Special Mission Variants

In the late 1960s, NATO introduced the Hind as a troop transport helicopter (Nato reporting name Hind-A). Soon thereafter it was upgraded to an anti-aircraft gunship variant (Nato reporting name Hind-D). Over subsequent decades other versions were developed as well, such as export Mi-35 (NATO reporting name Mi-25) and Mi-24P (Mi-24V).

All variants share a basic design, but have various modifications which alter their military application. For instance, the Mi-24R (Nato reporting name 'Mi-24RCh') is employed for nuclear and chemical reconnaissance. It features mechanisms to obtain soil and air samples, filter them out, place marker flares, camera inside cabin as well as gun and rocket pods. The Mi-24P features twin 30-mm guns while Mi-24V boasts an improved anti-tank missile system.
