Mi 24
The USSR's first fire support helicopter, the Mi-24 entered service in the late 1960's. The helicopter was used extensively in the Afghanistan War. The Mi-24 is a close counterpart to the American AH-64 Apache, but unlike this and other Western assault helicopters it is also capable of transporting up to eight troops.
