Walter_Sobchak Posted August 17, 2015 Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 How do you make the Rolls Royce Merlin engine even more awesome? Have it built by Continental Motors in Muskegon Michigan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoooSeR Posted August 17, 2015 Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 Mi-35 in recent counter-terrorist operation, and again near Gumri. A big cell was found, together with leader of Imarat Kavkaz. This big group (7 people AFAIK) tried to run away using mountains and forests, but region was sealed off and several possible locations of gang was hit by a mortars and by this Mi-35.

Sturgeon Posted August 17, 2015 Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 Mi-24 is closer to Il-2 Shturmovik in role and in how it is used. Ka-52 is closer to Apache, Mi-28 and similar. How do you figure? The Ka-52 has the fixed (modest trainability) forward gun, large wings, great manueverability and speed, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm... Fair point, I suppose (though in the US conception, a primary task of sturmoviks is tank hunting - see A-10). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Collimatrix Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 I saw that, and there were some knowledgeable people who were critical about its accuracy. Not sure on specifics, alas. PAK-FAs internal bays are enormous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
