Mil Mi-24 Attack Helicopter: In Soviet / Russian and Worldwide Service - 1972 to the Present

The Mil Mi-24 Soviet/Russian gunship and attack helicopter has been in continuous combat service since its first appearance in the early 1970s. Its impressive performance, ability to transport fully armed troops, and imposing armament soon earned the Mi-24 the nickname "Crocodile" and have made the big helicopter an opponent that is still feared to this day.

The Mi-24's technical, developmental, and operational details, as well as upgrades and variants, all are discussed here. Included are discussions of all versions, armament, radio, radar warning and navigational equipment, and defense systems.
Tactics and operations are also presented, with special emphasis on the Mi-24's service in Afghanistan from 1979 to 1989. Worldwide use by over 30 countries includes the air forces of Angola, Brazil, Cuba, India, Iraq, North Korea, Syria, Vietnam, Yemen, and others.

Mil Mi-24 Hind Attack Helicopter

Originating in the 1960s within the Soviet Union, this helicopter initially served as a fire-support platform and has maintained its production for decades, with over 2,000 units manufactured to date.
Dubbed the 'Hind' by NATO during the Cold War, this formidable aircraft has garnered various monikers from those who've encountered it. The Mujahideen fighters in Afghanistan referred to it as the 'Devil's Chariot' during the Soviet invasion and occupation from 1979 to 1989.

The Hind has seen active duty in diverse conflicts across Chad, Nicaragua, Angola, Chechnya, Iran, Iraq, Syria, Nigeria, Mali, and Ukraine. Impressively, it continues to serve in over twenty countries, including former Soviet bloc nations like the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Serbia, now aligned with NATO.

This comprehensive book delves into the helicopter's development, tracing its journey from inception to its pivotal roles in Cold War confrontations and more recent operations. Authored by a recognized expert in aircraft, the book is enriched with original photography.

Mil Mi-24

NOWOŚĆ

Mil Mi-24 to kultowy rosyjski śmigłowiec szturmowy. Opracowany pod koniec lat 60. XX wieku, szybko stał się koszmarem dla zachodnich strategów wojskowych. Potężna maszyna przewyższała wszystko, co miały siły NATO i zyskała przydomek "latającego bojowego wozu piechoty".
W przeciwieństwie do zachodnich śmigłowców szturmowych, Mi-24 mógł przewozić ośmiu w pełni wyposażonych żołnierzy i zrzucać ich bezpośrednio do walki, co jest zdolnością nieporównywalną z żadnym innym śmigłowcem.

Ta praca Michaela Normanna jest niezbędna dla każdego, kto interesuje się lotnictwem wojskowym. Oferuje unikalną monografię rosyjskiego śmigłowca szturmowego, łączącą szczegółowe informacje na temat jego konstrukcji, technologii i historii. Mi-24 nadal jest w czynnej służbie w ponad 50 krajach.
