A decade-long effort to upgrade Russia’s Mi-28N attack helicopter recently paid off with a Russian government order for 98 Mi-28NMs that calls for deliveries through 2027. The order was signed as part of a $16 billion package of 46 contracts that included the purchase of 76 Su-57 fighters to be delivered by the end of 2027. MKB Vympel, a Russian research and defense firm, also received an order for new beyond-visual range Izdeliye 180 (meaning Item 180) (R-77M) guided air-to-air missiles.
