Zvezda - Mil Mi-28Ne Night Havoc - 7255 - 1:72 

The Mil Mi-28 (NATO code: Havoc) was and still is a Soviet-made heavy attack helicopter with a full-metal, half-shell structure, with fixed landing gear, in a classic arrangement with a main rotor and tail rotor on the beam. Propulsion is provided by two Klimov-TV-3-117VMA engines with a capacity of 1970 HP each. The first prototype flew in 1982, and intermittent series production began in 1987 and continues to this day. The Mi-28's main task was originally to fight against NATO tanks. The Mi-28 was also created as a Soviet response to the American AH-64 Apache, but - interestingly - it also had to compete for orders from the Soviet Army with the native Ka-50. At first, it seemed that the Mi-28 would lose this fight. However, with the arrival of the Mi-28N version (flight in 1996), the odds changed. The Mi-28N had - compared to previous versions - better ergonomics, and, above all, the radar located in the dome above the main rotor (a solution similar to that used in the AH-64 D Longbow). In 2003, the Russian military authorities announced that the Mi-28N would be the main attack helicopter of the Russian troops. However, the first serial machines only entered service in 2009. The Mi-28 NE version was exported to Syria and Algeria. The first combat use of the Mi-28 helicopter occurred in Syria in 2016.
