The Ka62 is developed from the Ka60 and work on the prototype began in 1990 but, as Russian helicopter developments are not well represented on PPRuNe maybe that's why you didn't get to hear about it!

The landing gear arrangement is not a million miles away from the Balckhawk set-up in terms of basic layout.

Turbomeca powerplants so we'll see how that goes. Perhaps more interesting is that the very first deliveries, as your article states, are due for offshore work.

Good luck to them!
