An illustrated guide to three of Russia's most renowned military helicopters and their equivalent model kits from an aviation historian. With profiles of a host of exciting designs, accompanied by a descriptive narrative history of the various types, Russian Gunship Helicopters combines practical information with reflective historical analysis, making for a visually rich volume providing modelers with all they need to know about the most exciting helicopter designs and associated model kits. This edition deals with the three principal attack helicopter types of the present-day Russian Army. The Mil MI-twenty-four "Hind", otherwise known as "the Flying Crocodile", has been produced in large numbers with many variants. The contemporary Mil-twenty-eight is broadly the equivalent of the McDonnell Douglas AH-sixty-four Apache. The Kamov Ka-fifty-two "Alligator" NATO name "Hokum-B" is in service with the Army and the Russian Navy. Well-illustrated histories and structural analyses are supplemented with detailed descriptions of the various plastic scale model kits which have been released, along with commentary concerning their accuracy and available modifications and decals. This level of detail and insight is sure to prove invaluable to a wide community of model-makers, both at home and overseas. Features:
- Profiles of iconic types such as the Mil MI-twenty-four "Hind", the Mil-twenty-eight, and the Kamov Ka-fifty-two "Alligator" - Summary of design histories and careers - Color reference for paint schemes - Critical review of available kits - Over 180 color and black and white illustrations, including twenty full color side-views and a range of various three-view line-drawings
