Yep, I have generated a fanbase. :)

I’ll probably start sourcing more of my data for these posts, so people can independently verify themselves.

Russia had 133 of these at the start of the war and there are 41 visual confirmations of Ka-52s destroyed. Considering visual confirmations are lower than actual destruction and a notable percent of airframes won’t be ready to fly at any one point, Russia really doesn’t have many of these.
