Mi-28N combat helicopters began to be equipped with "Strelets" complexes with 9M342 "Igla-S" self-guided missiles to combat drones. Ammunition is capable of hitting targets flying at different altitudes and at a range of up to 6000 meters.
Also an effective means against drones is the 30-mm 2A42 cannon with a firing range of up to 2.5 km. Ammunition load - 250 rounds, rate of fire - 550 rounds/min, initial projectile speed - 970 m/sec.
Suspended fuel tanks are used to increase the flight duration of the rotorcraft.
Mi-28N "Night Hunter" is an attack helicopter capable of performing tasks around the clock at extremely low altitudes. The rotorcraft has high combat survivability due to the armored cabin, energy-absorbing seats and chassis, as well as a set of measures to protect vital systems and engines.
Earlier www1.ru reported that the frigate "Admiral Golovko" launched a hypersonic "Zircon" in the Barents Sea at the direction of the Tu-142.
