The Russian Ministry of Defense continues to demonstrate the performance of combat missions by Russian military personnel in Ukraine. Among other things, the fulfillment of the tasks set by the command is carried out by the crews of army aviation helicopters. The Ka-52 Alligator attack helicopters play a special role here.

On the frames presented by the country's defense department - the destruction of the command post of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The strike is delivered by guided missiles after identifying the target on the ground.

The footage shows that the object is at a fairly large distance from the rotorcraft - about 7 km. After striking with the Vikhr missile, its consequences are demonstrated - the elimination of the enemy's command post.

After completing the combat mission, the Ka-52 helicopter returned to its home base. It is not yet reported in which region of Ukraine the destruction of the command post was carried out.

The department, apparently, closed external viewing in VK, leaving access for readers of information resources via a link.

Earlier, Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) authorities reported advancing into the city, currently controlled by Kiev's forces, after seizing control of its suburbs, including the airport.
Russian air defences have shot down a Ukrainian Mi-8 helicopter as it was flying to pick up leaders of the Azov nationalist battalion from Mariupol, the Russian Defence Ministry has stated. The aircraft was hit as it was flying over the Sea of Azov, five kilometres from shore.

"[The downed Mi-8] was heading towards Mariupol for emergency evacuation of the Azov battalion’s leaders, who had abandoned their troops", Defence Ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov stated.
The ministry's spokesman also said that on 28 March, the Russian Air Force and air defences downed two Ukrainian Su-24 (NATO reporting name: Fencer) and one Su-25 (NATO reporting name: Frogfoot) jets, as well as one unspecified drone.
Forces of the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) have, with help from Russian troops, managed to surround the city of Mariupol, seizing its suburbs, including the airport, and started to clear the city of the remaining Azov nationalist battalion fighters, the republic's authorities said.
The Russian Armed Forces are helping the DPR as a part of the special military operation launched by President Vladimir Putin on 24 February. It was started in response to a request from the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics (DPR and LPR), which had been suffering from shelling by Ukraine’s Armed Forces and nationalist battalions.

Russian Armed Forces prevented emergency evacuations from Mariupol of the command staff of the Azov regiment
Yesterday, 20:15
150





The Russian Armed Forces prevented the escape from the blocked Mariupol of the command staff of the nationalist regiment "Azov" * (an extremist organization banned in Russia). This is reported by the Russian Ministry of Defense.

According to the Russian military, today, March 28, an attempt was made to urgently evacuate from Mariupol the commanding staff of the nationalists from "Azov"*, who abandoned their subordinates in the blocked city. To do this, the control of the Mi-8 of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was sent to the city, which undertook a passage over the Sea of \u200b\u200bAzov five kilometers from the UK, but was detected by open means of control.

As follows from the message, the helicopter did not reach Mariupol, the main nationalist of "Azov" * did not get out of the city. It remains only unclear whether the air defense or aviation worked on the helicopter. The Ministry of Defense does not give explanations.

In the Mariupol region, five kilometers from the coastline over the Sea of Azov, a Ukrainian Mi-8 helicopter was shot down, heading for an emergency evacuation of Azov national battalion commanders who had abandoned their subordinates *

- says in.

In addition to the downed helicopter, air defense and aviation, three more types of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine have landed today. We are talking about two Su-24s shot down west of the village of Korosten in the Zhytomyr region and one Su-25 in the Druzhkovka area in the Donetsk region. In addition, one Ukrainian drone was shot down near Chernobaevka.

Also, from the waters of the Montenegrin Sea, there were cases of strikes with Caliber cruise missiles at natural disaster sites in the points of Ushomir and Veselovka in the Zhytomyr region. Data from infrastructure warehouses supplying the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the suburbs of Kyiv. Russian "Caliber" consume interrupted supply.

Details of the evacuation raid of the Ukrainian Armed Forces helicopter in Mariupol
1648588548447.png



During the successful advance of Russian troops in Mariupol, the militants of the National Battalion were locked up at the Azovstal site. From there, they try to make sorties in small groups to commit sabotage, but for the most part they are deserters looking for a way out of the encirclement, followed by a secret passage to the territory controlled by the Kiev regime.




