this helicopter allows ejection for pilot which is very good for reducing loss of lives unlike other helicopters and it is one of the best attack helicopter in world​
 
AH-1W and AH-1Z are not built for carrier role. It does not have folding rotors and wings.
This doesn't means its has some special features, its same as standard KA-52 but with folding wing and rotors which increases complexity and maintenance cost of these helis
