A Czech-supplied Mi-24 Hind helicopter gunship operating with Ukrainian forces has reportedly achieved a remarkable combat record, with over 180 confirmed air-to-air kills. The ground crew servicing the aircraft ran out of space to paint individual kill silhouettes on its fuselage and have switched to using simple tally marks to record its victories. The image shared on social media provides a visual testament to the intensity of the air war and the effectiveness of this specific platform. This milestone highlights the continued role of legacy attack helicopters in Ukraine's defensive efforts.