At the same time, even before the start of the special operation of the RF Armed Forces in Ukraine, the Azov battalion (* a terrorist organization banned in the Russian Federation) received instructions on how to act in the event of an assault on Mariupol. A few weeks ago, one of the militants of this formation was taken prisoner. During the interrogation, he said that the battalion was given the task of providing stubborn resistance in residential areas, gradually retreating to the left bank, and ultimately sit down on Azovstal, where they would give the "last battle".

But neither the rank and file nor the commanding staff wants to fight to the last drop of blood. The details of the raid of the Mi-8 helicopter of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Mariupol became known. The DPR command reported that the rotorcraft was heading to the Azovstal site when the air defense of the republic was destroyed. The purpose of this flight was the evacuation of the "media puppets of the regime" - the leader of the neo-Nazi battalion Prokopenko and the commander of the 36th Marine Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Baranyuk. At the same time, as it became known, they did not inform even their own entourage about the preparations for flight, not to mention ordinary militants and military personnel. The unsuccessful completion of the mission of the Ukrainian Mi-8 will allow these persons to receive a well-deserved reward.

The crew of the helicopter was ordered to go at low altitude in order not to be under fire. However, the rotorcraft was discovered and destroyed without much difficulty.

After that, the Mariupol grouping of the enemy (including after negotiations in the delegations in Istanbul) has two options left - to surrender their weapons and give up further resistance, or be destroyed at the aforementioned Azovstal. After all, there is no question of suspending the fighting for the liberation of Donbass.

During an air battle, a Russian military aircraft shot down a Su-24 of the Armed Forces of Ukraine
March 30, 2022
1648763892964.png





At the next briefing on Wednesday, the official representative of the Russian Defense Ministry, Major General Igonr Kona

Su-24 of the Air Force of Ukraine was shot down in the area of the Tumen settlement in the Rivne region near the Ukrainian-Belarusian border during an air battle.

The village of Tumen is located in the north of the Dubrovitsky district, 28 km from the district center Dubrovitsa and 6 km from the checkpoint Gorodishche-Stolin on the border with Belarus.


During the day, the air defense systems of the Russian Federation hit 10 more Ukrainian drones, including the UJ-22 Airborne UAV, the Pantsir missile and gun system. Aviation destroyed three anti-aircraft missile systems of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, including one S-300 and two Buk-M1.

Also at the briefing, it was reported that over the past day, high-precision air-launched missiles destroyed large fuel and lubricant depots in the Starokonstantinov and Khmelnitsky regions, from which fuel was supplied for the armored vehicles of the Ukrainian troops in the Donbass.

In total, 124 aircraft and 77 helicopters, 214 anti-aircraft missile systems, 321 drones, 1,752 tanks and other combat armored vehicles, 184 multiple rocket launchers, 734 guns, and 1,640 units of special military vehicles have been destroyed since the start of the operation.

- said Konashenkov at the briefing.

March 31 - SM-News news agency. Russian Su-35S have already destroyed half of the Ukrainian air force
The American edition of Military Watch Magazine confirms the information that on March 30, another Ukrainian Su-24 attack aircraft was eliminated during an air battle on the Belarusian border with Ukraine. Thus, the Ukrainian Air Force has already lost more than half of its attack aircraft, writes the InoSMI.Ru portal, citing MWM
Observers report that since February 24, 2022, the Russian Aerospace Forces have successfully conquered the airspace over Ukraine thanks to Su-35S heavy fighters, which have been based in Belarus since January 2022. The fighters were redeployed from the Far East and have already made a significant contribution to the air campaign over Ukrainian lands.

Su-35S are located on the territory of the Baranovichi airfield of the 61st Fighter Air Base in the west of Belarus. Earlier, information appeared that it was these fighters that destroyed four Ukrainian Su-27s over the territory of Western Ukraine on March 5. Probably, these were the units that are based in Belarus.

DPR military shot down two helicopters with Azov commanders
DPR military shot down two helicopters with Azov commanders while trying to evacuate from Mariupol
Downed APU helicopter near Mariupol - RIA Novosti,
MOSCOW, March 31 - RIA Novosti. DPR troops shot down two Mi-8 helicopters that were trying to evacuate the commanders of the nationalist Azov regiment* from Mariupol, Major General Igor Konashenkov, spokesman for the Russian Defense Ministry, said.
According to him, the Kyiv regime made such an attempt on the morning of March 31.
"The calculation of the portable anti-aircraft missile system of the People's Militia of the Donetsk Republic from the captured American Stinger complex shot down one Ukrainian Mi-8 helicopter and crashed near the village of Rybatskoye," Konashenkov said.

