BansheeDue to increased Maoist rebel activity within the kingdom of nepal. the UK helped finance and broker an arms package to upgrade that countrys armed forces. This included several Mi.17s.
This Mi-17 seems to have been caught in a strong cross wind whilst attempting to land at a remote outpost.

Another view of a Gazelle posted in the Iraqi thread.
A few interceptor MiG-25s were delivered to Iraq.

A tester for yous now!. 😉
This sand and brown coloured Mi-35 is pictured just before its national markings have been applied, and is circa 2005. To whom does it belong???.
My guess is, that it originates from africa. The machine is ex ukrainian.
Brunei is a customer of the SF-260, and is unusual in that they were delivered in a non-camo scheme…pretty smart all the same!.
The Bo105 has found favour with many a para-military organisation. The Indonesian Police being one such customer, equipped with locally built machines.
Search and rescue is a role that is carried out by the Bell 205A-1 within, the Philippines AF.
BansheeThanks very much!!! A really great find. Are you sure these pics were taken during the election? I’m asking because the Su still wears the old flag which was replaced some months ago.
Hi Fabe,
Yes, the pics were apparrently taken during the recent elections. Maybe the new marks are applied to, as and when aircraft enter maintinance?. Since i would of thought that their fully operational aircraft, are a little busy fighting a war 😉
BansheeCongo DR Air Force!

BansheeBanshee post 868
you posted a pix of Cessna 140 but what country? Use of 140 I only have found reference to Guatamala and Nicaragua using them.
The pix listed as Pa-34 Navajo is a Beech Baron version?May I make a suggestion to all that when posting pixs from many different countries mod the the pix label to reflect country and aircraft instead of just a bunch of numbers.
Thanks for all the pix’s
Chris
Hello Chris,
The Cessna 140 shown is from Haiti. The faded remains of the roundal can be seen under the wing. It was found within a dump at Port-au-Prince along with other ex Haitian military aircraft.
More info can be found at LAAHS. 🙂
BansheeCurahee80 kindly offered us this Venezuelan Mi-17 in post #858.
flex297 said that there are no modern equipments on board except a GPS…
What is it than this piece of hardware brutally highlighted in red? Looks like some kind of night vision kit…any thoughts?
In fairness to Flex, i assume he was referring to the SAR version that is entering FAV service.
The model you are referring to, is for the Army.
The box in question looks like either a chaff or flare dispenser, though im proberly wrong :rolleyes: .
Besides, id rather look at the other model, much more interesting! 😀
BansheeThats all for now folks!. Loads more to post at another time, but i leave you with one passing shot, and a taste of things to come 😀
