  • i love russian helicopters....

  • "You misspelled 18 wrong."

    If you want to resort to absurd sarcasm and grammar nitpicking, then you don't misspell something incorrectly. You spell things incorrectly. Regardless, there is absolutely no merit to your comment about 12 helicopters versus 18 helicopters. We've gone over this already, this helicopter has been scrapped by Russia.

    I thought we were discussing the merits of the KA-50 as a gunship, not as a pissing contest between the USA and Russia.

  • @Providence932

    You need to stop dodging the subject, here. This point about the KA-50's manufacturing number is absurd and points only to Russia's lack of faith in the aircraft. The excuse "Special operations helicopter" means nothing when looking at the aircraft's actual merits when compared to western, or even eastern helicopters with similar missions.

    Give up, buddy.

  • IF I HAD A CHOICE BETWEEN THIS AND THE RAH-99 COMANCHE, I'D BE IN THE PILOT SEAT OF THE BLACK SHARK, AMERICA IS SECOND, SUCK IT YANKEES!

  • @kantusr1

    If you tried to take a blackshark against a Comanche, you would be ripped to pieces before you even knew where to return fire.

  • @Providence932 actually no. the common misconception with most areoplanes and helecopters is once they come into production, there nver upgraded from there original state, you have to wait for a new jet or chopper to see more advanced stuff, which is simply not true, dozens of old areoplanes and tanks and helecopters get refitted with modern equipment, example, iraq and egypt still enforce the t72 battle tank in some of there divisions.

  • What music is this?

  • @FlyinBrian777

    Maybe because it was the "Soviet Army in Afganistan". Know world history you twat.

  • death from above! it even looks like death.

    my all time favorite chopper to fly

  • Wonder why the russians are upgrading their forces best they can as a result of less than perfect performance of equipment, training, tactics in Georgia - against a rather weak opponent? Just thinking of the bragging/trolling going on.

  • what is the name of the background music ?

  • P.O.S.

  • Men's favorite toys

  • @RobertsDigital And women,of course.

  • um unfortunatly guys the ka52 can manourve well but when it comes to quick spin doges or loop-the loops its not as good as the aphache. the apache is the first ever heli to have digital battlefeild technology and was made after the ka50. Combat choppers: Longbow Apache Attack Helicopter is the video you want its usename is skyfender.

  • this ones better then a[ache....

  • Anybody who thinks that Russian military equipment is outdated is a complete idiot ! Everyday we watch videos on here and clearly see that the Russians have some bad ass stuff don't be fooled people !!!

  • Apache has veteran crews and has proven its own in Iraq and Afghanistan. It's a reliable, tough, deadly chopper. The Ka-50 is without a doubt a great helo as well, why all the fighting gentlemen?

  • i have to admit it... this ones better than any attack heli we've (U.S.) has ever made...we need to step our heli game up

  • this helicopter is all freedom :)

  • if its such an amazing chopper, why hasnt the US or the EU created their own little version ?

  • @Alex2149 maybe because we're broke as fuck?

  • this "black shark" is a pease of shit !! used only in russia, cause no country wanna buy it!! Russians tried to copy American "Apoche" but they faild. Apache have been upgraded every 5 years, and now it is a perfect hely. A dream of any army . russians have 50-60 years old wepons and they still belive that they have best army, well we all seen Chechenia and Georgia, and how russians fail against so small coutries... ))))))

  • @adamukrop every 5 years upgrading the same frame it's proof the the apache needs another name like crapache this ka 50 it's like the white shark it's perfect 50- 60 years weapons?ja ja ja check what russian army got ignorant

  • @adamukrop you fail at your own home! XD

  • @adamukrop Upgraded 5 years? yet its slower than an MI-35.AK-74 has better survivability than any M-16.5 years or more upgrades wont save you from death XD...Grozny looks beautiful now and Georgia was slapped silly with a mechanized company

  • @adamukrop First of all, you are brainwashed by your US government and that's a fact, every american is! Second, the KA-50 Black Shark is by far a better helicopter then the Apache. And third, it's Chechnya not Chechenia, witch the Russians can wipe out that country in just 2 minutes, and Georgia...I don't even want to talk about Georgia, the Russians did the 2 minutes wipe out 2 years ago, they invaded Georgia in just 1 week and they could have fucked them forever...

