To be relatively complete with Mil helicopters in Senegalese Air Force, they also have (at least) two Mi-35, coded 6W-SHY and 6W-SHZ (post #361) and (also at least) two Mi-2, coded 6W-SHR and 6W-SHS.

Mi-2 :

DSU ??

...........yes, I forgot the meaning of it ;

In 2001, the DSU was created within the newly-created Federal Police.
In 2007, the Directorate of Special Units was integrated in the Office of the Commissioner General (CG) leading the name to change to CGSU.

The Lebanese Air Force has modified the Puma helicopters with the Aden 30 mm cannons and the Matra rocket pods from the Hunters.
