Satan’s chariot

“Letayushiy tank”, or in English “Flying tank”. That is what the Russians call the Mil Mi-24/35 Hind E. The Mi-35 is the export version of the Mi-24V, a development of the Mi-24 Hind attack helicopter. The Hind is one of the iconic attack helicopters, easily recognizable anywhere in the world. In comparison to other attack helicopters, this mean machine is huge. It can transport troops, carry military equipment with a sling and , of course, eliminate those unwanted rebels with its massive arsenal of guns missiles and so on. And a final word… in Afghanistan the rebels nicknamed this helicopter “Shaitan-Arba”… meaning “Satan’s Chariot”. Quite a nickname!