  • @vlecka

    Sorry, no one is brainwashed. Even your government thinks that this helicopter is a piece of shit and hasn't made more than a dozen or so of them. This gunship is not superior to the AH-64D Especially the block III.

  • @Providence932 vlecka also failed to mention the losses suffered by the "mighty Russian army" in Afghanistan.

  • @FlyinBrian777 USA failed in 235 years more wars than russia in 2000 years.USA is 10 times more useless than any other country.Do you know how countries are called with good capabilities for battle success but are to dumb and useless to bring it on?Paper Tiger thats what USA is.

  • @Talshet

    Seems that this one's panties are about as bunched up as his knowledge of history and helicopter gunships.

  • @Providence932 You idiot talk only about AH64D and the block 3, the fucking block 3 is fucking old.And this stupid UAV doesnt make it special or superior more survivable or anything else.UAVs can be used by any usual soldier UAVs like the block3 are very cheap each fucking army have UAVs nowdays that doesnt mean its better or superior.It lacks behind KA50 in all catagories,speed,weapons carry,maneuvrability,armor,wea­pons,accuracy,ejection seats,survivability,relaibilit­y and more.

  • @Talshet

    Block III is old = Wrong

    UAV's don't provide additional survivability = asinine and ignorant

    UAV's that block III accesses can be operated by normal soldiers = ignorant and asinine

    KA-50 superior weapons = Wrong

    KA-50 carrying capacity > AH-64 = Wrong

    Maneuverability KA-50 > AH-64 = Wrong

    Your only legitimate points are on the KA-50's ejection seats, and it's maintenance cost. Other than that, it's a flying piece of shit that Russia herself barely wants.

  • @Providence932 You just made a total fool of yourself.You said KA50 is not more maneuvrable than AH64.This is like to say Mohammed Ali is not one of the greatest boxer.You are total ignorant and dumb even more than that.KA50 is the most maneuvrable heavy armored attack helicopter on earth.its the fastest attack helicopter on earth.weaponary has longer range and bigger shaped charges in it,the 2A42 canon fires up to 4,5km ranges m230 only max 3km and 2km effective.it can carry more

  • @Talshet

    The KA-50's Coaxial rotor setup severely inhibits it's maneuverability - Fact.

    The Apache and KA-50's cruising, Maximum, and never exceed speeds are almost identical - Fact

    KA-50 can only carry 12 Vikhr missiles by design, and pilots are encouraged to fire in pairs because the missile only has one guidance servo, this function is included in the chopper - Fact

    AH-64 can carry 16 missiles, and is so accurate that it does not need to be guided until close to a terminal dive Fact

  • @Providence932

    AH-64 M230 max load = 1200 rounds, or 300 rounds depending on mission - Fact

    KA-50 2A42 Cannon max ammo is 280AP/280 HE rounds in separate belts - Fact

    AH-64 M230 effective range is 1,500 meters, max range 4,000 meters - Fact

    KA-50 2A42 Effective range is 2,500 meters, max range 5,500 meters - Fact

    To achieve this effective range, the KA-50 mounts the cannon on the side of the aircraft, severely limiting it's firing arc, requiring the maneuvering of the chopper.

  • @Providence932

    I could harp on this thing all day, but I don't want to. It's a fine helicopter, it serves it's minor role as a special operations support gunship for daytime operations but suffers in the night time, it is dependent on the KA-52 for target acquisition, and cannot guide the missiles of friendly helicopters to maximize firepower while minimizing the number of exposed aircraft. It is NOT as advanced as the Apache, but is good for brawling with uncons.

