Yesterday's answer

Plane-dle was Mil Mi-28.

The Mil Mi-28 is a Soviet all-weather, day-night, military tandem, two-seat anti-armour attack helicopter. It is an attack helicopter with no intended secondary transport capability, and is better optimized than the Mil Mi-24 gunship for the role. It carries a single gun in an under nose barbette, plus external loads carried on pylons beneath stub wings.
