Egypt’s Defence Ministry will get 46 Ka-52 Alligator combat helicopters in 2017-2019.

In September 2016, Egypt and Russia signed a training agreement, which will see Egyptian pilots train for the Ka-52 in Russia.

The Ka-52 is equipped with four hardpoints under its wings, which can take on laser-guided anti-tank missiles, rockets, air-to-air missiles, and laser-guided bombs. Powered by two VK-2500 turboshaft engines, the Ka-52K has a cruising speed of 260 km/h and a maximum speed of 300 km/h.  The Alligator has an operational range of 460 km and ferry range of 1,100 km.
