THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH (1999) - Russian Special Services Atomic Energy Antiterrorist Unit Land Parahawk - A Russian Special Services Atomic Energy Antiterrorist Unit land parahawk from Michael Apted's Bond film The World Is Not Enough. Russian military parahawks ambushed and pursued James Bond (Pierce Brosnan) and Elektra King (Sophie Marceau) across a mountain during their skiing outing.

This high-tech land parahawk is one of only three created by production for the chase sequence. Following production, it was purchased by the Ian Fleming Foundation, from whom it now originates. Constructed from a functional Ski-Doo snowmobile, the vehicle is modified with a black fiberglass shell, matching felt upholstery, a clear acrylic visor, a double-bladed propeller, a metal rotary belt, and four articulated metal skis for controlling its direction. It also features a 2si 460 F45 aircraft engine and a 3.3-gallon gas tank.

The parahawk's interior features a dashboard with controls for the propeller and power, metal footrests, and brake handles. It comes mounted to wooden dollies for transit and has not operated since the end of production. The vehicle exhibits chipping paint along the left side and control panel, as well as rusting to the skis. Following production, it was drained of fluid, rendering it currently nonfunctional, and no warranty is made or implied as to its functionality. Dimensions: 144" x 86" x 86" (366 cm x 218.5 cm x 218.5 cm)
