Cyrillic H is a N.. it is just a Mi-28 (N)..

With better night flying and targeting gear.

thats just cool,

but yet another took for killing

To all those who are knowledgable in this area, how do you think it compares to a Commanche or Apache 2?

A more burning question for me is when is the "Havoc vs Commanche" computer game comming out?

We will have to wait until the next war game to finish, to find out now won't we. I am betting on pilots, because the better one lives.

What's so funny, Dmsoldier. If your even Dmsoldier...

HALT

Identify yourself.

*Speaks over comm.*
ATS intrusion, sector contaminated!
I repeat CONTAMINATION


Hold right there now, Dmsoldier.
Have you drank the water within one AU of this location?

"Apache2"?

WTF!?!

You must be talking about Longbow Apache..



But,

I would say that the Mi-28N is better than AH-64A, but not as good as AH-64D (Longbow)..

(when talking about sensors and weapons..)

And for the RAH-66.. Comanche is a scout, Mi-28N is a guship..

They are in totally different types of military helicopters.. and they shouldnt be compared.. same goes for OH-58 vs Mi-24..

If you get my point?

again, it all boils down tothe pilot. A TOP GUN helicopter pilot could take out all the ships named above. And do it in a Huey armed with only rockets. Or a gunner rideing shot gun.

Pfffffft....... a sidewinder can take that crap out of the sky. NO biggy

ADVISOR,



Please explain: 'TOP GUN helicopter pilot'?!?



But.. you are right.. it all comes down to the pilot..

So, lets hope that US isnt turning against Israel anytime soon..

As during ACM USAF/USN vs. IDF/AF US got good bottom kicking..

(USN lost 200+ to 11, USAAF Lost also But 'got' more and 'lost' less.)

it seems to me that you need to do some research about its "sensors" and weapons vikhr-m Ataka etc..


Guidance for missiles is provided by the Albalet millimetric-wave radar.


The main sensors of the integrated electronic combat system are the microwave radar antenna, mounted above the rotor head, and a forward-looking infrared (FLIR) system. The system displays the helicopter location on a moving map indicator, and flight, systems and target information on liquid crystal displays. The crew are equipped with night-vision goggles.


The pilot uses a helmet-mounted target designator, which allocates the target to the navigator's surveillance and fire control system. The navigator/weapons officer is then able to deploy guided weapons or guns against the target. The targeting system follows the direction of the pilot's eyes.

The integrated surveillance and fire control system has two optical channels providing wide and narrow fields of view, a narrow-field-of-view optical television channel, and laser rangefinder. The system can move within 110 degrees in azimuth and from +13 to -40 degrees in elevation.

I have one simple question. Has the Mi-28N's night vision goggles (NVG) given it some effectiveness against Ukrainian tanks during the ongoing war in the Ukraine?