  • @Providence932 All KA-50s are capable for any night/day and weathers.All KA-50 are KA-50Ns.But keep talking bullshit.KA-50 is the most survivable attack helicopter with best armored than is only put on IFVs can hold 30mm API rounds, while AH64 can hold only 23mm AP rounds.You speak always about advantage but does advantage means more accurate and more survivable than all oppenents?The most important is Armor,speed,maneuvrability,sur­vivability in total,accuracy and weapons power.

  • @Providence932 Im sure you seen videos about AH64 vs infantry videos.The M230 chaingun is so inaccurate on a small number of people that it needs 1200 rounds.2A42 canon is twice as big barrel size that means higher velocity and much more accurate,its called the snipercanon.M230 accuracy on 2km range is about 60% 2A42 has about 72%.The 2A42 is fixed and stabilized by 3 ballistic computers can be fired at any speed with the highest precision.On 4km range accuracy means more.

  • @Providence932 You are the biggest fool.The coaxial rotors increase the mobility and the maneuvrability immense.Its so maneuvrable it has Gforce count instrument like jet fighters.It is capable to fly maneuvres of 4Gforce.And AH64 cant carry more weapons than KA50,AH64 can carry 16 Hellfire Missiles and have no place for other weapons,ka50 can carry 12 vikhr missiles and have 2 pylons left for 80mm UR with 40% bigger power cause it has bigger dexan in it.

  • @Talshet The coaxial design does have advantages, as I've pointed out, but they are also limited by the risk of collision during high G, or "hotshot" maneuvers.

    If you want to list pylon mounted cannons as an option that fits in the tactical design of the AH-64 then you really have no understanding of the aircraft and need to do some additional homework on the intention of it's design.-

  • @Talshet The AH-64's cannon was made for close-range, defensive engagements to suppress infantry and light armored targets or other aircraft. Again, you've fundamentally misunderstood the intention of the M230, and the Apache itself. Finally, if you're trying to take a complicated machine like an Apache, and use it in direct combat with IFVs, then you're misusing the aircraft, and have fundamentally misunderstood it's purpose in network centric warfare.

  • @Talshet

    The KA-50/N, KA-50SH (night Hunter) models are not even in production, Kamov may have produced a pre-production model for testing, but this aircraft isn't even in service. Russia itself would disagree with the venerability and usability of this aircraft in as wide a service window as the AH-64, owning only a dozen or so KA-50s that are in service.

  • @Providence932

    AH-64 can attack with GPS or Laser guided munitions.These munitions can climb over obstacles and attack targets from their top armor.

    A blind AH-64 can have it's missiles guided by another aircraft, or by ground forces, allowing the Ah-64 to remain behind cover, invisible to it's target.

    The AH-64 carries it's own electronic warfare suite and the mast mounted radar allows the aircraft to detect, track, and target hostiles without exposure.

  • @Providence932 The KA-50 has none of these features

    Vikhr missiles cannot be guided after launch

    Vikhr missiles require constant guidance, restricting the "shoot and scoot" capability of the launching aircraft.

    Vikhr missiles cannot be guided by friendly forces and must be guided by the launcher from the moment of launch.

    Vikir Missiles have only one servo, this reduces their accuracy, so they are launched in pairs.

    Vikhr missiles have no top attack/terminal dive capability.

  • @Providence932

    Radar aside, KA-50 has reduced visibility when compared to the AH-64 due to lack of thermals in production models after 10 years.

    KA-50 has the risk of disintegrating it's own coaxial rotor array through high-g maneuvering.

    KA-50 may have more armor, and the capability to lose it's tail with a reduced reduction in flight stability, but that's because it's a simpler aircraft, with a much simpler mission and intention than the superior and more versatile AH-64.

  • @Providence932 Even KA50N was used during special operations in Chechnya,also all KA50 are N version only 3 have U version as trainer.And yes sure only dozen exist of KA50 because its only avaible for special forces that means only for special puroses.

    All special forces have only small number of soldiers and dont need a whole military for sneaky missions.The Coaxial principe exists very long by kamov and even KA29 was very maneuvrable capable for 2G even 1G more than AH64.

