The Soviet and later Russian '''[[Mil Mi-24]]''' helicopter has hadbeen produced in a large number of variants, as described below.
==History==
The [[Mil Mi-24|Mi-24]] ({{lang-ru|Миль Ми-24}}; [[NATO reporting name]]: '''Hind''') went from drawing board in 1968 to first test-flights in less than eighteen months. The first models were delivered to the armed forces for evaluation in 1971. The ''Hind-A'' did have a number of problems: lateral roll, weapon sighting problems, and limited field of view for the pilot. A heavy redesign of the aircraft front section solved most of these problems.
