Inktober day 4! Prompt: Spell Unfortunately, I can’t actually do magic, so I figured helicopters were the next best thing.  The Kamov Ka-50 “Chornaya Akula”, or “Black Shark”, is a Russian heavy-scout helicopter with a contra-rotating co-axial rotor design. This allows for higher speeds and the capability for more complex maneuvers, compared to the traditional tail rotor setup. Adopted by the Russian army in 1995, the Ka-50 is now used as the primary special-forces support helicopter by the Russian Federation. Armed with a 30mm 2A42 cannon and 4 hardpoints for missiles, rockets, and bombs, the Shark is a dangerous predator.
