Scale Model Mil Mi-24V Hind-E 05103 Trumpeter 1:35

Mi-24V / Mi-35 "Hind E" Mi-24V (Hind-E) is another improved version, a development of Mi-24D. The major change is the improved and more effective SHTURM-V missile system with 9M114 (AT-6 Spiral) radio-controlled anti-tank missiles launched from two pairs of wing-mounted cylindrical pods. Also added were B-8V rocket pods for 20 80mm S-8 rockets, UPK-23-250 pods with Gsh-23L with two guns and 250 rounds of ammunition, GUV9A universal pods that could carry a 30mm automatic grenade 9-A-800 launcher, or a 12.7mm machine gun 9-A-624 four-barrel and two 7.62mm four-barrel machine guns 9-A-622. It was equipped with TV3-117V engines with improved height characteristics and optional exhaust mixture boxes to cool the exhaust gases, and auxiliary fuel tanks with a capacity of 450 liters. Since the war in Afghanistan, Mi-24Vs have been fitted with a radar homing and warning system (RHAWS), infrared countermeasures (IRCM) and an active IRCM jammer. This equipment was also installed on some late Mi-24Ds, sometimes called Hind Ds Mod. The degraded version exported outside the Warsaw Pact was called Mi-35.
