Check out what some of our boys across the
water did to their helicopter.

Some Afghan is probably freaking out right
about now. The story is: this very special
MI-24 helicopter is presently flying in
Afghanistan, where it is no doubt causing
quite a stir.

Thank You and God Bless to those BRAVE SOLDLIERS that already have, and currently are defending our freedom to live as we have been able to live, and to even have the freedom to be able to fly our models.
may our soldiers and our country always be in the protective shadow of our ALMIGHTY SAVIOUR

Um.. MI-24 is the designation of the Russian Hind helicopter, which that certainly seems to be.

What are our guys doing flying a Russian chopper?

Or is it our guys?

well, I guess the secret is out neither myself or the person that sent me this knows a darn thing about helicopters, or the Russians have started to defend us. sorry about the mistake . but the prayer still STANDS for our soldiers and country

Thanks and God Bless

Wings Channel had a piece just last week about the U.S. using the MI24's to train our troops.

Did the WINGS channel also mention our boys training in Russian Uniform?

I don't know why Russia painted a helicopter this way, kinda purty, but I imagine someone got ahold of some pr pictures and attached the sentiments mentioned later. Such is the way of the internet scam. 'The intentions are good' or 'The prayer still stands' Does it, if it's a lie, would your lord welcome it?

All that junk aside though, it's a cool paint job.
