The Ka-52 "Alligator" attack and reconnaissance helicopter is one of the most popular combat helicopters in the Russian army. The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation has revealed the unique combat characteristics of the rotorcraft.
The department noted that the helicopter is capable of performing special tasks in any weather and at any time of the day. Two powerful engines lift the Ka-52 into the air even with gusts of wind of 25 m/s. On the Beaufort scale such wind is classified as a "strong storm". But for the "Alligator" this is not an obstacle.
The engines also provide the helicopter with high maneuverability. The Ka-52 can move in any convenient direction and at any speed: "sideways" – with the side forward along the course of movement, at extremely low altitudes, even in reverse, while developing speeds up to 100 km/h.
The "Alligator" also has reliable protection: reinforced armor of the frontal part and main elements protects from oncoming fire, and the onboard defense system — from MANPADS of the enemy.
Earlier www1.ru reported that the newest Berdysh reconnaissance drone is ready to be sent to the troops. It will detect a car in 6 km, and a person in 2 km.
