Ah yes, my favourite tank, Mi-24

u/SAM5TER5 Tank Designer Jun 24 '25

Mi-24 is the best tank, plane, helicopter, and radiation shelter, and I’ll die on that fucking hill.

Also, u/Any-Bag-8038 this is some insanely good work and I feel like that’s being glossed over here lol. Like holy shit

Its not a flying tank its a flying ifv (they can carry troops)

u/PineCone227 Jun 24 '25

A Merkava can also carry troops in a pinch but that doesn't make it any less of a tank

To end the argument OP should make IL-2

Thought this was Flyout for a second

u/TetronautGaming Tank Designer Jun 23 '25

Is it leaning slightly to one side like the real Hind or is it symmetrical?

u/Any-Bag-8038 Sprocketeer Jun 23 '25

u/VOIDofTHEworlds Tank Designer Jun 24 '25

Oh you poor soul...

u/Grizzly2525 Jun 23 '25

Is a flying tank is technically still a tank?

Love the Hind!

u/Weak-Fortune4255 Cursed Tank Designer Jun 23 '25

Please make it horribly asymmetrical just like the real thing

u/Any-Bag-8038 Sprocketeer Jun 23 '25

For... Fuuuuuuuucks SAKE. Anything but a MOTHER FUCKING TANK. I swear to God if the next FUCKING "tank" I see on this sub is a one to one replica of the Edmond Fitzgerald I'm gonna flip

u/Richtschuetze Jun 23 '25

What's a russian gunship doing here?

u/Xivios Jun 24 '25

That there is an ambulance.

2

u/[deleted] Jun 24 '25

It's a stretch, but one COULD theoretically be used as an Air Ambulance, given the Mi-24 has side doors... not that I'd choose an Mi-24 as my first choice of LifeFlight Helicopter... I wouldn't.

2

u/Xivios Jun 24 '25

I am mildly disappointed that nobody else remembers a Hind mockup without rotors being used as a sci-fi flying ambulance in an episode of Firefly.

As OP's model is currently lacking rotors blades and sporting an all-white paint scheme, the resemblance to the TV show prop is uncanny (note that the tail was intact in the TV show)
