Et bien armée visiblement.

Par contre je reste sceptique quant au choix du camo... Ça doit pas être ce qu'il y a de mieux dans leurs montagnes.

[Rob1]

En même temps je me souviens d'un reportage TV sur Massoud... ben j'ai été surpris par toute la verdure qu'il y avait dans la vallée du Panshir. Très loin de l'image que je me faisait des sommets rocailleux et desertiques.

Comme quoi, tant qu'on connait pas mieux vaut rester aux suppositions

[Oxitom]

De toutes façons, en montagne ce doit etre dur de ne pas voir un helico pareil. Les Russes en ont perdus beaucoup comme ça, meme camouflé differement.

[LFabriceBZ]

Ils doivent quand même pas trop s'aventurer en montagne, bastion des talibans...

[Moos_tachu]

Aux dires d'un ami revenu de là-bas récemment, c'est beaucoup plus vert que l'on ne croit...

[DeeJay]

Pis ils s'en foutent de porter le casque !

[jakive]

le Hind, c'est quand meme une sacree bouzine

[Rob1]

Il me semble que celui de gauche soit un Mi-24V (Hind-E), à cause du désignateur laser sur l'aile gauche, alors que celui de droite doit être un Mi-24D (Hind-D). (enfin bon, réussir à différencier les deux à coup sur).

Et bizarrement, l'appareil de gauche n'a pas de lance-leurres à l'emplanture de la queue, au contraire de l'autre. Ca fait pas matos très standardisé, ça...

Etrange, il n'y a pas de marques de nationalité dessus... Et puis je trouve bizarre que les ricains les laissent voler, ils ne doivent pas avoir tout à fait les mêmes méthodes de travail que nous...

[LFabriceBZ]

La NSA Afghane peut-être ...

Bah apparement se sont des recents,
En meme temps l'invasion sovietique a eu lieu de 1979 a 1989 ......

[LFabriceBZ]

On dirait bien un équipage afghan et sans casques!

Ils n'ont pas encore reçu celui du F35. Alors ils font la gueule et la grêve du casque

[Milos]

Ben, de toutes façons, il y a un gouvernement afghan et donc une armée régulière. Mais ils ne doivent pas avoir beaucoup de ces bestioles même si le Hind n'est pas tellement cher.

Quant aux pièces détachées il y a le choix, il en traine de partout. 'sont pas soigneux ces Russes, quand même :laugh:

En même temps faut faire le tri entre les pièces d'origine et les carcasses / schrapnels de Stinger qui sont venus se greffer dessus ... pas évident ...

KABUL, Afghanistan: At the Kabul International Airport, a joint U.S. mentorship effort is enabling the Afghan National Air Corps to soar toward new heights.

"We're helping them build a good process so they can have a healthy, sustaining air force," said Maj. Rudy Alejandro, a fixed wing unit mentor.

The ANAC is comprised of three main wings: rotary, fixed and presidential. The Air Force, Army and Marine mentors work shoulder-to-shoulder with their Afghan counterparts to enhance each wing's capabilities.

The three wings have combined to perform several operations, such as humanitarian missions and training exercises.

The rotary and presidential wings have a fleet of MI model helicopters and the fixed wing features ANs-26 and 32 and L-39 Albatross, the ANAC's premier aircraft.

Air Force Capt. Seung Hak Lee, rotary wing mentor, has his hands full with his job. "They're on their way toward self-sufficiency," Captain Lee said. "However, it's a paced process that requires time and patience."

The captain has been deployed for a year, and during that time, he's seen improvements. "We recently handed over the MI-17 gunnery door program," he said. "We started by setting up the range time, providing weapons and ammo and going through all the steps."

The captain said he was pleased that on the second and third tries, the ANAC received a walk-through and then ran the process unassisted. "This has been a good experience for me," he said. "The people are very friendly and hospitable and this experience has helped me become a more effective leader."

Leading the ANAC in the training area is Lt. Col. Habibullah Logery. As a training officer, he oversees the training schedule and the practical and professional training classes.

"We have a very good relationship with our American mentors," Colonel Logery said. "We all exchange ideas and experiences for effective operations on the ground and in the air."

Colonel Logery takes incredible pride in serving in the ANAC. "My country has trained me and I want to serve it and help with the reconstruction so we can stand on our own," Colonel Logery said.

Statements like that help mentors like Air Force Capt. Joshua Wennrich perform his job as a munitions mentor. "As mentors, we're here to provide suggestions and help guide them in the right direction," he said.

Captain Wennrich doesn't shy away from expressing that his role as a mentor has been both frustrating and fulfilling. "We've had to overcome some of the cultural differences," he stated. "Nevertheless, they are learning, are excited and glad we're here to help them."

His job primarily requires him to order munitions that support the ANAC's rotary wing aircraft. "It was a great feeling when we fired off the 12-point 7 millimeter Gatling gun from their helicopter," Captain Wennrich said. "Those first-time events are clear signs that the ANAC is taking steps toward becoming a fully sustained air force."

"Their help is very well appreciated," said Lt. Col. Abdullshafi Noory. "The American mentors are very good at what they do, and we're all working together hand in hand to advance our progress."

Working with the Air Force mentors are two U.S. Marines who are providing invaluable mentorship for the ANAC as well.

"They are making progress in all areas," said Marine Master Sgt. Tony Golmon, aircraft maintenance chief mentor. "Our No. 1 objective is for them to stand on their own and adopt not the American way, but a proper and proven way that has produced results."

Marine Maj. Melvin Love is a mentor for the presidential airlift wing. This wing provides air transport for the Afghan president. The MI-17 is a pristine helicopter with state-of-the-art features to include plush seating.

"My job is to help the air corps stand up a squadron that's dedicated to this unique mission," Major Love said. "I enjoy seeing how receptive they are and how they adapt to changes. They are pretty sharp individuals and they understand the teachings."

Major Alejandro echoes that sentiment. "They are very smart and they're technically proficient," he said. Major Alejandro believes his role as a mentor is to help the ANAC reach its overall war-fighting goal.

"They want to fight their war," Major Alejandro said, "and we're helping them reach that goal. They're going to have their own style of military, not an American military, but an Afghan military that's proud to get the job done."
