Mi-24 paintjob pictures

I got these pictures in a email, and was wondering if the paintjob is real? It looks like it could be photoshop in some of the pics, but I'm not sure


Edit: I found this

www.snopes.com...

Looks like its a Hungarian airforce helicopter used for display purposes only

A rather nice paint job indeed.
I think the local bird population would certainly sh*t somewhat.
Nice find

well, at least no one will question whether its a bird or a plane.

lol i think its not only the birds that will have a fright. i magine driving along and this thing comes in front of you suddenly. i bet sure as hell that i am gonna go what the ***** few times

And comes complete with anti-tank bird-poo too....eek!

I don't see why it shouldn't be real. It's just really creative and looks eerily realistic. I have to look very closely just to see the painting aspect.

Very nice I have to say. Wished I had that kind of skill. What would you color an Apache?

one of my friends sent me an e-mail about this a while back. i think it's pretty sweet

Personally I would go for either a mean looking uncle sam scheme, or maybe a fierce apache warrior

yeah id does look cool, but i think its meant to be an extreme type of camouflage. like people look up for some reason and due to the altitude of the heli, they think it really IS an eagle. at large distances you dont see the blades spinning
