The war reconciled chopper competitors. Mi-28N and Ka-52 together against Ukraine [ANALYSIS]

There has been debate for at least a decade about the reasons, and above all the sensefulness, of the Russian army aviation's possession of 2 very different helicopters of this class. This is, of course, about the Mi-28N and KA-52 strike helicopters, 1 very classic, sometimes called “Russian apache”, the another unique, with 2 concurrent rotors, pilots' seats side-by-side equipped with a catapult and a deck weapon located on the side, moving vertically. As it seems, the Ukrainian war can reconcile the supporters of both machines, due to the fact that as it turned out, they work best in tandem.
