The Ka-52 were used in the most dangerous missions ever flown by helicopters in any war. I do not know why people think there would not be heavy losses.

@kurousagi8155 The only fire and forget ATGM for LONG RANGE in world is the hellfire II (and even then it has some limited Fire and forget capability depending on the density of terrain)

@thegenericguy8309 Russian missiles are laser riding weapons, different fromt he first hellfire that tracked the reflection of the laser with a frontal sensors. The russian missiles track the laser source with a backwards sensor. The advantage of that is that they are less vulnerable to countermeasure, the downside is that the helicopter cannot shake, turn or rotate violently or it will take the missile out of its riding laser.

@jacob-lf4id The wording invulnerable is usually used regarding attack helicopterts. It does nto mean indestructible it means cannot be shot down by small arms (usually up to .50 is considered a small arm for that purpose)