Russian air defense systems shot down another Ukrainian Mi-8 helicopter
Yesterday, 11:47
113


Russian air defense continues to carry out tasks to cover ground units performing tasks for their intended purpose. According to the Ministry of Defense, over the past day, anti-aircraft gunners shot down several drones and one helicopter of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Since the beginning of the special operation, the helicopter fleet of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has been significantly reduced by air defense systems and fighters of the Russian Aerospace Forces. In the first reports, completely different figures sounded, the Armed Forces of Ukraine tried to strike with army aviation, thereby exposing the turntables to the blows of Russian troops.

Then, for some time, reports of the defeat of helicopters of the Armed Forces of Ukraine disappeared from the reports, apparently, the bulk of the Ukrainian helicopters were knocked out, the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine experienced a shortage of experienced pilots. A few days ago, information about the use of helicopters by the Ukrainian troops again appeared, perhaps they pulled up reserves. Naturally, the hunt began for the helicopters of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

According to the Ministry of Defense, Russian air defense shot down another Mi-8 of the Armed Forces of Ukraine near the village of Lyubimovka. The anti-aircraft gunners also landed eight drones in the areas of Lysychansk, Donetsk, Chernigov, Korsun-Shevchenkovsky, Novomikhailovskoye, including one Bayraktar TB2 in the Vakhovka area.

It should be noted that earlier in the Mariupol region, three Mi-8 helicopters were shot down in two days, trying to evacuate the command staff of the Azov nationalist regiment* (an extremist organization banned in Russia). One of them was shot down on approach, the other two were already returning from the city.

As the captured survivors of the fall of the Armed Forces of Ukraine stated, the evacuation from Mariupol was carried out by four Mi-8 helicopters and one Mi-24 from the National Guard of Ukraine. Later, there were reports that one Mi-24 was landed 30 km from Izyum, whether it is a helicopter or not, but the "Crocodiles" of the Armed Forces of Ukraine have not participated in hostilities for a long time.

The airfield of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Mirgorod was decommissioned by strikes of high-precision weapons
Yesterday, 19:47

1648941952275.png



Units of the People's Militia of the LPR are attacking the positions of the 57th Ombrig of the Armed Forces of Ukraine south of the city of Lisichansk. According to the latest data, the troops of the Luhansk People's Republic managed to block several Ukrainian units in the area of the village of Borovskoe, which is about 8 km from Lysichansk. As a result of the battle, up to a platoon of Ukrainian nationalists was destroyed, as well as several enemy armored vehicles, including armored personnel carriers.





The report of the Russian Ministry of Defense reported on airstrikes on military infrastructure in the cities of Pavlograd (Dnipropetrovsk region) and Lozovaya (Kharkiv region). As a result of the strikes, enemy military equipment, fuel tanks, and places where weapons and ammunition were stored were destroyed. These weapons, ammunition and fuel were being prepared for shipment in the direction of the so-called united forces, which are located in the Donbass.

The airfield in Mirgorod, Poltava region, was decommissioned. Previously, camouflaged means of aviation of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, including airplanes and helicopters, were identified by means of reconnaissance. This military equipment of the Ukrainian armed forces was destroyed by a strike of high-precision weapons. As a result of strikes on the military airfield of Mirgorod, warehouses with aircraft missiles and NURSs, as well as a fuel storage facility were also destroyed.

The airfield of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Mirgorod was decommissioned by strikes of high-precision weapons


A tactical aviation brigade of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was based in Mirgorod. Prior to the start of the Russian special military operation, more than two dozen fighter jets, including Su-27, as well as combat and transport helicopters, were located at this base.

The Russian Defense Ministry confirmed the strike with an Iskander OTRK missile at the headquarters of the territorial defense of the city of Kharkov. As a result of this strike, more than a hundred Ukrainian nationalists and foreign mercenaries who had previously arrived on the territory of Ukraine to conduct military operations against the Russian army and troops of the LPR and DPR were killed.

