Production of the combat helicopter Mi-24V started in 1976. This version
was equipped with the radically new antitank missile system "Sturm-V"
with guidance system "Raduga-Sh", capable of striking targets with the
highest accuracy – more than 92%. In other words 9 or even 10 out of 10
discharged missiles hit their designed targets. The Mi-24V excelled its
American counterpart, AH-1S Super Cobra in combat efficiency. From 1976
to 1986 about thousand Mi-24V were manufactured in the USSR. These
helicopters saw action during the Afghanistan conflict as a part of the
Soviet Armies. Many of them were exported in several countries allied
with the USSR. Nowadays the Mi-24V is still the backbone of the Russian Army Aviation.
