Air Missions: Hind

Respect for all helo pilots, those things are pretty damn hard to fly (on pilot difficulty setting)!
Fun game!

If you love Soviet helicopters and especially the Mil helicopters then this is the game for you ! now with the winter sale i recommend you to buy the ''Air Missions: HIND - Deluxe Edition'' it comes with all the available DLC's so you can also fly a MI-8 ''HIP'' / KA-50 ''HOKUM'' / MI-28 ''HAVOC''
the game takes place in 4 different areas of the world Central Asia, Eastern Europe, Arctic Ocean and Southeast Asia. And a another amazing option is that you can customize your heli before the mission starts, think about which heli you wanna fly with, which camo(skin) you wanna use, and the choice of Various weapons you can use during a certain mission.
If you are new in the world of helicopeters then the game will give you options to tweak the settings. but if you are a veteran (like me) flying helicopters in games as Arma 3, Heliborne and more. then go for a challenge

Pretty decent game. Definitely more on the arcadey side, but you can tweak the difficulty and flight model of if you wish. Definitely a lower budget game, and since I'm a big Hind fan there were a few "discrepancies" but really those are just nitpicks. I bought the deluxe edition because you get all the DLC helicopters (I am also very fond of my beloved beluga, the Mi-8 :D) As far as I can see this game is kinda abandoned by the developer. There are some bugs present and from what I read on the community forums, I guess there was more content in the console release?
Other than that it's a pretty solid game. Definitely not for the hardcore simmers who play DCS or even Arma. But, it's easy to pick up and kinda fun (even if I couldn't finish the stupid jungle mission in the campaign.) My only big nitpick is the sound design, very sound libary ahh SFX, but as I said, it's a lower budget game. That leads to another thing: I think the price should be a tad lower. Maybe 10 dollars for the base game, 15 for deluxe. Graphics are nothing to write home about either, but there is definitely decent detail on the helicopters themselves. This works in its favor because a toaster PC could probably run this. I was really excited when I found out you could customize all the weapons on the pylons like in War Thunder or Arma 3. Personally, I'm a 9M17 Fleyta AT-2 enjoyer, the older ATGMs are harder to aim (much like in real life) but that's the challenge and the fun part. I was kind of sad they didn't include the Mi-24P variant with the side mounted 30mm autocannon, while it would be harder to aim, it would've been awesome af to use in the game. I was a bit confused why you could equip air-to-air missile launchers (specifially the Igla launchers) but later in the campaign and in the "instant action" mode, you fight OTHER helicopters and FREAKING MIG-21 JETS! I will say, I tried the MiG mission, hard af. I dunno how tf anybody could beat that mission.
Overall? Pretty decent game, 9/10. Would give it a 10 if they lowered the price a tad and fixed some of the bugs. I'd say there is some semblance of replayablity due to the mission editor. Would be sweet if this game had mod support but..then again...we already have Arma. It also has multiplayer, both PVP and co-op. I have not tried it but I might update this review after I have. I also might pick up the PS4 version to see if anything is different. If you are a fan of Soviet airpower, this is pretty fun game.

Very good game. Has every feature you could ask for and no fancy shit.

Great game works really well with Logitech Extreme 3D pro Flightstick

Fun little arcade sim its challenging and works great with my flight stick. nowhere as polished as ace combat but it works

What Putin he's army was. what he tought Ukraine would be. Unrealistic That the MI - 24 actualy maintaned and fly.
