Ka-52 helicopters in action

Ka-52 helicopters in action When performing combat sorties, the pilots of the Ka-52 Alligator reconnaissance and attack helicopters launched missiles at the discovered fortified strongholds and armoured vehicles of the enemy defence. After the salvo - a sharp decrease in altitude and change of course, more than 90 degrees. The impact is recorded by an objective control camera. That is brought to automatism, performed, not dozens, but hundreds of times, a maneuver that saved dozens of lives of our pilots. After helicopters’ returning to the base sites, the engineering and technical staff prepares aviation equipment for further combat work. Ammunition is replenished, heat traps are charged, fuel is poured. Helicopters must be in full readiness to carry out the next combat missions. Each sortie of a helicopter strike group is not like the previous one. Bypass routes are used to confuse the enemy. And heat traps become false targets for enemy anti-aircraft missiles. The defence system installed on the helicopter warns the crew of a possible attack. Join Military Wave Источник: Military Wave
