- Reason
- With the ongoing conflict in Georgia, I decided to look through the FPs for Russian military hardware. Finding little, I did a quick search and found this relatively high quality shot of a Polish "Hind" which might be of FP quality.

Support- I was initially afraid the background would distract, but the detail on the helo is so high as to negate that issue. --Golbez (talk) 23:15, 12 August 2008 (UTC)- In my enthusiasm to look past the background I didn't notice the artifacts; now that I do, I can't look past them. Oppose. Sorry. --Golbez (talk) 07:53, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose both - suffering from very lossy jpeg compression. de Bivort 23:30, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
- Support Edit 1 - Selective jpeg artifact removal (There was no jpeg removal on the actual helicopter to prevent loss of detail). Selective sharpening of black lines on helicopter and a slight white balance adjustment to remove yellow tinge. --victorrocha (talk) 00:08, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
- The first jpeg artifacts I noticed were in the helicopter - particularly around the multi-barreled gun thing. Good effort, but it looks unsalvageable to me. de Bivort 03:22, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose I have to agree with de Bivort, the jpeg artifacts on the helicopter make me oppose. SpencerT♦C 01:13, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
- Oppose artifacted in front of the rocket pod. Clegs (talk) 15:15, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