  • @Talshet

    The 160th SOAR special operations unit of the U.S Army has more MH-60 DAP aircraft than there are KA-50s by an exceptional number. 12 aircraft is not enough for anyone, even some 1337 special forces unit, so this is a moot point. This experimental joke by Russia was abandoned by the mother country with only a few aircraft built, no fielded KA-50N, ever. You're mistaking your birds here.

    Coaxial rotors diminishes G-tolerance on this bird.

  • @Providence932 Through all maneuvers the KA50 done there wasnt any kind of collision by the rotor blades.This is just a myth nothing else,brought from ridicouls people without knowledge or just to downrate the effectivness of this helicopter,if it would be diffrent pilots wouldnt loop our fly tight turns.Or can you give me an article wich report such an accident, i think not.Myth busted.

  • @Talshet

    No, you're either ignorant or trying to lie. There have been reports of KA-50's crashing due to rotor collisions as reported by Russia. You're in denial.

    flightglobal(dot)com/news/arti­cles/rotor-blade-collision-is-­blamed-for-ka-50-crash-41224/

  • @Providence932 You are the lair and stupid.Not one KA-50 was ever lost not in combat not through crash.Face the fact that coaxial rotor systemes are much superior to usual helicopter.

  • @Talshet

    Too bad only 1 dozen KA-50's were ever made.

    You're in denial, give up.

  • @Providence932 You misspelled 18 wrong.This is special operation helicopter only available for Speznas.Number doesnt matter here or i will start with total numbers.USA 9600 AFV/IFV groundforces (M1 and M2) vs 26764 AFV/IFV (T72B/BM,T90A,T80U/UBM,T64BM2,­T55BM,BMP1M,BMP2M,BMP3,BMD1-4) (APCs not included)Russia has much more stuff.and AF quality is much higher.

  • @Talshet Except for the fact that if you increase the collective to much, it will cut the KA-50 blades off, as in they will destroy each other. Recommended blade angle is 10-13 degree, any higher at higher speeds you risk aircraft failure.

  • @Providence932 Your the most stupid dumbfuck i ever saw here.Your fucking idiot who think is patriotic when he just ignore all facts about better systemes only to pay kind of tribute to his country.You are faggot never served in military only playing soldier in video games and thinking you are experienced and educated about militaries.You are just stupid ignorant and totaly brainwashed 16 year old child who talking shit without any idea of truth.

  • @Talshet

    Ahahahahaha!

    Please, produce more of this Soviet-Era KGB drivel you magnificent bastard! You're just TOO funny!

  • @vlecka

    KA-50 is cool for all 5 of them that were built.

    More common is the Havoc which is beat out by the Cobra.

  • @vlecka While I have immense respect for the KA-50 the simple fact that the gun is mounted on the right, makes the Apache a better aircraft. After flying this Russian aircraft I can say its a beast, but the apache is much much better.

  • хе! это фильм русский, боевик - "Черная акула" А садит он конечно... пендосы здесь усрались)))

  • It's one mean looking son of a bitch!

  • That helicopter would knock a cobra down, mabey piss on it a little, BUT THEN the cobra would whip out a helicopter knife! And then chop off the other helicopters HELICOPTER DICK! And then the cobra would go back to its wife and kids, leaving the russian helicopter in a pool of a mixture of its own blood, urine, and diesel composition...

  • Редкий ролик, только кач-во не очень.

  • @1906199118 а ты что хотел это с ёмки 90-тых прошлого века!

  • muy buen video, estoy buscando un video igual de KA-50 que parece ser ya lo quitaron el titulo era (kA-50 Black shark best single seat Helicopter attack en the worl ) el video empezaba con dos imagenes y luego el video tenia de fondo musica de metal peasdo

  • bad ass helicopter

  • @bltnxkrw no actually it uses that , but they have replaced it with the upgraded mi-28 hind and they will soon after that replace it with

    KA-50s

  • Wow that looks like one mean helicopter

  • Russia shark

  • ok this maybe looks like pig of the sky, but what a manuervability! what a pilot! just amazing thus it oes not have as good radar and stealth as ah64..

