The hole art in this is to reduce recoil of 30mm canon and the lift capabilities of Ka-50, not canon materials!!!

As I understand The Ka-50 is not using gun.Only gun/pods

 

Hummm...strange....got a link?

The usage of a new material because of better heat resistance would mean that the original material did not fullfill the needs and therefor the design was not matched or false to begin with.

On a sidenote: Achivements in technology or materials are generaly made when a given design is infeasible or impossible without the breaking of new ground. That's why technology leaps in times of warfare - read situations of urgent need.

 

Again: The "fixed" gun is a cognitive design descision ( the thoughts behind it explained often enough by now ) and not a matter of technology developement.

 

Got the link, please.

Any HEAT warhead (including EFP) is called a chemical warhead in terms of armored combat. Its power is derived from chemical reaction shaping the projectile, that's why - as opposed to kinetic penetrators (ie. what you'd call AP).

 

You can disagree with me all you want, but it's the same as shooting steel plate with BBs.

 

hit a tanks tracks its dead anway. instead of trying to hit the armour blow the drive trains out ..with enough hits the armour will weaken when its static cant move. side and rear impacts. tanks are metal coffins.

The gun is state of the art? Why that might be. The Ka-50 isn't ;)

 

Heh, u should prepare for big pain when you'll be constantly downed in A-10 by me, GG ;)

Reminder: Fighter pilots make movies. Bomber pilots make... HISTORY! :D | Also to be remembered: FRENCH TANKS HAVE ONE GEAR FORWARD AND FIVE BACKWARD :D

This thread is running circles around itself for some time now, still there is an entertaining touch to it :D

You should really get out for some fresh air; I thought you already knew that the Ka-50 cannot attack fixed wings with a significant margin of success (a margin whose limit aproaches zero as the aircraft altitude aproaches 300m + above the heli ;) )

... until it or its friends swing the turret around and put an HE round in your face. Tanks are around because they are incredibly tough and difficult to destroy. Don't knock'em, or they'll knock you .... ;)

 

PS: Your link shows a tank whose (IIRC) APU was hit, and its fuel spilled into the engine. Nothing to do with tracks. This problem has been getting attention.

If you can't tell why a turret is a bad idea for a single seat gunship that has been proven to do it's job perfectly without I'm afraid noone will be able to help you.

Especialy not when you ask for it to engage sudden attacks by SAMs.

 

Ahhhhh......... So were back on topic....SO in a high-tec-state of the art battle field the KA-50 falls into which part of the poll STATS..? Evevn with upgrades and such?

Well,

 

Being that it still seems up in the air about the Gun on the KA-50, have we forgot anything?

 

I mean A-10 flyers Know how nice it feels too kill any form of AAA on a nice dive run.

 

How would the KA-50 be compared 2 the A-10 in SEAD?

Posted

Neither the Ka-50 nor the A-10 do SEAD. They are DEAD machines if anything.