A little even somehow sluggishly, but for ten years there was a discussion on the Web of two attack helicopters that were in service with the Russian army. We are talking about the Mi-28N "Night Hunter" and the Ka-52 "Alligator". The machines are both similar and completely different.



There is no point in arranging another comparison of LTH figures; many people have done this before us. However, it makes sense to walk, because this is the only way to draw certain conclusions on which of the cars is better and why. Or not to draw these conclusions. However, first things first.

Not so long ago we talked about these machines separately, so it's not worth repeating.
Ka-52. Ruinous perfection
Attack helicopter Mi-28N: try to criticize

Engines, propellers and more


The engines of the Klimov helicopters, VK-2500, are completely identical.



True, in the Mi-28N part of the energy is spent on the rotation of the tail rotor, but this is not critical, and the Ka-52 has a real advantage at high (by helicopter standards) altitudes. If translated into figures of the maximum working height, then the Ka-52 can climb 500 meters higher. Another question - is it necessary?

Helicopter pilots who have flown both machines say that the Mi-28N is lighter and easier to fly. Another issue is that it is difficult to imagine in general an apparatus that is more difficult to control than a combat helicopter.



The Ka-52 is shorter, the Mi-28 has a smaller vertical profile. When entering the vortex ring mode, the Mi-28N demonstrates greater stability, but, unlike the Ka-52, it does not like side wind when landing and hovering, especially from the right side.



The Ka-52 has its own huge drawback: with very sharp maneuvers, an overlap of the blades can occur, which leads to disaster. This happened in practice and even ended in the death of pilots.

Plus, the coaxial layout of the propellers of the Kamov machine is a perfectly balanced aerodynamic system, and damage to even one blade leads to the failure of the machine, followed by an accident or disaster. And two screws quite obviously double the chance of damage to the screws from air defense.



Mi-28N inherited amazing survivability from its ancestor Mi-24. In Afghanistan and Chechnya, Mi-24s flew to the base and landed even with a completely lost propeller blade. But the Ka-52 has an ejection crew rescue system, which is very, very useful. However, we talked about rescue systems in previous articles.

The Mi-28N is more powerfully armored than the Ka-52, but the Kamov machine is definitely more maneuverable. For the Ka-52, they chose the layout of the crew members side by side, in the Mi-28N the pilot and operator sit one after another. Being nearby, pilots can interact better, especially in combat when the radio channels are overloaded, but the Mi-28N has better side visibility.

In addition, the Ka-52 kit includes the Vitebsk complex, which monitors missile launches and activates systems that make it difficult to hit a helicopter: interference, heat traps, and so on.

We will talk about helicopter guidance systems at the very end, since they contain one “highlight”, which determines the use of helicopters in the way it is happening today.
1648942481138.png

Armament
The firing range is about 4 km. But on the Mi-28N it is in the bow, rotates 220 degrees to the left and right. Ammunition only 250 shells. In the Ka-52, the gun is located near the center of mass, respectively, it shoots more accurately, but guidance causes problems, the gun is not only deviated from the longitudinal axis of the helicopter, it is pointed up and down by 12 degrees and to the right by 30. To shoot at targets on the left, you have to turn helicopter. But the ammunition load is 460 shells.



The missile armament is almost the same, but the Ka-52 has more hardpoints, 6 nodes allow you to carry up to 2000 kg of weapons, and 4 nodes of the Mi-28N - 1600 kg.

In principle, the set of weapons is similar, but the main strike force of the Mi-28N is still outdated Ataka ATGMs with a launch range of up to 6 km. The Ka-52 is armed with the Whirlwind ATGM, which can operate at a distance of up to 10 km. However, "Attack" has radio command guidance, which gives the enemy less chance to close than "Whirlwind", which is guided by a laser beam.

Mi-28 can take 16 "Attacks", Ka-52 takes 12 "Whirlwinds".

In addition, the Ka-52's standard armament includes Igla-V or Igla-S air-to-air missiles, which makes the helicopter protected from air attacks.

Guidance and observation



Here, in my opinion, the two helicopters have the most differences. The Ka-52 with its Argument-2000 sighting and flight navigation system is utterly good.