  • @death1rock1334 the russian army uses this as its primary attack helicopter...you are very misinformed , no offense , im just saying you are incorrect. this helicopter is the best in the world , with its duel propellers it has increased air stability while also increasing azimuth sweeps to very fast times of about 2 seconds. while also carrying weaponry on it that most militarys cant even afford to obtain in their armed forces. i studied this helicopter for 2 months so..

  • @Evilsnowman2213 how can it be primary attack helicopter if there are so few of them, i thought mi-28 was the primary helicopter

  • wär interessant gewesen unsern armen BO-105 gegen das monstrum da ^^

  • @Hottzenplotz Das ist kein Monstrum, sondern eine wahre Schönheit. Die meisten Kampfhubschrauber sind hässlich, wenn man sie mit der russischen Kamov Ka-50 vergleicht.

  • I love to see western world believing in outdated technology. Compare cost and power then think again. Greetings

  • too bad the Russians only made like 20 of these. the ka-50 looks like it has enormous potential.

  • @Death1rock1334 they built better name is Ka52...

  • @Death1rock1334 not true, they made only 16 and 10 of ka 52.

    spec ops only, not intended 2 b field heli..

  • jos uvek misterija za amerikance

  • музыка в тему как-то даже получилась :)

  • Scary, Meaner looking than a hunter killer from terminator!!!!!!!

  • Why do many russians say the K52 is better?

    The k50 black shark definitely looks more agile and wicked than the k52

  • i think the k-52 is the double seater version of the k-50. if so it would be bettter because the pilot could foucs on flying and the gunner could focus on shooting, wereas a single seating helicopter the pilot has to do everything by himself.

  • Agreed

  • I will disscus to Mr Puttin for buying Ka 50 Blacl Sharck 100 units for Indonesia Army, immediately!! Very excellent for Counter insurgency

  • Am I right in thinking that this helicopter can far outmaenouvre an apache?

  • @tarkinfish yup 100%

  • Depends what you mean by far outmaneuver.

    I'm sure Ka-50 is more agile, but Apache is maneuverable as well. It can do all the loops / flips and what have you.

  • @OlderG0ds

    Can it shoot rockets on the tail rotor side?

  • @SCRTpilot

    Apache? Yes it can shoot rockets on both sides. why wouldn't it?

  • @OlderG0ds

    Because debris from the launch could get in the rotor and possibly damage it.

    It was in the news I think about 2 years ago.

  • @tarkinfish What for?

  • @tarkinfish definitely

  • @tarkinfish this copter can hold on board even a nuclear missiles

  • @plague9000 LOL! You joking?

  • @tarkinfish This helicopter on fighting possibilities surpasses apache in 3 times, and is capable to destroy the helicopter apache about distance of two kilometers. Here 15 years k 50 is the best shock helicopter in the world.

  • @ZEPPAGE11 The AH-64D is armed with the Lockheed Martin/Boeing AGM-114D Longbow Hellfire air-to-surface missile which has a millimetre wave seeker which allows the missile to perform in full fire and forget mode. Range is 8km to 12km Look it up silly face ;D

  • @2142Unknown Yup since then I've learnt that it is a lot more manoeuverable than its American competition because of the coaxial rotor system it uses... Sure, in terms of combat, the Apche might triumph, for its Longbow helps it detect targets at long range and enable fire and forget type combat, but the fact still remains that standard rotor systems incorporating a tail rotor have numerous problems over coaxial plus co-ax has a higher power:weight ratio, so the helicopter is more responsive.

  • @tarkinfish Бесспорно, это то, что Apche проигрывает бой КА50. КА50 был обстрелян в Чечне и не смотря на это вернулся невредимым на базу. Посмотри Видео посвященное сравнению этих вертолетов. Американские военные признают, что Apche отсасывает у КА50!

