    In Syria, our combat helicopters showed how this will actually happen .... to be honest, I was shocked by the endurance of our pilots doing it under the fire of heavy machine guns of militants.

      Definitely well done, the endurance is iron, even the heart stops beating when a large-caliber turntable is fired .... God forbid you have a good landing and return home unscathed.

    Not MI8, of course, a formidable good car, but the name "Terminator" is in my opinion too much. It would rather fit 24, this is really a destroyer, a destroyer!

      In general, I had my first thought - are they also flying? After all, you immediately think about BMPT;).

      It would probably fit 24 cam

      The Mi-24 has a quite sonorous and more suitable name - "Crocodile" ... And we did not call anything "terminators" - both the Su-37, and BMPT, and the Mi-8AMShT mentioned in the article (not to be confused with the Mi-8MTV -5, but more on that below) ...

    The task of the Army in peacetime is to prepare itself daily and hourly for the defense of your Country! I am glad that our President understands this well and spares no effort and resources for this, despite the resistance of the liberal, economic bloc of the government!

    As they said, the news is definitely good, but brothers ... It's Mi-8! He's a model for a hundred years at lunchtime! Something newer should be allocated to the army masses and built ... Well, with all due respect, the Mi-8 is already old, he needs to retire. It has long been necessary to put the Ka-52 into the army, where are our "sharks"? Even the Mi-24 is already an old veteran of the Afghan war, let alone the Mi-8 ...

      Dear, let it be known to you that even the Americans recognize the superiority of the Mi-8th, and complain that American industry will not be able to issue a device of this level for another 5 years. Last year’s interview with some Amer’s general. Therefore, for Afghanistan, aemra bought Mi-8.
      And nonsense about the Ka-50! You generally understand the difference between the Mi-8 and the Ka-50. For a laugh, tell us where in the Ka-50 you will put 24 paratroopers in full combat gear. And after the landing, support this landing with "fire". But about the old one, you understand the abbreviation !? Mi-8T and Mi-8AMTSh, the difference in letters hides decades of improvement of the wonderful machine, from the engine to the armament, even the fuselage has changed its appearance if you are an attentive person.

    an enemy voice from all sides yells that Russia in Syria will finish the entire budget and does not notice when considerable funds are spent on maintaining combat readiness. They wish out what is wanted for the real. They previously thought that the Russians did not have money for decent weapons.

    "Terminators" nicknamed the Mi-8AMShT (manufacturer - Ulan-Ude), but in the photo under the heading Mi-8MTV-5 (manufacturer - Kazan). The visual differences between them are subtle, but they are ...
    However, a closer look, dear author ...

    Bombing from transport helicopters? What is the point of such training? Is it Mi 8 that is sent to combat missile bombing missions? How many articles I read about helicopters, I just can’t understand:
    a) Why do they make a combat "terminator" out of a VEHICLE?
    b) Why such a wide range of attack helicopters: Mi35, Mi28n, Ka52. What can one and other helicopters cannot? What exactly do they complement each other so that they need to produce THREE separate machines?

    Heh, so the enemy is clearer))) This is the same if the Americans called their "Apache" Dobrynya Nikitich, for example.

    And what about the AB caliber on the Mi-8? Somebody knows?
