@Mali Sharpe First The Ka-52 has ejections seats not ejectors seats ,secondly at the altitude helicopters operate, the odds of them having time to eject is virtually nil The Ka- has had a few accidents and ejections seats didnt save the crew Secondly the Ka-52 weapon load is exactly why no one is buying it. To arm fully the Apache, you need 30mm rounds, 70mm rockets, 1 ATGM and 1 AIM While the Ka-52 needs requires over 10 types of weapons so if you are on budget like most countries are , the Apache appeals to you in that area The US 70mm hydra has 6 different precision upgrade kits whereas the Ka-52 has zero The AGM-114 has upgraded successively since 1982 as well has decades of combat experience under its belt The Ka-52 9K121 Vikhr has never been used in combat and only been upgraded only just recently so basically the Ka-52 has very little combat experience and mosty unproven weapons. Russia has sent it to Syria but again thats not going rise interest The Apache raised interest during the Gulf war by flying nap of the earth and knocking out sams as well killing armor whole sale Then there is technology. the Apache greatest feature is the Arrrowhead also known as the Target Acquisition and Designation Sights, Pilot Night Vision System (TADS/PNVS) The pilot and gunner each have their own sights which means while the gunner is focused on the target, the pilot can look elsewhere. The KA-52 only has one sight so yeah just saying

@Maliothemaster Again its called ejection seats not ejector moron. Secondly, the system is only validated when it actually works and so far it hasnt worked versatile means moron that it can cover a wide range of mission types ding dong and again that has not being proven. The Ka-52 has extremely limited combat experience whereas the Apache has proven its versatility across decades hence why India brought Apaches instead of the Ka-52 The Ka-52 has been offered since the latest 2000s and to date only has one actual buyer The Mi-24 series has no problem finding sales as its proven like the Apache wheresa. The Ka-52 has one order outside of Russia and 30 for Egypt No one is interested in a unproven weapon system like the Ka-52 Upgrade kits allow the 70mm hydra to be used with the same precision as guided ATGM at fraction of the cost moron. kits increases the weapon capacity as high as four times depend on which kit is used. It allows the 70mm be used for most targets and hellfire saved for high value targets Again appealing to countries on budget as they can precision guided weapons much cheaper. As for the Ka-52 having more advanced sensors wrong moron The Apache's longbow system can simultaneously attack 16 targets while the Ka-52 can only attack 4 targets simultaneously. All the Apache has to do is rise the longbow radome to fire whereas the Ka-52 has to completely unmask to fire The longbow hellfire can be fired against targets behind obstacles whereas the Ka-52 Vikhr is line of sight only. The Arrowhead ding dong is the latest upgrade to the tads/pnvs system and it was rolled in 2005 while the Ka-52 was still ??? The Ka-52 only has one sighting system in the nose and nothin else