  • @Pravoverniy Все возможности боевого летательного аппарата можно узнать только в реальном бою с равносильным противником. Апачи уже более 20 лет успешно воюет и совершенствуется. Ка-50/52 и Ми-28 даже в конфликте с Грузией не участвовал. Пока только слова о превосходстве с другими верталетами да красивые картинки в интернете...

  • @ros1770 Чел ты о чём? Просто америкосы лезут куда не следует, я про Ирак и т.д, там и испытвают, и то на мирных жителях ночью. О каком конфликте с грузией ты говоришь? Или ты наслушался промывания мозгов по телику что мол это Россия и Грузия воевали? Печальный ты...

  • @tarkinfish Nope

  • @tarkinfish outmaenouvre yes ....outgun HELL NO !!!

  • @buckshots500 Umm yes it out guns the Apache. 30x113mm used the the AH-64's M230 cannon does NOT compare to the destructive power of the 30x164mm as used in the 2A42. Plus, you can put UPK-23-250 gunpacks on the wings. Each one of these has 250 rounds of 23 x115mm for a GSh-23L firing at about 60 rounds a minute. There are much wider array of selection when it comes to weapons. And man-power? This thing only needs 1 pilot. Apaches need 2 per aircraft. Sorry but you are swallowing US propaganda.

  • @tvercetti1 If the Ka-50 only needs one pilot.. then why is Russia introducing the Ka-52? If you do your homework you'll see that the 52 is a two-seat version of the Black Shark. Google is your friend. I like the Black Shark, but the Apache has many years of refinements from real combat experience.

  • @FlyinBrian777 I know damn well the Ka 52 is a side by side 2 seater designed for training pilots to fly the single seater Ka-50, recon flights, jamming/EW/SIGINT, spotting/lasing/designating targets and other roles as well as attack. It's not being introduced now, it's already been around for awhile. When the Former Soviet Union designed the Ka-50, it needed a two-seat version to train pilots with. Originally, it was intended the Ka-50 would attack and the Ka-52's would designate targets.

  • @tarkinfish First flight 17 June 1982

    Introduction 28 August 1995

  • you are talking shit..

  • @immaallstar ahah....... this is the best attack helicopter in the world and your brain is outdated.

  • @reddwarf50 It seems the truth makes you painful

  • it looks so evil !!!

  • How does it yaw in the hover? is it with torque differential between the two rotor systems whilst maintaining constant lift?

  • this thing is cool its almost like a fighter jet

  • I'm so sick of youtube comment fights stop comparing everything Russian to something American, and no not everything American or Russian is the best in the world.

  • T-129 one of the best helicopter then apache longbow. Tutkish military are testing K-50 atact helicopter more than 2 years. It's not apposite the NATO standarts. We decided didn't buy their licance for upcreating then make better helicopter with italian Agusta Westland. I think K-50's are quite ugly design, too.If you look over cerefully front of helicopter look like mause face. Also, K-50's Armor are look tinplate.

  • Comment removed

  • Flying the helicopter and doing all the navigation and targeting puts a VERY HIGH workload on the pilot. That can be a real problem on a dense battlefield. Just see how the AH-64 or the Mi-28, both front-line close-support helicopters, have a pilot and a gunner.

    The Ka-50 doesn't have fire-and-forget weapons. Its main anti-armor weapon is the Vikhr, wich is active laser-guided. That means that the launcher has to keep a line of sight with the target. If you can see him, he can see you.

  • The Ka-50 is not a front-line helicopter, but a spec-ops support helicopter. That's why it's a single seater, because it's intended to be flown by a spec-ops operative in a low-threat environment. The twin-seater Ka-52 also isn't a front line helo. Its intended role is to serve as a controller for the rest of the flight composed of a commanding Ka-52 plus some Ka-50s.

  • The Black Shark truly is a beauty. You got to admit that.

  • Wow could you guys stfu with the apache vs ka-50. It's a pointless argument and both have their merits. They would never likely see combat against each other as either side has fighter aircraft to shoot down helicopters.

