Two new Ka-52 Alligator helicopters entered the military unit of the army aviation The 4th Army of the Air Force and Air Defense, deployed in the Krasnodar Territory, said the head of the press service of the Southern Military District Vadim Astafiev.

Currently, the manufacturer’s specialists in the air regiment produce the final assembly of the Ka-52 helicopters, followed by a control flight and the final transfer of military equipment to the personnel of the military unit

- said Astafev.

He recalled that, in accordance with the re-equipment plan of the troops of the Southern Military District, the fleet of this military unit since the beginning of the year has been replenished with four helicopters of this type.

The Ka-52 "Alligator" combat attack helicopter is intended for fire destruction of armored vehicles, manpower, and enemy helicopters and is an upgraded version of the Black Shark Ka-50. According to experts, in comparison with its predecessor, it has better aerodynamic characteristics, is less noticeable for radar, increased speed and maneuverability. Management is designed for two pilots, which increases the efficiency of maneuvering and combat use of the "Alligator".

I like the cabin of this helicopter, the crew is conveniently placed

[Simon]

Commendable! The southern borders of our homeland are becoming stronger!

Two new Ka-52 Alligator helicopters entered the military unit ...

WILL BE LITTLE

[Herculesic]

And why do not they put on a sub-muzzle radar?

[Firework]

possibly technically difficult

[Alexmi]

laughing about the Mi-28 NM it was the same thing, you got stuck on "this miracle" ??? over-radar radar))) coaxial scheme and another meter would be 2-3 radar radios, generally super))

[Flyer_64]

And why do not they put on a sub-muzzle radar?

Why do they need a sub-radar radar?

[Corsair0304]

Very good.
The helicopter fleet is slowly being updated. Still would accelerate this matter.

[Alexey-74]

That's right ... now the most stressful areas are the Western and Southern military districts and the latest helicopters, by the way.

[Dezinto]

I flew on it in a computer simulator, affinity car! - 300 km per hour gives out. And the weapons are diverse.

[Alexmi]

Yes, you're straight "expert" of the machine !!!! solid plaque?

[Voyager]

Well, it should be recognized that if it is about the same DCS, that there is a logical development of Locke, then the simulator is very serious, and understanding, albeit theoretical, it gives, respectively, serious. Otherwise, a true connoisseur can be called either the one who designed / built the plane, or the one who really flies on it)

[Dezinto]

solid plaque?

pff, .... of course solid! I flew all year, I know every button!

Simulator and real flight are two different things. There was once a simulator of Mi-24v and Mi-14pl helicopters that accelerated to 400 km / h. Speed ​​is not an indicator. That maneuverability is, yes. From the earth to one hundred deaths with rotation around its own axis. Mi-28 can also do this, but a little more slowly. One is unusual. The PMV review is not enough. But this is a matter of skill.

[Palagecha]

Army Aviation, Comrade Supreme, cannot support us! Why, General? The pilot fell ill ... Having carefully considered, I came to the conclusion that it was in time for my approximate death from old age, if I didn’t drop my hooves from such a pension and prices as before once the right number of helicopters arrives at the Air Force ...

[SmokeR 47RU]

I agree to all 100%. Already the soul hurts from this.

In the 20th year, AA will be fully equipped for state defense. You will have time to run into.

[Archivist Vasya]

Good helicopter! In my opinion, better than the Mi-28N

[Voyager]

pilots also think so

A difficult question, a lot of opinions and different. From experience, I’ll say when the fleet came to the same type and removed from service the Mi-14 in all versions in favor of the Ka-27, because It was more modern and better. But time passed and there is an understanding that it was done in vain and the characteristics of the porridge were overstated. Each helicopter has its own niche.

[Alexmi]

I agree completely, now there are attempts to restore the development of the Mi-14, but as it turned out a lot of documentation was lost

[Galleon]

The news from defense defense repair companies is sorely lacking: “a MI-8 helicopter was scheduled to be repaired”, “a fuel truck was repaired in the Eastern Military District on the basis of ZIL-131”, “an UAZ was fixed to the commander of a motorized rifle regiment”. Or even better: "food was brought back to military unit 45652" ... Well, that's normal. We’ll talk about food, and about UAZs, and about every helicopter - without fail!

