Be advised there’s Djiboutian Mi-35P Hind gunships heading on our way. Take cover and engage on my command…!! :diablo:
Yep. It slowly overflew not only the ongoing Military parade held back in 2005 on the Djiboutian turf to do some fly-by in response to many cheering sounds that erupted almost simultaneously from the hilarious crowd but also to cast a rare-sighting to us compeletely unware of its fearsome presence in the horn of Africa. :dev2:
I wish there’s someone could give us better ones detailing its exotic camouflage scheme to advantage soon. Yeah.,. Anything that is splendidly done in Arabic or African color will do. 😀
Having realised through the whole process of watching them doing parade.
I figured the most off beat was probably that there’s a band of Djiboutian Military guys nicely-attired in white dress uniform sharply contrasting with their very dingy black feature. 😎
BTW. When did they start operating Mi-35P Hind gunships? I have no official record of confirming it as being sold to Djibouti excepting about eight BTR-80s listed on the Arms Transfer pages of the SPRi database. :rolleyes:
Can anyone shed some light on it?
The whole rest of photos can be described as follow.
A somewhat better view of Sudanese Mi-35P Hind taken from Al-Jazeera newspaper website. :diablo:
The Bharaini King looking the brand-new F-16C Fighting Falcon in RBAF service over at the Shaikh Isa Air Base plus a couple of Bell-412s in Bahraini Police Airwing overflying the ongoing graduation ceremony. 😀
An Iraqi Mi-8T Hip knocked down by Kurdish Rebels plus a Syrian MiG-19 placed on open display.
A serise of photos of Egyptian Westland Commando that came to carry the coffin of the deceased Arafat. 🙁
A side-splitting image of obese Tanzania’s inclumbent president who is almost
crawlingly getting off from his personal transport, Bell-412 which was
borrowed from Tanzanian Police Airwing for his travel associated with the public duty. :diablo:
Good shoots Curahee80. The syrian in open display seems a Mig-17 to me (not Mig-19).
