That it is 1/72 remake and with that good quality is awesome. I love looking at unusual paint schemes, especially the Tiger Meets every year. You don't see many paint schemes on helicopters though. Is that a Russian Mi-24?

Yes, it's the 'Soviet' Hind-D, but this Hungarian owned one, was so painted for the Hungarian air display season. Another site quoted this helicopter as part of the 'Hungarian air display team'.
