2021 Czech "Tiger" Hind up close

[upnorth]

Today, I was out at the IDET defense and security exhibition in Brno, Czech Republic and got a chance to get up close to the latest "Tiger" scheme on a Czech air force Mi-24/35 helicopter.

The squadron that operates the helicopter is a descendant of 311 Squadron, one of the Czechoslovak squadrons in the Royal Air Force during World War Two, this year marks the 80th anniversary of its founding.

311 was a bomber squadron and the current scheme incorporates the two bomber types the unit flew in the war: a Vickers Wellington and a Consolidated Liberator.

Not a word I use much - but that artwork is stunning! The tiger's head fits beautifully to the airframe.

Thanks for sharing these, as has been said on the previous posting, stunning. Let's hope it carries this scheme into next year and maybe we get a chance to see it in the UK.
