The Mi-4 NATO reporting name "Hound" played the role of the first Russian combat helicopter of fire support and an anti-tank helicopter adopted for service. This modification, which received the designation Mi-4AV, in addition to the A-12.7 machine gun, had suspension units for four radio-controlled ATGM 9M17V "Phalanx" and six 16-charge blocks of 57-mm unguided C-5 missiles.
The Mi-4AVS were not built specifically: 185 conventional amphibious transport vehicles were converted into this variant in 1967-1968. The operation of the Mi-4AV allowed enbled to accumulate the experience necessary for mastering the tactics of specially designed Mi-24 combat helicopters in the future.
The Mi-4 is one of the earliest Soviet helicopters to enter service. It served in many different roles in the Soviet Union and many countries around the world. In the game, the Mi-4 is represented by the armed assault transport Mi-4AV ("V" stands for "Vooruzhennyy" — "armed") variant.
