    Thanks guys . I will be using the 9M114 Shturm V missile on the Hind E . These were used in Aphganistan . These projectiles are in a tube. So that is what you will see on the end pylons 2 inside and out side. I have one made about 95 % but I need to make the mounting bracket that holds them.

    I have sent the main rotor and landing gear to the caster. The landing gear is no problem but we are going back and forth on the rotor. I may have to cut all of the arms off of the rotor and make them so they bolt onto the stub. Kind of like the real one . I will talk to the decal /sticker...
