Kazakhstan is one of the largest operators of Russian-made helicopters in the region.

At KADEX 2014, Russian Helicopters will showcase military helicopters to representatives of Kazakhstan's Interior Ministry, Emergencies Ministry, and the Armed Forces. The Ka-52 Alligator next generation combat and reconnaissance helicopter was unveiled in summer 2013 at the Le Bourget airshow, and will be one of the promising models on show. Thanks to its coaxial design, the Ka-52 boasts advanced flight capabilities and is equipped with the latest avionics. These outstanding features can be complemented by a range of high-precision weaponry and a high degree of protection for both helicopter and crew.
These features, combined with the ease of maintenance and reliability that are a trademark of Russian-made helicopters together make the Ka-52 Alligator an attractive assault helicopter for many countries around the world. Its outstanding features have assured it a place in the Russian Air Force's fleet - where it is operated in a variety of conditions, including in mountainous regions or adverse weather.Another Russian attack helicopter available on the export market is the Mi-28NE Night Hunter, built to a classic design factoring in the wealth of operational experience chalked up by the Mi- family, and also incorporating the latest aviation technology. The Mi-28NE Night Hunter is renowned for its resilience and powerful weapons systems.
The helicopter can act effectively against tanks, self-propelled artillery, armoured infantry vehicles, APCs, and military air defence units. Its on-board systems can combat low-speed and low-altitude enemy aircraft. In 2013 the Night Hunter configured for the Russian Airforce was brought into service.
