Golden! Thanks!

They might clip through or might not work. In either case, I would add them to the outter stations. Now, I'm not sure if I'll make a mod, since I would need some help from others..

If it's coming then it's OK. :) The MiG sure does have a lot to fix, improve and etc. But since it's in beta, I'm not even mad.

True, even though the Ka-50 was advertised as being able to carry them on the very tips of it's wings.

Well, it's a beta after all. :joystick:

Yes, I'm also wondering if this was intentional.. Probably? :) And yeah, the bigger the angle, the better.

Mine says the same. In addition to „“ВЦ” (Airborne target) button. When targeting an aircraft with Vikhr and the aspect is changing or is other than high-aspect, press this button to set the missile to use a general proximity fuse. With a proximity fuze, the warhead will detonate when it is close to the target and does not require a direct hit. [V]“. (Page 176) So it has a function: it selects Vikhrs + Airborne Target mode.

Airborne Target.

I quoted the last two sentences from the Flight Manual, but found out by testing it myself. With Vikhrs on my aircraft I pressed the switch and it selected Vikhrs + automatically turned on the A/A mode. There are certain things that the manual doesn't cover, I guess...

I think you will learn everything with experience, but my tip would be to NEVER ever use the stupid hover mode and etc., or you will get killed a lot. You can fly with Route mode outside the combat zone, but when you're in it, have the 3 default channels on + the FD/AP and just fly manually. (I don't use the Rudder Trim option, but have the Center Trim option checked, I think it works best).

I've read the part of the Flight Manual that covers the use of A-G rockets and did the same with the real Pilot's Flight Operating Instruction. :book: And then I started testing the theory, but I couldn't hit the target with the pipper over it, I always had to aim 5-10 m. in front of the target to hit. :joystick: Am I doing something wrong or is this the ASP that's inaccurate? Need help! :(

Tried them and they work as A-A. Though, if I were to make a mod, I would need to copy the performance data of the Igla-1E missle to this one and somehow change the model of the missle to the Igla-1E instead of the 9M114. And some additional stuff that would allow the Ka-50 to fire type 1 seekers (IR) and voila.

Yes, I do know that. I've actually played around with AGM-114Ks and AGM-65Es on the 104th Phoenix. Until people noticed.. :music_whistling: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=144797

Just found out that the selector is used to select Vikhrs and automatically engage the A/A mode. This mode sets the missile to use a general proximity fuse. With a proximity fuze, the warhead will detonate when it is close to the target and does not require a direct hit. And the missles that looked like Igla-1Vs are probbably Vikhrs, but in a strange 2 per pylon config. Because I watched the footage again and they had a Vikhr-like shape.

No prob! Sure thing, mate. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0xXD7XAZa9gT2Z3bXY4WkpRcms/view?usp=sharing

Ka-50. Just because it needs some love.

"Ka-50 took part in the Russian Army's operations against separatists in the Chechen Republic. In December 2000, a pair of production Ka-50s arrived to the area. With the Ka-50s was a Ka-29, to provide reconnaissance and target designation. On 6 January 2001, the Ka-50 used live weapons against a real enemy for the first time. On 9 January, at the entry into a mountain gorge in the area of a settlement named Komsomolskoye, a single Ka-50 accompanied by an Mi-24 used S-8 unguided rockets to destroy a warehouse full of ammunition belonging to Chechen insurgents. On 6 February, in the forest-covered mountain area to the south of the village of Tsentoroj, the strike group composed of two Ka-50s and the sole Ka-29 discovered and, from a range of 3 km, destroyed a fortified camp of insurgents using two "Vikhr" guided missiles. 14 February, saw a similar strike group carrying out a "hunting" mission in the area of Oak-Yurt and Hatun. In difficult conditions, pilots found and destroyed eight targets." It was essentially an experiment, the Ka-50 was used for ground attack and recon. It used the standart weapons that we have in DCS.

OMG. Joining Now!

You should see it now.

Ok, so I'm currently testing some 'new' weapons for the Ka-50. I have a feeling that it would be possible to make a proper mod.

You should still be able to fire the R-77.

:thumbup:

There's a launch override? Thanks! :)

No prob, mate. Apparently that's a Vikhr but only two of the per hardpoint..

We may nerver know.. If you skip to 7:10 on the video that I posted before, you will see soldiers mounting Vikhrs (Two per rack) on the Ka-50, but the problem is that it's a different Ka-50 to this one. It might aswell look something like this: https://fotki.yandex.ru/next/users/elberet545/album/166017/view/402621 http://cs919.vkontakte.ru/u16852913/984668/x_b5256edc.jpg EDIT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24uBhch1HgI#t=470 you can see 2 Vikhrs at 7:50. But again, it's a different Ka-50. They're even talking about day/night capabilities.
