Helikopter Mi-35M zasnovan je na osnovnoj verziji Mi-24, odnosno, to je modifikovana verzija ovog helikoptera, da bi mu se produžio radni vek. Urađene su značajne izmene kao sto su: novi sistem navigacije, automatski pilot, kontrola naoružanja, itd. Ugrađeni su i novi motori za veće visine, kao i rotor od kompozitnog materijala. Verzija 35M nema uvlačiv stajni trap i ima kraća krila. Zvezdina nova maketa je nastavak proizvodnje ovog odličnog helikoptera koji će se, kako je krenulo, pojaviti u svim varijantama i verzijama u vidu makete. Ko je radio ili imao uvid u kutiju sa maketom Mi-24V i Mi-24VP, takođe firme Zvezda u razmeri 1/48, videće da su primetne razlike na samoj maketi. Kako Mi-35M nema uvlačiv stajni trap nema ga ni na maketi i takođe su kraća krila helikoptera. Drugačiji su i kraci elise, pošto su kod Mi-35 rađeni od kompozitnih materijala. Podvesno naoružanje je takođe drugačije. Plastika je standardno dobra i kvalitetna svetlo sive boje. Nove su i figure pilota odlično urađene i u drugačijim pozama od figura sa prethodnih verzija ove makete. Providna plastika je kvalitetna i providna bez zamućenja. Sastavnica je jasna i lepo nacrtana. Maketa na sebi nema nitne ili zakivke, iako ih pravi helikopter ima. Kome to smeta ili ne želi da radi maketu bez nitni, može uzeti aftermarket dodatak sa nitnama za Zvezdinu maketu. Mislim da je radi Eduard. Bojenje i označavanje je dato u tri verzije što se može videti na priloženoj fotografiji iste. Boje su po Zvezdi i po Tamiji. Izuzetna maketa legendarnog helikoptera ruske proizvodnje. Ovu letelicu nabavila je nedavno Vojska Srbije, tako da će biti posebno interesantna za srpske maketare. Preporuka je u svakom slučaju za sve maketare koji žele da u svojoj kolekciji imaju maketu ove moćne mašine. Zahvaljujemo se Zvezdi na ustupljenoj maketi za recenziju. 

 Helicopter Mi-35M is based on the original Mi-24 version, that is, it is modified version of this helicopter, in order to extend its lifetime. Important upgrades were implemented in this new version, such as: new navigation system, autopilot, weapons control, etc. New engines for higher altitudes were installed, as well as the composite material rotor. Version 35M has no retractable landing gear and has shorter wings. Zvezda new model is continuation of the series of this excellent helicopter, which will probably appear in all versions as a model. Those who had a chance to see the Mi-24V and Mi-24VP models from Zvezda as well, will notice striking differences on this model compared to them. Since Mi-35M has no retractable landing gear, it is not available on the model and the wings are shorter. The blades of the rotor are different, made from composite materials. Weaponry is all different as well. The plastic is of standardly good quality in light grey color. Pilot figures are excellent as well, and they have different positions when compared to the figures of previous versions. Transparent plastic is of good quality and transparent without blur. Instructions are understandable and nicely pictured. The model has no rivets while the real helo has, if someone wishes to add them there is an aftermarket set available, I think from Eduard. Painting and marking is available in three versions (as can be seen in the photo). Paints are Zvezda and Tamiya. Excellent model of legendary helicopter from Russia. This aircraft was recently obtained by the Serbian Armed Forces, so this model will be of special interest to Serbian modelers. I highly recommend this model to all modelers wishing to have a model of this mighty machine in their collection. We would like to thank Zvezda for providing us with the sample for this review.
