The Ka-52M "Alligator" helicopter has been produced since 2022 at the Arsenyev Aviation Plant (AAC) "Progress" in the Primorsky Territory. The publication "Technosphere of Russia" reported how many of these machines are in service with the Russian army.
The helicopter is in demand in army aviation and not as a competitor to the Mi-28. This is a new multi-functional combat helicopter with powerful weapons and high technical data.
The most realistic estimate of the number of new generation "Alligators" already produced looks like this: more than 50 vehicles. Before that, more than 120 Ka-52 helicopters in the first version and more than 50 Ka-52K deck-based helicopters were produced.
Journalists recalled that the serial production of the Ka-52M continues, and in addition to supplies for our military, this helicopter has good export potential.
The new L-418 Monoblock airborne optical-electronic counteraction system for the Ka-52M Alligator helicopters also proved effective in countering anti-aircraft guided missiles.
Earlier www1.ru reported that the manufacturer of the S-500 Prometheus air defense system demanded almost 300 million rubles from the Saratov Aggregate Plant.
