Flight Center in Torzhok. The Ka-52 (71 photos)
Journey to the helicopter center in Torzhok.
At this point in the flight center is 4 Ka-52 "Alligator" tail number 92-95.
To begin to show you a helicopter from different sides
The helicopter is armed with a gun 2A42-1 that pilots have described as a very accurate and reliable weapon.
Snaryazhanie tape for travel to the fire at the landfill. First, of course, this is done by machines (and already in the tape are transported to the helicopter in the parking lot) and then gunsmith again manually adjusts shells that during firing was not warps and wedges gun. Likewise come gunner BMP-2
Compartment for ammunition to the gun
Seen as lentoprovody fit to the gun
Sliver
After laying tape a special cable from the gun and pulled the handle is pumped to the first shell shot
Uniform Block B-8V20A to start unguided rockets S-8
This is how the gear unit. Use rockets C-8KOM
Armament uploaded
Ground power unit APA-5
Filling helicopter
We now turn to the cockpit
I confess, good quality shots did not work, because terribly hurt the sun poured dashboard bright light, plus had a very hurry, because the helicopter is about to fly was on fire.
Ejection seat K-37-800 crew commander. Red half-loop front seats - arm bailout
Compass backup
Stop-valves engine
Setting night vision device
Analog Devices: upper left - fuel gauge, bottom left - the engine speed (as a percentage), left
upper right - the engine speed (in percent), lower right right - the radio altimeter (works up to 300 meters)
Photo digital indicators made during refueling helicopter
Analog Devices from left to right:
1. speed (tens of kilometers per hour)
2. The attitude indicator (rotate - adjusts, nazhmёsh - Reset)
3. Acceleration (meters per second)
4. barometric altimeter - tens of meters
5. Compass

Plaque pilots on the Ka-52 for the last quarter was 50 hours. In general, the coating of the season - until June 1, flying more than in the subsequent time
66.
Young pilots fly mainly in the summer, because winter in central Russia is quite complicated meteorological situation. In addition, flights can be delayed for the following reasons:
- New helicopter, the operation of the troops from time to time emerge problems with equipment not identified during the test, so we have a long time to wait to find out what the cause of the fault.
- Banal, that summer because of high fire risk can cancel shooting on the range
The problem with flights for pilots in Torzhok lies in the fact that all helicopters are used as training machines for those pilots who come to the center to be retrained for new equipment. Respectively, have to stand in line for flights
Ka-52 is worth gyrostabilized opto-electronic system GOES-451. Detection range during the day - 10 km, at night - 5-6 km (identification at night - 3-4 km)
