Flying Russian military aircraft

There is (was?) a company in Russia offering flights in Russian military aeroplanes and helicopters to anyone who was able to pay - similar to the Thundercity operation in Cape Town, South Africa, who offer flights in Lightnings, Buccaneers and Hunters. In addition to their military F/W aircraft, the Russian company offered flights in a variety of military helicopters - including the Hind. They also offered the opportunity to fire live guns and rockets from the helicopters - if you had sufficient money! Does anyone have the contact information for the Russian company?

Kwachon.

Thank you. I have looked at the three web sites but they do not appear to offer helicopter flights. I have emailed them all and maybe they will be able to help................

Trying asking Whirlybird.

IIRC, as part of her hour-building, she went to Russia to fly a Mil8. There might even be a thread about it somewhere...
