That one is formerly from E.Germany, and yup I could have a go, still not sure I could hover her in anything less than a ruddy big field though

heres the info on the Hind in the pictures

Mil Mi-24D "Hind", 96+26/421, C/n. 230270110073. Built in 1981 as a ground attack/assault helicopter powered by two Klimov TV-3-117 turboshaft engines. The Hind in the museum collection is a Mi-24D variant, some 350 of which were built at factories in Arsenyev and Rostov-on-Don. Armament includes a 12.7 mm four barrel 9-A 624 machine gun, four Falanga anti-tank missiles and 80 rockets in four under wing pods. First flown on 2nd April 1981 it was delivered to the East German Army based at Basephol, North of Berlin. In early 1992 it was decided to disband the Hind squadrons and its last flight was on 24th February 1992. The German Government allocate it to the Helicopter Museum and a team went to Basephol in early 1995 to dismantle and transport it to the United Kingdom. It was delivered to the museum on 20th February with assistance from Bristow Helicopters