[_Jack_]

what can you do, these are the capabilities of our defense industry, do a few

[KERMET]

"... According to experts, in comparison with its predecessor, it has better aerodynamic characteristics, less noticeable for radars, increased speed and maneuverability ..."
In my opinion, this is not entirely true, but rather the characteristics were left at the level of the predecessor

[Archivist Vasya]

There is an opinion that when the fire control system is at a more advanced level of automation than now and human participation is reduced to piloting only, the Ka-50 will return.

[Galleon]

Alas, I can’t agree with you. The capabilities of the military-industrial complex are greater, they are given the opportunity to do several. According to various estimates, the number of attack helicopters in our aircraft is about 1120, the United States is 6190, and the rest of NATO is 2780. Such a picture. This does not mean that we should have 10000 attack helicopters, but I want to have them at least twice as much as now.

[_Jack_]

while the budget is formed on the sale of natural resources it will not be possible to order more - there is a lot of money

[abc_alex]

What are these? In 2012-2020 In the interests of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, 143 conventional and 32 naval Ka-52s were manufactured. Another 50 will be made for Egypt.

[_Jack_]

so you answered "what" - about 20 pcs. in year

And let's talk about food

This is outsourcing. Speaking of cars. Do much more than helicopters, especially UAZ.

[SmokeR 47RU]

At first I did not understand the heading, I re-read it.
Why are you kidding me !!!?
What 2 Ka-52 !!!?
This is serious news or a purchase of 12 Orsis pennants.
Two army turntables for the whole DISTRICT is like a grain of sand on the beach.
And at the same time, we sell the S-400 divisions to the Turks, the latest Dryings, not visible to countries on the map.
Is this not nonsense and fraud !!!?
In Soviet times, there was a very correct plan - to saturate your own troops first, and then abroad!

Well, we have more than a hundred of them in service. Apart from other helicopters. And so a lot of them do it every year, about two times like the news. Even if they came in hundreds, the total number of helicopters in Russia would not change, because they go instead of Mi-24. Before you put a new helicopter in the army, you must first write off the old one.

Since the beginning of the year, 6 KA-52 helicopters have already come to this regiment ... It’s impossible to immediately deploy 2 dozen

Well, do not swear and waste your nerves. Reread again. These two vehicles came to the same regiment. Since the beginning of the year, 4 more KA-52s have arrived there. Prior to this, last year, similar machines were also delivered to the Budyonnovsk regiment .. South-East Europe still has these machines in the Crimea. so supplies are coming. And they go according to plan. But "I want, I want" - alas, it doesn’t roll

[SmokeR 47RU]

Really, "not enough, not enough!"
Now I don’t remember exactly, but in my opinion the United States has more than 4 thousand combat helicopters and about 2 thousand in NATO Europe, and we have about a thousand, including the Mi-8 and Ka-27,29. And the Ka-50, 52 we hardly scratch a hundred. Recently, several dozen Ka-52s were delivered to Egypt in the shortest possible time. Factory workers can increase production and a similar plant can be redesigned. There is every opportunity to produce 200-300 Ka-52 and 350-400 Mi-28 per year, it just does not "warm up the pocket" of managers (condoms).

[abc_alex]

But we have 2 (two!) Attack helicopters. Why, it’s not clear, but there is one. And another air assault. :)
And your arithmetic is not correct. Mi-28N and Ka-52 are not just “combat”, they are attack helicopters. There are not 2 of these in the United States, but 596 produced from the late 70s - early 80s. If in the 5 years since 2012 our plants produced more than 200 attack helicopters, then in the next five-year period parity will be achieved.

[Urantian]

Already as many as two !!!!! ...., a lot ...

[abc_alex]

Of course. Even the Shtatovs have one.
