Definitely one of the Russian platforms that had proven effective in it's intended role. The KA-52 fleet has taken a lot of casualties fortunately.
KA-52 cost 20million, but offers fairly little which could not be had for less using drones or artillery and fighter planes are not much more expensive, but are more capable.
