Longest of long shots - photo of a North Korean Mi-26???


Recommended Posts

Anybody ever seen even a bad photo of a North Korean Mi-26 Halo? They reportedly have two of them. I'd give parts of my anatomy to see a pic of one.

The fact that North Korea has Mi-26s is less surprising than the fact that even one of them is flyable! I read recently that near 75% of their air force is cannibalized / airfield decoy status. (Their pilots get about 30 hours of flight time a year!) ZDoes the Congo have any Mi-26s. I read that the deal for 2(?) fell through. One went to Russian Emergency Services and the other was an Mil sales demonstrator. It was seen in Holland with Congolese markings, but different style markings on either side.
