In 1973 the Kamov Design Bureau was given the task to develop thetransport-combathelicopter based dual (deck and on land) for the needs of the Soviet marines.The basis for the design of the ship was chosenhelicopterKa-27(at the time stilldenotes the Ka-252), just in 1973, first took to the air.
In July 1976the Ka-252Tmade its first flight, mass production of cars began in 1984 Kumertausskom Aircraft Manufacturing Company and adopted naval aviation helicopter brought under thedesignation of the Ka-29in August 1987.The helicopter was manufactured before 1991, only produced about 60 cars.
The first of these helicopters were included in the heavy air groups BDK Project 1174 "Rhinoceros" ("Ivan Rogov", "Mitrofan Moskalenko," "Alexander Nikolayev") - four on each machine.

Maximum takeoff weight of 11.5 tons helicopter.The power plant - two turboshaft engineTV3-117Vcapacity of 2200 hpThe maximum speed of 280 km / h, cruising 235 km / h.The range of 460 km (760 km Ferry).Static ceiling of 3,700 meters.The crew of two people (pilot and navigator-operator).
The Ka-29was designed in two applications: transport (for the transport of troops) and combat (as ahelicopter attack).
The transport version he was carrying 16 paratroopers or 10 wounded (including up to four on a stretcher).Also, a helicopter can carry up to 2000 kg of cargo in the cargo or up to 4000 kg of cargo on external sling.It is also equipped with a rescue helicopter could winch lifting capacity 300 kg.In this embodiment, a helicopter armed with chetyrehstvolnym 762-mmmachine gun GSHG (9A622) with 1,800 ammunition rounds.

In the combatversion of the Ka-29was likened to his fellow overlandMi-24V.gunneryarmament could be supplemented bya 23-mm2A42 cannon with ammunition, 250 rounds of ammunition.Strike weapons was installed on four underwing hardpoints and could include two launchers ATGM"Sturm-V"(4 missiles 9M114 "Cocoon" or 9M120 "Attack"), rocketsC-5orC-8(up to four units), or Two incendiary napalm tankST-500.Under the cab mountedoptronicfire control system
On the basis of the Ka-29was developed and launched in a series of helicopter radarwatchKa-31(Ka-29RLD), put into service in 1995.
After the order for the type of amphibious assault ship"Mistral"in 2012 launched the projectof modernization of the Ka-29,with the expectation of producing updated helicopters for these ships.However, the refusal of France to transmit "Mistral" is suspended in the air this project.
