In 2017, the Russian Air Force employed Mi-24P Hind gunships extensively during its intervention in Syria. Operating from Hmeimim Air Base and forward positions, these heavily armed helicopters provided close air support to Syrian Army units battling ISIS and rebel factions. The Mi-24P, with its fixed GSh-30-2K 30mm cannon and rocket pods, was ideal for striking fortified positions and vehicle convoys. Crews flew low and fast to evade MANPADS, often escorted by Mi-35M and Ka-52 helicopters. Their presence boosted Russian-Syrian offensive capabilities, reinforcing Russia's image of projecting power abroad while proving the Hind's enduring battlefield relevance. Designed as an attack helicopter gunship, the Mi-24 was first flown on September 19th, 1969. It features a distinctive tandem cockpit and is heavily armed with a combination of machine guns, rockets, and missiles, making it effective for both combat and troop transport roles. The Mi-24 can carry eight soldiers in addition to its armament, offering versatility in various military operations. Known for its speed and durability, the Hind has seen extensive use in numerous conflicts worldwide, earning a reputation as a formidable combat helicopter. Its advanced versions continue to serve in many air forces today. © Copyright 2003-2026 The Flying Mule, Inc.
