These two pics has been taken in a hangar belonging the Russian Helicopters plant in Rostov Na Dunu in Russia. The Iraqi flag can be seen clearly on these two pictures.
The front picture shows the Flir (probably a Sagem) and the missile mounts togather with the S6 Rocket pod. The Blades seems metallic.
In November 7 Iraq has recieved a batch of four units that has been immediately engaged in the battle of Al Anbar. baghdad ordered up to 40 gunships (Mi28 and Mi35).
1-the helicopters were shipped to Iraq WITHOUT any National markings! We have the pics of them being loaded on planes to Iraq WITHOUT ANY NATIONAL MARKINGS… so how can they show these pics BEFORE shipment WITH national markings?
2-That is a hangar at New Muthanna AB (military side of BIAP) and looks completely different to any hangar in rostov.
3-Also the rocket mounts are for S8 rockets I have never heard of any “S6” helicopter launched rocket from Russia… S5, S8, S13…
4- Also the FLIR is a Russian GOES 342 unit… not a french SAGEM unit. http://www.uomz.ru/en/production/spe…42_%28ops24%29
4- and the rotorblades are from the Mi28… plastic / composite and not metal.
