Szolnok Air Parade

20 August 2021

After Budapest, an air parade was also held early in the evening in Szolnok on August 20,      
Saint Stephen's Day. As in previous years, the program was implemented in the part of the      
city above the Tisza. Several thousand people were curious about the heavenly show, which      
promised to be spectacular, because for 1 hour they could admire the technique of the      
Szolnok army unit.      
As in the morning in Budapest, the weather also played tricks on the photographers here in      
Szolnok, because the setting sun was obscured by a huge gray cloud. Only at the end of      
the show, the sun was already on the horizon able to help us with extra light.      
       
In the opening group, at the top, there are three Zlin training machines.      
27 Zlin 242L MH 59. Sz.D. REB. 0846

101 AS350B2 MH 86.HE 2472
After the solo display from the AS350, in the continuation of the rotary wing program,      
a short power demo followed. As an opening element the Mil 17 starts with paratroopers.      
  Mi-17 MH 86.HE  
The paratroopers each brought a flag with them...:      
The flags they carried:

* The MH 2nd valiant Bertalan Árpád Special Purpose Brigade      
* City of Szolnok      
* Vocational Training Center in Szolnok:      
* NATO flag      
* And finally, the flag of Hungary      
After the paratroopers, one H145M came in and carried four military divers for scouting.      
11 H-145M MH 86.HE 20325
The scouts signalled that the enemy was trying to sneak into the territory of the good with a bound ship.      
Showtime for the Mi-24, which took the ship under fire with its 12.7 mm machine gun.      
711 Mi-24V MH 86.HE K220711
Another possibility of taking fire is that sniper soldiers of the special forces are      
able to target the enemy from the helicopter

While the number of people on the ship was reduced from the air, the counterattack arrived      
on the water. After entering the boat, a seriously injured person was reported by the leader      
of the attack, who asked for quick help. The presentation of another capability of the H145M      
took place at that time, a search-and-rescue version arrived, which lifted the victim of the      
scenario with the winch on the side of the machine.
