Poland's WZL-1 military aviation works in Lodz on 30 November transferred to the Senegal air force the remaining two of three overhauled Mil Mi-24V attack helicopters. The handover followed the completion of acceptance flights performed by Polish and Senegalese air force pilots.

Following the acceptance, the rotorcraft had their main rotor blades removed and were loaded aboard an Antonov An-124 cargo aircraft operated by Antonov Airlines. The pair were then transported to Dakar.