  • i love this chopper, it looks so nice. My favorite.

  • @venestyler how about ka-52???

  • @venestyler how about ka-52???

  • i dare you America , I dubble dare you

  • for those that want to see the ka50 and the ah64 fight they're both air to ground platforms, not a true test of abilities. and those of you that think this is a display of Russian "dominance"... yea, well last i checked the russians have maybe 25 of these. 15 ka50's and 10 ka52's. that is a typical battalion in the us army. the US has close to 700 apaches. and building more every day... you want a test of power? 700 apaches win hands down. russia will never be a dominant world power again.

  • oh yeah? and what weapons killed most if not all american soldiers since the korean war? YEAH ITS RUSSIAN WEAPONS! Dude your mind is like the Nazis, degrading the RUSSIANS. What do they got? You don't want russian flag raise in WASHINGTON DC, DO YOU?

  • MrRachlin. u my friend are delirious. yes, russian weapons are the weapon of choice by enemies of the united states because they are cheap and readily available to the extremists on the black market. y u ask? well because ur glorious russia has fallen apart and all the weapons were scattered all over the world. thats y. i dont think there were very many russians firing those weapons when they killed the american soldiers. so how exactly do u propose that the russians raise a flag in my capital?

  • i dont think there is even the most remote possibillty. but if they do attempt you can be certain there will be APPACHES there to blow the little commies back into the atlantic. and i'll be right there with them. so good luck with ur demented plans of russian world domination. from where im sittin it still looks like my army is and will remain the most powerful in the world. let the ruskies at us. have a wonderful day. SGT ah64bobby. Tallil Iraq ... eat me MrRachlin.

  • go fuck your appaches

  • the US of A are considering russia as a superpower right now...

  • what you say at first is true and fair enough but saying that they will never be a 'dominant world power again' is a bit ridiculous, you could never know how the world will be in 20 or 30 years until that time comes, and just so you know this is coming from someone British not russian

  • Name of this song PLEASE !!!!!

  • that dog is weird as fuck

  • Terminator will choose Ka-50 Black Shark.

  • the ka-50 would choose the terminator

  • it does looks like a shark...

  • i must say that apache is the best looking attack helicopter out there. dont know which is the best performance.

  • Lying is immoral.

  • Ka-50 is faster, more maneuverable, lighter, better armed, much cheaper.

  • It also has a shitty weapons package and target acquisition system. Again, without a gunner, target acquisition while doing all of those fancy maneuvers is incredibly difficult. This chopper also has no pilot safety system in the event of a crash, not high enough to eject? Well, guess what, you're fucked. Also, KA-50 is not better armed, it's got MORE missiles yes, but the quality of those missiles is low. Also, why put bombs on a helicopter?

  • The Apaches top speed is 227 mph, the KA-50 can go 245, but only in a DIVE, that would make it go about 15% faster, meaning it would maybe match the Apaches speed. Im sorry, but the Apache is better armed, it carries up to 4 AGM-114 Hellfire missiles, 38 2.75mm Hydra 70 rockets, and a 30mm M230 chain-gun which is turned wherever the pilot looks, it also has a better rate of fire. The Apache also has a much better rate of climb. If you want to have a debate over which craft is better, contact me!

  • The Apache is anti tank heli Ka 50 is build against other copters...

    rate of climb???no ka is better the only advantage apache has is that there are 2 pilots... one aims other controls.Its is hard to operate all functions alone

  • @Dragonfest7 ухаха у акулы рекорд по ней стоит^^ апач неочем! + нет неодного ударного верталета с такой броней как у ка-50 и из-за соосной винтовой схемы он имеет большую маневреность!

  • @zacharycombatarms: Do you see two cockpits in side-by-side arrangement in this video? This is a very prominent feature in Ka-52.

  • KA 52 has 2 pilots, KA 50 has only one pilot!

  • Awesome Footage. Thank God we are Friends.
