Amazing! Terrifying Kamov Ka-29 helicopter power

Kamov Ka-29 was born in the 1970s, the first flight was made in 1976.

Ka-29 has an empty weight of 5.52 tons, maximum takeoff weight of 12.6 tons. It is 11.3m in length, 5.4m in height, and 15.9m in main rotor diameter.

Behind the cockpit is a passenger cabin, accommodating up to 16 fully equipped soldiers. In the role of medical evacuation, it can carry 4 stretchers, 7 seated casualties and medical attendants. In addition, it can carry an external load with a maximum weight of 4 tons.

The Ka-29 retains the uniqueness of the Kamov family – it has coaxial rotors, removing the need for a tail rotor. The elimination of the tail rotor is a priceless attribute when considering onboard storage for a navy warship. Additionally, the stout fuselage design and tri-fin tail section are clear indicators of a Kamov design.

The Ka-29 is powered by two Klimov TV3-117V turboshaft engines, with a capacity of 2,190 hp each. The helicopter can reach a top speed of 250 km/h, a range of 460km.

The USS Midway, a vessel in the American Navy, served for half a century.

Few of its first crew members could have imagined the ship would still be sailing into cσmbαt forty-six years later, her deck laden with supersonic jet fighters. Key Point: The ship had a record any ship designer would eпⱱу. The world’s largest Ьаttɩeѕһір for a decade was ɩаᴜпсһed on March 20, 1945, at the Newport News shipyard in Virginia. She would be commissioned on September 8 and given the name USS Midway in honor of the pivotal World wαr II carrier cσmbαt, which occurred just a few weeks after Japan’s capitulation. Few of the more than 4,000 men who set oᴜt on Midway’s first patrol could have guessed that same ship—admittedly in significantly altered form—would be saddling up for Ьаttɩe 46 years later, her deck crammed with supersonic jet fighters. The USS Franklin D. Roosevelt (aka “Rosey”), the first American carrier to be named after a past U.S. ргeѕіdeпt, joined Midway a month later. Roosevelt was built in New York. USS Coral Sea, the final vessel of the clas...

The Largest Aircraft Ever Built

Image
While size does matter, it is not necessarily always a measure of aviation power. However, this did not stop gifted engineers, who have, for decades now, been designing vehicles of such magnitude that their very ability to leave the ground was already impressive. Today we are going to take a look at 10 of the largest planes, all with their own unique story. Today we are going to take a look at 10 of the largest planes, all with their own unique story.

The US tests fighter jets equipped with laser weapons

Image
The three largest aerospace companies in the world – Boeing, Lockheed Martin, and Grumman Northrop – were contracted by the United States to build the most advanced laser s ever! The contract is mainly centered around laser s that could be mounted on fighter jets but ground-based and sea-based versions have been developed too. Now, testing has commenced and the results are quite outstanding! However, other countries aren’t to be left behind as they’ve come forward with impressive developments of their own. In fact, Japan, Spain, and Canada have also contracted Lockheed Martin to develop their laser weapon s. And so the race to the most lethal Laser Directed Energy Weapon is underway! So in this video, we’ll be taking a look at how 60 years of research is finally being pieced together to develop the weapon s of the future.
