Although it saddens the 476th vFG Command Staff to make this announcement w
e will no longer be supporting the Ka-50 in the 476th vFG.
After two months of trying to set up the 75th vAR we came to the conclusion that we don't see a future for the Ka-50 and implementing this airframe with the same standards of the fixed wing side of this group. We also thought that there would be more interest in flying the Ka-50 than what we've seen.
This does not mean we will never support a rotary wing aircraft. We hope a more advanced helo is released in the future.
