KA-32 variants take on crane, firefighting, and South Korean service

KA-32 civil variants use the airframe for crane and firefighting work, while the KA-32A4 gives the South Korean Air Force a military derivative.

Notes

The KA-32 extends the family into civil work beyond its naval ancestry. Different modifications serve as cranes and firefighting aircraft. Those jobs use the powerful coaxial design for utility work, while the KA-32A4 was delivered to the South Korean Air Force as a military helicopter. The variants separate the KA-32 civil branch from the KA-27's ASW role.
