$700k for an MI-24 seems like a bargain. I like how the link for technical specifications goes to wikipedia...

  I wonder if it's the version with the star over its most vulnerable spot or not. (Later models put armor-plate over that spot.)

    They do say that it's for civilian or museum use only, so my money is on the one without the armour plating ;) Having said that, if it does have the armour plating...what's the resale value for titanium nowadays?

      half inch, 12" by 12" for $360 from Amazon: http://www.amazonsupply.com/dp/B00CNM793E http://www.amazonsupply.com/dp/B00CNM793E (Grade 2) They also have up to 4 inch thick 12x36 inch plate (only $8,000) and several other dimensions of sheets and rods: http://www.amazonsupply.com/dp/B00MB366WA http://www.amazonsupply.com/dp/B00MB366WA (Grade 5, higher strength alloy) Free shipping, no customs, brand new. I can't imagine how difficult customs would be when importing old military equipment from Russia.

        These actually seem to be coming from Ukraine.
