Another batch of Mi-28HE delivered to Algeria

The next 2 helicopter Mi-28НЭ “Night Hunter” was delivered from Russia to Algeria according to the previously concluded contract, it transmits Interfax-AVN Post regional resource menadefense.net.

“The Algerian Air Force received today two MI-28HE helicopters as part of the contract for the supply of 42 machines of this type produced by the Rostvertol plant,” the portal said.

As previously noted by representatives of the Russian defense industry, the contract for the supply of combat helicopters to the Algerian Defense Ministry will be fully completed by the fall of 2017. The first batch of vehicles was delivered in early June.

Help Agency: The “Night Hunter” version with dual controls was developed at the request of Algeria. Dual control allows you to control the machine from both the pilot's cabin and from the operator's cabin. In 2014, a prototype Mi-28HE with dual controls was manufactured. At the end of 2015, the state joint tests ended. In the list of advantages of the improved helicopter - high maneuverability, the possibility of round-the-clock use, high firepower, increased survivability ".

Do not go "spirits" to Africa for a walk. Let them fly and remind of the Russian defense industry. Happy service.

Too bad a file. Joke. But seriously, Russian engineering, especially in the defense industry, has been frankly happy over the past three years.

Welcome
Yes, you also don’t know to be happy that our gunsmiths are fulfilling the contract with the Algerians and our combat helicopters are spreading around the world, plus Russia is getting money, or crying because the "Night Hunters" with dual control plus (finally!) armament of Algeria and not the army of the Russian Federation ... It remains to be hoped that the entire technology of the pro-va will be tested on the "Algerian" Mi-28s and they will begin to come to our VKS without "Children's diseases". And the demand for such machines is now more high for the army than ever ...

P.S. To such a seemingly complete modification of "Mishka" I would only like to add ammunition for the cannon, 250 rounds (even for such an excellent weapon as the 2A42) is not enough in comparison with 1200 shells of the notorious "Apache". Moreover, the 2A42 is far superior to the Apache's M230 Chain Gun in range / accuracy / lethal / penetrating action. The Americans, showing in the video the combat use of their vehicle, in 80% of cases, show shooting at targets from a cannon and not from "hydras" or (even more so) HF. "Hunter" with good ammunition for 2A42, hovering at a distance inaccessible to small arms and MANPADS (hello "President") could calmly and methodically annihilate "Spirits" as in a shooting range, (which the Americans are doing now in their videos) but much more efficiently " Yankees "due to their guns, armor and the protection system of the helicopter itself.

Apache does not fire a cannon outside the affected area of ​​MANPADS.
MANPADS firing further. another thing is that not everyone has them.

MANPADS firing further. another thing is that not everyone has them.

That's right, the plus sign is honest. Moreover, even 6 km of ATGM is already unacceptably small. The Mi-28 was certainly not designed for cannon firing. The Mi-24P was enough for this. After the cowboy Hollywood movies, it's hard to explain. Even Donbass, having landed at once for fans of "selfies" from a helicopter, does not teach anything.

[Skubudu]

Americans in 80% of cases show shooting at targets precisely from a cannon, because their cannon was created specifically for Apache and its capabilities and impact allow the helicopter to conduct targeted methodical fire at targets that we admire on YouTube.

MI-28 CANNOT conduct effective accurate methodical fire from the 2A42 gun because this gun has a return that the helicopter is unable to handle.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Adt2beGqNr4
you can see what a huge spread of shells is going on, the accuracy is almost zero, so we see how our helicopters work only with NURSs. If someone wants to prove the opposite, video ala Apache - to the studio please.
here on this video there is a KA-52 shooting on it the location of the gun in the center more or less eliminates the recoil and firing a heap, but the picture quality is terrible, and this is 2015.

With the gun on the Mi-28 everything is in order. On the Internet there are few videos with gun firing, but this does not prove that there is a problem with recoil. It can be seen that there is almost no return, everything flies very closely https://youtu.be/khxh-kjf_iw?t=1m43s

[Skubudu]

By a video with a heap of cannon fire, I meant something similar to this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvrsWX0328g
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmT76rjoNUI
For all this, the noise level of the helicopter in the video allows you to remain unnoticed before the shooting.
And what about the noise level of MI 28?

Long. The Moscow Region simply didn’t want to pay extra equipment, but ordered the Avangard-3 theme immediately (radar + dual control + new avionics + new features). Next year, they will complete the testing of an experimental board on the topic, and then an order for a series.

Here, according to NM, the progress for 2015:
Development of new models of aviation technology. Component of the ROC: Avangard-3 ["product 296", Mi-28NM] in the scope of work carried out at the expense of extrabudgetary funds. The work is carried out under the contract concluded with JSC “MVZ im. M. L. Mila ".

In the reporting year, financing of work in the direction allowed:

make a prototype of the product;

ensure participation developer in conducting state (special) joint tests;

provide manufacture and supply of prototypes of components for the production of a prototype of the product;

provide advance manufacturing work PKI prototypes for completing the avionics stand and the creation of those. first-aid kits for the period of testing.

Completion of funding is scheduled for 2017.

The list of advantages of the improved helicopter includes high maneuverability, the possibility of round-the-clock use, high firepower, and increased survivability ”

So such criteria are set for all combat helicopters. Therefore, probably not advantages, but established standards and preferably with a margin.

Another batch of Mi-28HE delivered to Algeria

Everything is fine!
And not delivered to the Russian army the next batch of helicopters.
All OK!

[Lt. Air Force stock]

In Syria, for some reason, Mi-28s fly without a radar, do we export better equipment than for our army again for export?

[Berkut24]

US News: A world-class gas station, completely isolated and torn to pieces, continues to manufacture and sell state-of-the-art combat helicopters.

Our bears are still good devices. Everyone needs it! Yes, few can compete with them!

[Ugrumiy]

When will we finally hear that the Mi-28 regiment was surrendered to the Russian Ministry of Defense, and not a couple of helicopters flew off somewhere to Algeria or another Zimbabwe? Why rejoice?
