Photos of SyAAF Mil Mi-25s - Updated III


One of the newest shots for a SyAAF Mi-25 helicopter spotted flying over a town of Lattakia's county greeting the family of one SyAAF pilots KIA. This unit carries the serial 2804. 

 
While this photo is one of the first for such helicopter, it carries the serial 2808 and armed with unguided rockets pods.

 
This still is taken from a media published on the state TV for a Syrian Hind with serial 2817.

 
We can say that this Hind which was spotted landing in Mazze AFB (Damascus) and carrying the serial 2851 is a big surprise for SyAAF observers: the sequence 51 means there are more than 48 units serving for SyAAF, providing that the highest serial been read on a Syrian Hind -so far- is 2846.

 
SyAAF Mi-25s been used intensively over towns of Dar'a, Deir EzZour, Idleb and Damascus. This one was spotted over Yabroud attacking points of insurgents in the area of mounts Qalamoon in November 2013.


Great shot for a Syrian Mi-25 also over mounts Qalamoon fitted with B-8 unguided rockets pods. Sadly the serial is not readable here.

Hi All! I suffered recently a big loss of data and rare photos I was preparing to post here due to a damage of my HDD. I will manage to recollect what I can in order to share it with you as always.

By 2014, I will start to share with you the videos of 'Aircraft and Aerial Vehicles' spotted over Syria every month. Below is the list for January 2014:

Photos of SyAAF Mil Mi-17s - Updated II


Fistful of Syrian Mi-17 photos I collected to post here. Starting with a photo for three SyAAF Mi-17's flying over Al-Omawyeen roundabout in the capital Damascus in 2012 sometime after the beginning of the Syrian uprising.

Another SyAAF Mi-17 photographed over Damascus in one of the parades showing the strength of the regime.



Mi-17 with serial 36.

Another one with serial 74, this is one of the first batch of Mi-17's delivered to SyAAF.

The SyAAF pushed its Mi-8/17 fleet into action intensively in the current uprising, either to throw the death barrels "Barameel" or for logistic supplies. This Mi-17 with serial 75 was hit with a MANPAD while flying over the northern county of Aleppo to deliver arm supplies to Nubbol and Al-Zahra' Shi'is towns. The pilot managed to land safely.

A view in Mazze airbase to the helicopters tarmac where two Syrian Mi-17's can be seen. Note Darayya in the horizon.

Another shot taken in Mazze airbase showing the same Mi-17 seen in the image above (the one to the right), note that no pylons are fitted to this helicopter.

One of the Mi-17 could be shot down by FSyA near Al-Raqqa on 15 Nov. 2013.

An amazing take for the latest Mi-17 downed over Darayya on 16 Jan. 2014. It is not clear whether it was hit with a MANPAD or with the 'Osa' the FSyA operating, more details can be found in this post prepared by our friend PFC-JOKER
