Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation plans to upgrade the entire fleet of Ka-27


The main difference of the new helicopter is the modern avionics (avionics). In particular, the Ka-27M received FH-A radar, or Spear-A. This radar is able to detect a target at a distance of 250 kilometers. A locating system can simultaneously accompany up to 10 objects, simultaneously determining their exact coordinates and type. In addition, she notices dangerous weather events, such as thunderclouds, and, finally, helps to direct weapon on target.

Ka-27M - both anti-submarine and search and rescue helicopter. The maximum flight speed is up to 285 kilometers per hour. Fuel is enough for 750 kilometers. And on the external sling you can place up to 5 tons of weapons.

        DEPARTMENT hi
        we’re troubling men in rearmament ..
        Are you embarrassed to ask with conventional weapons when attacking Russia do you suppose to fight? Do not take into account nuclear? Well, no, it’s not so. And I’m still measuring the power of probable aggressors with Borey. Well, in the sense of how many missiles and submarines of this class with full ammunition are needed. In order to send to the forefathers a probable partner who is distraught from his own exclusiveness, it is necessary.

        Meehan, well, let's say we have parity. At least some. A pair of aircraft carriers with full escort, strategists full of hardships, PAK YES in the series, targeting satellites, .. The more we accumulate, the more Western media will say that Russia wants to conquer everyone. And successfully tune the whole world around us. Threats will always accumulate, and the quantity of weapons needs logistics and application experience .. Of course, everything needs to be modernized and created. Just don't panic. If we create parity, they will beat on other fronts and prepare tricks like sudden strikes and bribes of generals and ministers. No matter how much weapons we have, the main thing is that people are ready to defend their country. You and I are ready. But I don’t know how the present young generations will be ready, despite the fact that the state “does not notice” the lawlessness that is happening everywhere. In the USSR, people knew that the state feeds and cares for them (let's not argue about this now - who didn’t like it, enjoy it now). At the moment, very many people want to become managers and specialists so that they can go abroad. And there are so many souls now and then in our country - you yourself will have to painstakingly search the Internet yourself, such statistics are not held in high esteem. In general, the main resource is people. Here they need to give birth, raise and grow.
        PS Well, the news is definitely a plus))

      It’s high time to order new ones, rather than modernizing ones.

        So there are no new ones. They haven’t done anything better. And the old ones apparently have not yet developed a resource + a helicopter for its purposes is quite successful. Why not upgrade.

    60 cars is not enough, especially since he is not expected to replace him soon, they need at least 150 cars yesterday.

      Where are 150 of them? God forbid, 60 carriers would be enough. And if you work from the ground, then anti-submarine aircraft are more effective, they say. Their truth, too, the cat cried ..

      Yes, I already wrote ...
      If you look at what they write about the pace of rearmament, you get the impression that the people want the whole industry of the country to be put on a military footing in martial law laughing

    It would be something to order.
    Oil would have remained at 140 already, and aircraft carrier projects were underway.
    Reality is stronger than Wishlist.

      Well, it's still a ship's helicopter. Until recently, the Black Sea Fleet had a whole 1 (one) - the carrier of a helicopter - the cruiser Moscow. Now there’s a couple more frigates (also one per ship) ..
