-The Mi-24D entered production in 1973 and was the first major upgrade compared to the earlier Mi-24A. It was armed with a single 12.7mm four-barrel Yak-B machine-gun under the nose. It can also carry four 57mm rocket pods, four SACLOS 9M17 Phalanga anti-tank missiles. Thus this upgrades clearly put efforts on making the Mi-24 a pure gunship with excellent offensive capabilities. During the Cold War, the Hungarian Air Force was severely focused in anti air defences, and not so much on offensive capabilities. Thus their first Mi-24 helicopters were received from Germany in 1993, since they inherited a large arsenal of Soviet armament that they could not operate, a total of 20 Mi-24D/Vs were sent as a gift to Hungary.

-It was introduced in [[Update "Sons of Attila"]]. The '''{{Specs|name}}''' is a very good multirole helicopter, capable of a good top speed although a lackluster agility compared to lighter helicopters like the AH-1 Cobra. The armament is excellent for its BR, specially in helicopter Arcade Battles, with Falanga ATGMs and S-24 rockets, coupled with a ballistics computer. The gun however is very mediocre, being only 12.7mm. The helicopter however is very vulnerable to SPAA fire, specially from Gepards and other cannon armed anti air vehicles, however is even more vulnerable to air to air missiles since it lacks countermeasures.
