The Mi-24B helicopter of the Czech Air Force received a tiger color.
A video of Mi-24B helicopters of the 221st helicopter Squadron of the Czech Air Force in new camouflage was published on the Internet. The cockpit of the car was turned into tiger snouts, and the sides were painted with British and American Wellington I and B-24 Liberator bombers.
Thus, they decided to perpetuate the memory of the 311th Czechoslovak Bomber Squadron of the Royal Air Force of Great Britain. It was formed in 1940 from Czechoslovak pilots who escaped from the Nazis after the occupation of their homeland.
Since 1942, the pilots were engaged in surface patrols on British Wellington I aircraft. In 1943, they entered service with the American B-24 Liberator. After that, the pilots began to hunt for German submarines.
