Notes: The Sokol (Falcon) is a Polish helicopter used alongside Russian-made helicopters in Polish service. It is an upgrade of the old Russian Mi-2 helicopter, with its first flight in 1979. Most of these helicopters are used for troop transport and search and rescue, but some have been armed.

The W-3 Sokol is the basic model. It has hardpoints which can mount weapons, but they are more likely to be seen carrying fuel tanks. The W-3L Traszka is a stretched and uprated version of the W-3. The W-3RM Anakonda is an armed search-and-rescue variant. The hardpoints normally carry fuel, but the Anakonda is equipped with doorguns. The Anakonda has a rescue hoist with a capacity of 300 kg.

The W-3U Salamandra is a gunship version of the Sokol; it does not normally carry passengers (though it retains the capability), and is armed with twin autocannons and missiles or rockets. It is also capable of carrying high-drag free-fall bombs. The W-3W Anakonda is also a gunship version of the Sokol; however, it is the low-cost, no-frills gunship. It is little more than a better-appointed Sokol.

The W-3A was designed with Western markets in mind; it is a Sokol brought up to date, with modern avionics and electronics. The W-3WB Huzar was produced with assistance from South Africa; it is basically the Salamandra using the weapon system from the Rooivalk.
