The Mi-28NM and Ka-52 Alligator serve the same role in the Russian inventory; both are in the role of an attack helicopter for the Russian Air Force. The classic single-rotor Apache-like helicopter is the Mi-28; while the parallel twin-rotor is in the Ka-52 — these architectural differences are what distinguish the two aircraft.
