History:
The Mi-35M Hind-E is a modernised variant of the renowned Soviet Mi-24 attack helicopter, developed by Mil Moscow Helicopter Plant. Introduced in the 2000s, the Mi-35M features a host of upgrades including all-weather operational capabilities, night vision avionics, shortened stub wings, and fixed landing gear for improved durability. Retaining the Hind’s iconic design and dual attack/transport functionality, the Mi-35M is capable of carrying eight troops and delivering formidable firepower via anti-tank guided missiles, unguided rockets, and a chin-mounted twin-barrel 23mm cannon. Deployed by various nations, the Mi-35M has been used in conflicts across the Middle East and Eastern Europe. Trumpeter’s 1/48 kit delivers a sharply detailed and highly accurate model, appealing to modern helicopter enthusiasts and military aviation modellers alike.
