Awesome pictures! It's very interesting how they use both Warsaw Pact and NATO equipment!

I think Russians are still producing Mi-24. The newest model is coled
Mi-35M
All Mi-24 in the Polish Army will be replaced in a couple of years...probably by Apache or European Tiger.

As for the Mi-24 Polish Army decided that it is a waste of money to modernize them because it's an old technology.
That’s why they are going to be replaced.

During my time in Afghanistan, I worked with a number of Polish Soldiers. Very good group of folks. Though as nails. That is why I always wanted to travel to Poland. Also, from my time working with them. It changed my opinion of the Polish Military. I thought that after the fall of the Warsaw pact that Poland was nothing but a thrid rate military power. But when I saw them in action. I was blown away. It is a top notch fighting machine. Hardcore and battle tested.

Also, as a side note, the sight on that rifle is an American Designed Eo-Tech Model A65.12. Great sights, I had one on my Service issue M4 carbine and on my personal M4 Carbine. THey have a battery life of 800 hours and run off two simple AA batteries.
