Zvezda 7232 Ka-58 'Black Ghost'

The Kamov Ka-58 is a completely imaginary attack helicopter that would be added to the arsenal of the armed forces of the USSR or the Russian Federation. The said structure was to be developed at the turn of the 1980s and 1990s, or only in the last decade of this century. The Kamow Ka-58 was to have reduced radar detectability and use many elements of stealth technology. In a way, it brought the presented helicopter closer to the prototype American machine called RAH-66 Comanche. The available materials indicate that the Kamow Ka-58 would have the rotors in a coaxial arrangement, and therefore exactly the same as other structures of the Kamov plant. It would almost certainly also have a three-support foldable in-flight landing gear. There are many indications that probably also the outboard armament brackets would be hidden in the helicopter fuselage. The crew would probably be two people: a pilot and a shooter. More detailed information about the drive unit or the performance of the Kamow Ka-58 is, of course, impossible to obtain.
