Sometimes the world reminds me that I am old.

I was wikiwandering today when I cam across the following:

During the late-1990s, Kamov and Israeli Air Industries developed a tandem-seat cockpit version, the Kamov Ka-50-2 Erdogan (Turkish for "Born Warrior"), to compete in Turkey's attack helicopter competition.

So let me get this straight.

A Russian company designs a variant of a Soviet Airforce "Tankbuster" helicopter in conjunction with an Israeli aerospace company for a competition to provide Turkey with armaments.

In 1988, that would have been unimaginable...

Sigh!
