It's primary a tank buster , not very well suited for 21st century 'small wars' vs insurgency or brutal 3d world dictators

im guessing for the MEC?

reasons why it should be included rather that stats would be great

edit @Longbow the MEC is a modern well equip army,

I think we could stipulate that the MEC is made up of brutal developing nation dictators.

I know . You missunderstood me , I mean , KA-50's primary target are tanks and maybe the only map where it's deployement will be logical is Kashan Desert . Other maps are more inf vs inf engaments + 1-2 tanks
KA-50 is operated by one pilot , so it is rather hard to engage infantry whereas most of PR maps are infantry oriented .

Now you understand what I mean ?

Not again... by typing 'brutal dictators' I mean Militia & Insurgency leaders ... as I've heared that there will be a MEC vs Insrg map once to completely prove that MEC aren't those terrorists which every westener stereotipicaly see in arabs

ahh i get whay you mean now, AA&A lets stear away form the MEC are terrorists discussion it has no room in this thread

well the KA-50 can carry rocket pods or like the hind gun pods which would work on infantry so in a way it could have two version in the game on for infantry maps and one for vehicular maps like kashan and it wouldn't be that bad to have only one on a battlefield at a time. also the mi-24 hind with the ka-50 would kick ass.
also if you show a picture show the one seater version then the dumb 2 seater.

Russia is the supplier you are the buyer. this is to true.

We already have the Mi-28. Which does bassically the same job as the KA-50, so we dont really need it as it doesnt bring that much new to the table, unlike, say the Hind or Battlehawk, which would be rather more unique and give different advantages to the sides that possessed them.
