Mi-24 Hind D
The aircraft you mentioned is an Mi-24 Hind D. It's the mainstay for Warsaw Pact forces, and there are literally hundreds of variants of the aircraft. The photo I've attached is of a real Hind that I saw in person while deployed to Bosnia Hercigovinia 1995-1996. Also there are two flying at Ft. Polk LA used in training exercises for the U.S. Army.
Enjoy,

I like the Mi-24 Hind also. One of my favorite helicopters. Many Latin American, Asian, African, European, and Middle Eastern nations use that helicopter. I don't know of any kits though. I guess you have to scratch build it. You should find profile drawings and photos of the helicopter. I mean everyone knows what the Hind is. Best known for the Afghanistan War in 1980 and Chechnya.

Hi Apache !
We just finished our 2,30 meter body of the MIL MI HIND 24 D. Its designed for turbine or gasser mechanics.
If you are interested, just let me know by mail.

i read somewhere in this forum recently that the heli represented in that movie was a "hollywood version". i assume that means it was equipped with non-real original equipment fakes? :-)

I think the Rambo helis were actually built up to look like the Hind A, Not what NATO classifies as the Hind D.
A similar looking a/c was used inthe movie RED Dawn, the one with Patrick Swayze in.

@ravinglooney and skyflyerrob
Thatīs what i wanted to say. The helicopter in the movie is NOT a Hind...
@wiwanczyk
Yes, thatīs the "russian" movie-helicopter, a french Puma AS330. But the title of this website is incorrect, itīs a AS330, not a AS365, which is better known as Dauphin/Dolphin...
The Mil-Mi24D is also available there: http://www.baymo.de/hind.htm
