For at least a decade there has been a discussion about the reasons, and above all the reasonableness, for Russian aviation to have 2 very different helicopters of this class. This is, of course, about Mi-28N and KA-52. 1 very classic, sometimes called the "Russian apache", the another unique, with 2 concurrent rotors, pilots' locations next to each another equipped with a catapult and a deck game placed on the side of the ship, moving vertically. As it seems, the Ukrainian war can reconcile supporters of both machines, as it turned out, they work best in tandem.
