The Ka-52K is the specialised naval variant of this impressive attack helicopter. Designed for use on the new Mistral class amphibious assault ships, they have folding stub wings and rotors, anti-corrosion treatment and new fire-control radar for use with anti-ship missiles. The Mistral project has since been cancelled and the ships sold to Egypt. Russia will now supply the Ka-52Ks to Egypt, but it is unclear what future the type will have in Russian service.
This is the prototype and is seen on static display as part of the ARMY 2017 exhibition.
Park Patriot, Kubinka, Moscow Oblast, Russia.
