle the fire burning in you
Ignite the fire within you

I don't believe that ever entered service with anyone.

I believe the Mk III did though:





And you can get a conversion kit for it:

Well, since the Hind already looks like the dropship from Aliens, painting it up as the eponymous character is just a natural progression... :P

Kojima Productions' vision of a Mi-24 replacement- a merger of sorts with the Mi-28:



Forget about his bow and arrows- why wait until that sparrow has done his deed when I can just bury him right now 'cause I'm sick and tired of hearing why he wants to have his way with the cock robin!?

Australian Mi-35M (vaguely reminiscent of the Tiger camo)? :-*

Word is it's for Pakistan, but looks more South American IMHO.

That modeler overdid it on the weathering.  ;)

Actually, in doing profiles, I realized that dumb bombs are often the most weathered things on a plane because they just leave those out in the open to get rained on and nobody bothers repainting them.

Cheers,

In september last year it was still in these colors... and now some new photos from this month... As you can see, it received typical Mi-24 wings, a new colors (some kind of camouflage?) and number 271, but without visible serial number...

... The demonstrator will be used to research technologies for increasing the rotorcraft’s flight speed to 400 km/h and, later on, to over 450 km/h.

The results of the demonstrator testing and the technology developed within its framework may be used for other helicopter programs, particularly, the new Mil Mi-38 heavy and some combat aircraft.
