Then how does he get Russian Military Hardware (AK-47's are an obvious thing to have), as in Mi-28's, which is the latest Russian Attack helicopter (aside from Ka-52), get into a terrorist's hands? They're only 48 right now, 40 in the Russian Air Force, and 42 and 10 are going to Algeria and Venezuela, respectively. That means that all the Mi-28's by 2016 would probably be in the hands of World Powers, not terrorists.
