Please could you do them in green too (for Caucasus)?

I really like them. When using the EWR, I see them as Search emitters (on RWR) but even after setting freq and callsign, I cannot see them in the GCI/AWACS radio menu or get calls from them?

It's hard. Easy with an illuminated airbase as above but generally v difficult. Much easier in the KA-50 where you place the Shkval on the area you want to illum then fire at the precise range. The Hind really isn't meant for this but it's the only thing that works even a bit for a single helo. Another option in a team is to use a Su-25 etc to drop flare/candle bombs. That works great and lights a huge area. The AI does this well.

Ah, I see.

I just tried a mission where the designer had set the temp to 41 degrees. The Hind will not start at all. After a lot of testing I found it starts easily at 30 degrees, will start at 33 if you let the APU run and won't start at 38 or higher.

I had the same problem so tested it extensively. The problem is the air temperature. Alpen has it set to 41 degrees and the Hind will reliably start up at 30 and with issues at 33. There's no way to get her to start at 41 at all.

Yes it works fine. Need to make sure the presets are on the same freq as the airbase. Doesn't work like the FC3 modules where everything on same freq.

same

Yes but does it ACTUALLY open or close the door??

Yes Fusion, I see the same at close ranges too and it's ugly.

Loving it and slowly finding solutions. Will be interesting to see how the module develops.

It's also available for UKR and GRG I think.

Works fine in Caucasus btw. Not every map has the high detail paper map yet.

Cargo doors work fine but I cannot bind the pilot door to a controller.

Works fine for me with a HOTAS button

After cold start, you need to hit the Left and Right side buttons in the ASO2 menu and select a "tray" with the I/II/III button. Three buttons. Then you can use them after a cold start in multiplayer from the pilot seat.

It's a LOT easier in the Ka-50 but after two or three tries I could do a night airfield attack quite easily though of course no SA-8 or similar was present!

In the example above, I have 4x Illum rocket pods so plenty of light.

Take the illumination rockets, aim up 15 degrees and fire 4200m from tgt (i.e. fire a set as you run in). The flares last 40 secs or so. Use that time to kill the enemy if you can. The distance from the flaring point to the firing point means that it's better if one helo illuminates while the other attacks.

Pipeline anomaly east of Tiyas, pipeline spikes in air (but no collision). While we are at it, PLEASE get rid of the bloody Normany adverts - every tiny village has 9!!!

Hi Norm, As per your request on FB, just reminding please could be have the Chieftain for Iran, Kuwait, Oman and Jordan? Also, the UK skin as here? We never used them in desert colours. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3316578/ While we are at in, we need the EWR radars in several countries, notably Iran and Syria. Also the Mi-8 in Syria. Thank you!!

Ah OK, cheers. I hadn't seen that.

You can also fire through it
