+Gepard Posted April 10, 2012 Posted April 10, 2012 Hi folks, when i served out my army time 23 years ago, i was in a helicopter squadron which used the Mi-2. Sometimes our birds were armed with 4 machineguns PKT or two Mars-2 pods. Our pilots were more or less satisfied withe the Mi-2. It was said, that she was a little bit underpowered and underarmed. But i remember that one pilot said (or was it the weapons officer of our base? Its a long time ago!), that in Poland the Mi-2 was used with Maljutka ATGM's and a 23mm gun and that some Mi-2 were use the Strela as air to air missile. It was a rumour, but now i'm curious. Does someone can confirm that the polish forces used Mi-2 with ATGM's, 23mm gun and Strelas? And is the Mi-2 still operational in Poland? Thx Michael (Gepard)
+Kulbit80 Posted April 10, 2012 Posted April 10, 2012 Yes Michael, it's Mi-2URP-G Gniewosz, if i don't wrong still operational... (slowly retiring)
