เฮลิคอปเตอร์ของลัทธิวันสิ้นโลก
Many may remember the Aum Shinrikyo cult's sarin gas attack on the Tokyo subway in 1995.
But did you know that in addition to attacking public transportation systems, the Aum Shinrikyo cult also had plans to use helicopters to attack Tokyo with the same poisonous gas?
So how did this doomsday cult get the helicopters? Today, Valor Tactical will tell you.
The Aum Shinrikyo cult, as we all know, is a Japanese doomsday cult founded by Shoko Asahara, which has caused many outrageous events.
Such as the Matsumoto Sarin Gas Attack and the Tokyo Subway Attack using the same poison gas.

Not only that, the Aum Shinrikyo cult's plans are so extreme that they use helicopters to drop 70 tons of sarin gas over Tokyo.
However, the plan never materialized because after the Tokyo subway attacks,

The Tokyo government has launched a massive crackdown on the cult, raiding cult headquarters across the country. But what really shocked the government was
The headquarters of the Aum Shinrikyo cult in Kamikūishiki Village, Yamanashi Prefecture, where police found a Mi-17 helicopter parked there.
Openly in the open, this Mi-17 helicopter used to belong to the Azerbaijani army before being smuggled into Japan. The reason why the Aum Shinrikyo cult
The Mi-17 was able to be procured as a result of the collapse of the Soviet Union.
In 1992, Shoko Asahara met with Alexander Rutskoy, then Russian Vice President, and the two discussed the project.
The cooperation in Russia requires a large amount of money from the Aum Shinrikyo cult, and what Asahara will get in return is that his cult will be able to reach out.
Russian weapons and military training were provided, and soon the cult sent 45 members, including Kiyohide Hayakawa, the deputy leader of the Aum Shinrikyo cult.
Trained in the use of various weapons with military personnel from the Russian special forces. And not only military training, the cult also provided AK-74 assault rifles.
A number of them, blueprints for an AK-74 rifle and a Mi-17 helicopter were also recovered from Russia, all of which were transported back to Japan in 1994.
As part of Asahara's plan to use weapons and helicopters, he was to start mass-producing AK-74s using the blueprints he had obtained for his cult members.
It will be used to fight the Japanese government, while the Mi-17 helicopter will be used to drop 70 tons of sarin gas over Tokyo.

However, Asahara's plan never proceeded because it was blocked by the Japanese government.
After police raided the Aum Shinrikyo cult headquarters, Japanese authorities discovered that only a handful of replica AK-74s were produced by the cult.
In addition, about 20 KGB military manuals translated into Japanese were found. As for the Mi-17 helicopters, they were seized and stored.

Until 1998, when the helicopter was sold to the Djibouti government at a low price and entered service with the Djibouti Air Force in 2001.
