>Heres the first known video of their latest addition (its not replacing the Hind) to their arsenal, the KA-52, in combat. Not the closest support, not like the guys in the Hind, but interesting to watch. These are the ones with no tail rotor and twin contra-rotating main rotors. These things can barrel roll, loop and circle strafe with ease.
Did the KA-52 see any combat in Syria?
That video *is* of KA-52s in combat in Syria. They’re reportedly still being used in combat there.