"Argument-2000" for the Ka-52 is:
- on-board digital computer (BTsVM) "Baguet-53";
- flight and navigation complex PNK-73DM;
- round-the-clock surveillance and flight system TOES-520;
- round-the-clock search and sighting system GOES-451 (connected to the Arbalet radar);
- radar complex "Crossbow";
- airborne communication complex BKS-50;
- airborne defense complex "Vitebsk";
- avionics with the use of MFD and helmet-mounted target designation and indication systems (NSCI);
- dual control of the complex, the same for both crew members, grouped on their helicopter controls.

Versus. Ka-52 versus Mi-28N: an unexpected final conclusion

Mi-28N:
- computer system based on the computer "Baget-53";
- navigation equipment as part of the high-precision INS-2000 and the SBKV-2V-2 strapless heading system, satellite navigation system, long-range navigation radio system;
- detection system for radio-electronic and laser irradiation and UV direction finder L-150-28;
- automatic control system (ACS);
- weapon control system;
- helmet-mounted target designation and indication system;
- surveillance and sighting station for detecting and recognizing objects, aiming, capturing and auto-tracking objects via television and thermal imaging channels.
- observation and flight system of a pilot with night vision goggles, designed for round-the-clock survey of the area, search and detection of objects (landmarks and obstacles).
- television channel, thermal imaging channel, laser rangefinder;
- helicopter aerobatic complex;
- on-board communication complex KSS-28N-1, which allows you to exchange data with other helicopters and ground control points.
- thermal television complex "Okhotnik", which converts images received via optical and thermal imaging channels into a single background image of the target under any weather conditions and at any time of the day. The complex allows you to automatically detect, capture and track targets up to processing.

The difference is visible. The Ka-52 has more modern and compact equipment, but the Mi-28 set is more sophisticated and allows you to receive intelligence in a visual form convenient for the operator and transmit it in a timely manner to operators of other helicopters or other enemy weapons.



In addition, the Ka-52's "Crossbow" radar is installed in the bow, that is, basically the helicopter "looks" ahead. On the latest models of the Mi-28N, the Arbalet was installed in the over-bush version, and on the Mi-28NM modification, a new H025 radar is installed at the top.

The over-sleeve placement of the radar allows not only to “look” at 360 degrees, but also “peep out” from behind shelters for a short time, analyze the situation and strike, appearing from behind the shelter just enough to simply launch missiles.
1648942464623.png

Application features



From the numerous shots coming from Ukraine, it is increasingly possible to see that helicopters are working in pairs. It is the combination of Mi-28N + Ka-52 that turns out to be very effective.

After watching a sufficient number of videos, we can conclude about the use of helicopters as follows: the Mi-28N usually flies first, playing the role of a reconnaissance gunner. And behind him at a short distance is the Ka-52.

Quite logical, since the Mi-28N has better armor and detection systems. In addition, the Mi-28N cannon provides a larger angle of fire without changing course and reducing speed. Therefore, the Mi-28N plays the role of a reconnaissance aircraft, providing the crew of the Ka-52 with data on targets. And he starts working on the goal first. And the Ka-52 plays the role of covering, including from the air, and delivers the final blow with its impressive set of weapons.

that helicopters operate in exactly the same way at night, hunting for tanks and other armored vehicles of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The Mi-28N detects targets with its set of equipment, after which, according to its data, the quieter Ka-52 carries out a local Armageddon for armored vehicles.

As a result, we can say that the helicopters are almost equal. Neither has advantages over the other, and if it does in some way, these advantages are offset by other factors. By and large, until the new Ka-60, which should carry out reconnaissance functions, went into production, two helicopters, different and similar, are a very balanced pair.

One (Mi-28N) is more loaded with search and information exchange equipment, the second (Ka-52) has more weapons on board, which can be effectively used from a greater distance.

So while there are talks and comparisons, in fact, a very effective pair of Mi-28N and Ka-52 is successfully working on a wide variety of targets in Ukraine. Complementing and helping each other.

More than once, the thesis that balance is better than any remarkable properties and characteristics has already arisen. In our case, we got an efficient and balanced system. Given that the Mi-28NM and Ka-52M with reinforced armor, more modern radars, and more powerful engines will soon go into production, the pair will be further developed.

And in the future, perhaps, flight exercises for combat coordination of these helicopters will appear in the training programs of the Aerospace Forces
