Russian “hell machine” slows the Ukrainian counter-offensive

The Ukrainian counter-offensive is advancing with exceptions in certain front areas. The Russians have built strong defense lines and Ka-52 attack helicopters are being used intensively to combat Ukrainian targets.

– An advantage of the Ka-52 is that it is equipped with anti-tank robots that have a very long range, explains Lieutenant Colonel Johan Huovinen at the Norwegian Defense Academy.

In the video you can hear why the Ka-52 got its nickname and what the Ukrainians can do to stop it.
