Ziggers having to decide between attack helicopter being obsolete or overpowered

How may of them are left now? Like 4 or 5?
The puccns only used them in emergency situations because they're too easy to shoot down.

Maybe that is the paradigm for helis now? Defensive and highly mobile missile trucks that lob shit from a distance

>>64132527
>and highly mobile
Well not the Ka-52, since multiple have been shot down with Stugnas.

>>64132466 (OP)
As good as the Ka-52 are, I am not sure about the future of helis in a frontline combat role.

>>64132466 (OP)
I don't know shit about rotary wing aircrafts.
Why is it superior to the Apache or the Tigre?

>>64132542
It's not.

go back to /wtg/

>>64132542
Nobody knows it's not public data just like 99% of military stuff. It's useless to ask /k/ something about the capability of a device, they don't know, they'll just spit out their preferred propaganda (nowadays it's Chinese)

>>64132585
implessive

>>64132584
This is a anti tank missile anon

>>64132592
It identifies as a flying tank.

What an ugly blocked headed mongoloid.

Apaches have killed more Abrams than the Alligator.

>>64132592
Multiple KA-52 have been shot down with ATGMs.
A few more have been shot down with beam-riding MANPADS which the KA-52 has zero working defenses against.

>>64132527
That's always been their role. They were a qrf for mechanized units experiencing the assault phase.

Ironically Russia is using NATO helicopter doctrine rather than the WARSAW CAS they pioneered in Afghanistan.

>>64132631
>beam-riding MANPADS
Starstreak, Martel or RBS-70?

>>64132466 (OP)
You forgot destroyer of combine harvesters

>>64132647
RBS-70.
Swedes provided the Ukrainians with both old and brand new versions of these systems.
Supposedly they're extremely effective against alligators. One of the main reasons the alligators aren't being used much now.

>>64132659
>>64132647
We literally had a video of a Starstreak yeeting one.

>>64132683
Didn't know that.
I wouldn't doubt those are effective too.

>>64132683
>>64132691

>>64132691
It was more the fact it was a famous video so surprised you didn't remember it.

>>64132466 (OP)
The Ka-52 is stupid because it is not as well armored as the Ka-50 before it in order to make room for two crew. The fact that they share the same cockpit stance is also stupid.

This is why more of these are downed than Mi-24s, the Russians forgot their oversights with the early Mi-24s when making the Ka-52.

>>64132644
qrd on ussr and nato heli doctrine?
t. plane autist, not heli autist

>>64132755

>>64132592
Yes, and?
