This is one of my favorite Soviet propaganda images which got a lot of use in the 1980s, a picture of a combined-arms operation involving Mi-24s and Soviet probably T-55 or T-62 tanks. Except that it's fake. Your average Soviet tank is about 11 feet wide. The Mi-24 is 57 feet long. No way this angle works in the real world. It's even more obvious in a better print.
