About this helicopter

• Work on the Ka-50[wiki.warthunder.com] began back in 1976, with it entering service only in 1995. In 1993, the Ka-50 featured in the Russian “Black Shark” movie, hence its nickname. This is one of the most modern helicopters in War Thunder. It’s fast, maneuverable, armed with the 9K121 “Vikhr” ATGM which is also effective against air targets thanks to the radio fuze, as well as the “Igla-V” MAPADS.
