As Ukrainian tanks advance toward Russian defences, they face an increasing threat from Russian attack helicopters.

The Ka-52 'Alligator', often compared to the Apache, can hit targets 10km away – beyond the range of Ukraine's portable air defence systems.

There is such a threat being felt by the Russian aircraft that the Ukrainian media have aptly named it 'Putin's vulture'.
