Thirteen Russian Mi-28NE “Night Hunter” helicopters have arrived in Iraq, the Alsumaria television channel said on Saturday, January 4.

It said the helicopters would be used in the counter-terrorism operation in the Anbar Province in the west of the country.

This is the second such shipment to Iraq in recent months. The first one consisted of 15 Mi helicopters, the channel said.

In the autumn of 2013, the first group of Iraqi pilots and technicians completed their training in Russia.

Iraq will receive a total of 40 Mi-28NE and Mi-35 helicopters to be used for guarding the border and fighting terrorists. The 4.2 billion US dollar contract for their supply was signed during the Iraqi president’s visit to Moscow in 2012.

Yes i am quoting you.No offense intended though

Here is a link about T-50`S new on-board electric power generation system

UAPO created a new system, which is 2 times more powerful than any existing Russian counterparts. The system converts the DC power supply three-phase voltage variable frequency generator to a DC voltage 27 V nominal capacity of more than 8 kW. It provides stability for the electronic systems and aircraft safety. The new system is different and weight – it’s 1.5 times lighter.
Can someone shed any light on this? Google translate IS challenging at times to say the least

JSR-when you make claims on specific performance parameters you should provide a source otherwise we could all make all sorts of claims with nothing but hot air to back us up and things like IRST,BARS and SU-35 have nothing to do with the claim you have made.

I only understood the last 3 paraghraphs-as for the rest …i will leave it at that

Oh i see he is talking about the LMFS.Completely forgot about that

Amen to that
