I call BS on your "inside source". Mi-28 is a very expensive helicopter, not some khopra candy jo saath main mil jay gee.

I recall reading somewhere that iraq bought like 15 of these for $5 billion. Its not a joke.

Havocs cost between 15 to 20 million dollars each. Russian signed a $4.3 B weapons deal with Iraq that included 15 Havocs, 28 Mi35s and 40 to 50 Pantsir short-to-medium-range surface-to-air missile and anti-aircraft artillery weapon systems. $5b for 15 Havocs is incorrect.

I think you are right he indeed is talking BS
in terms of numbers and unit cost.


its actually 30 units , not 15 as he claimed. the overall contract was up to 5 Billion but that includes 30 units and the entire support (spares, maintenance, training etc) that comes with it

their unit cost is quiet moderate at 15 to 16 million per unit compared to Apache or Eurocopter that are from 20 to 65 Million per unit averaging at about 40 million per unit depending on its specifications.
 
. .
except RPG7, these helicopters are pretty much immune to whatever the TTP and BLA can throw at them
These helo's are comparable to Apache longbow once fitted with MMW radar which will be in mass production by next year... They are pretty much more advance than Mi35 M
