After the modifications made to the Uran-9 ground combat drone, it is the turn of the Ka-52 and Mi-28 combat helicopters to undergo a modernization programbased on feedback from the Syrian theater.
According to the TASS agency, the two combat helicopters will see their power increased, and the optronic systems modernized, to improve the detection and identification of targets. At the same time, the same Tass agency, in its Russian version, indicates that the Defense Ministry had ordered 12 Uran-6 autonomous demining robots, also tested in Syria.
Since the start of the intervention in Syria, as well as in the Donbass, Russian forces have not hesitated to deploy equipment under development to evaluate its behavior and constraints in an operational environment. In addition, equipment already in service also undergoes numerous modifications/improvements in a visibly effective process of continuous improvement, with short cycles and rapid concrete results.
This method has made it possible to greatly improve the effectiveness of Russian forces, noted by numerous observers in Syria.
