Iraqi ministry of defense said in a statement Tuesday.
Russia has supplied a new batch of Mi-28NE Night Hunter military helicopters to Iraq.
"These helicopters will make a great contribution in support of ground forces in their operations aimed at targeting terrorist positions and destroying [their] armoured vehicle packed with explosives," Iraqi ministry of defense said in a statement Tuesday.
The Mi-28NE “Night Hunter” is a modern attack helicopter designed to carry out search and destroy operations against tanks, armoured and un-armoured vehicles, and enemy personnel in combat, as well as low-speed airborne targets. It can operate night and day, and in adverse weather conditions.
