Default Russian Helicopter Mi-28

A few facts about MI-28 Russian helicopter.

After the war of Afghanistan there was clear that Soviet army needs a new helicopter to come replace the MI-24 used at times. In 1982 the Mile bureau introduced the new helicopter – MI-28, which was equal to the newly adopted “Apache” helicopters of USA and superseding the existing Soviet MI-24 copters. This was the most armored helicopter in the world. It couldn’t be shot down from the ground with the help of just handheld fire arms.

In 1984 the machine went into series.
