You mean the Almaz's N-025 mast mounted radar. Unfortunately Mil is way behind with their attack helo compared to were Kamov is with Ka-52 and their foreing competitor (Apache)is. You'll have to wait until 2016 along with other upgrades.
In any case if you look at Mil 28 and the Manugsta on the top ,man this thing is massive while Mangusta is an ultralight. Mi-28 probably has more armor on one cockipt than Mangusta has in total.
Good, but I'm still awaiting for an above-airscrew radar (have no idea about correct term to this device in English)

ReplyDeleteThe earlier Mi-28's had about 280 kilo of armour.. The Mi-28N/NE supposedly has tad more then that.
DeleteNow compared to the Apache which has like 150~180 kg in total.
Or see this pic where the bank like doors say it all.
