you can get an excel viewer for free on the internet. this allows you to see the sheet but not edit it or use functions. also, did you check the ingame encyclopedia yet? here's a link to the official viewer https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=10

they just have to let us fly it with the new model they made for it http://www.mudspike.com/qa-with-matt-wagner-producer-eagle-dynamics/

you can also hold middle mouse button to slew the view around, when not in clicking mode. this allows a good view even with bodies on

3x24" typically run the game on the middle screen and the MFCD's on the side displays.

The DCS products available on steam are in a flash sale. you can now get all modules for 75% off with the exception of the MiG-15 and MiG21 wich are 50% off. this flash sale will last another 11 hours and 18 minutes from time of this writing.

engine failure can also be induced by being in a to high angle of attack. there's an angle of attack meter on the right-top-centre panel. do you pull it into the yellow or red a lot?

they don't sell the old standalone black shark or the standalone upgrade anymore. OP,you could try to login on this site with your Multiplayer login. see if it states if u got the chopper. you could also try to enter the serial from steam there.

I am sure they would use the Mig-27 Flogger for that task. it was introduced in the early 70's so viable for the OP's question of 80's. it could fire a variety of precision munitions like Kh-23 (AS-7 Kerry), Kh-25ML (AS-10 Karen) and Kg-25MP (AS-12 Kegler). For SEAD role it could fire AS-9 Kyle anti-radar missiles. it even has a 6x30mm rotary cannon for strafing. here's a nice documentary if you want to know more.

hello people. I do not intend to hijack this thread. But I have recently ran into the same problem as the OP. I have only bought the black-shark this week, on the sale, so perhaps I am simply making a rookie mistake. I do want to mention I have read the manual and used the internet to help me alleviate myself from my problem, to no avail. For the last week I have been busting tanks quite hapily in my new kamov. but since recently, it has proven impossible to get a launch authorised after my first kill. allow me to demonstrate via some screenshots. the situation is: -my kamov at an altitude of 200 metres AGL* - a couple of target trucks 2,5km away* - 16 "vikhr" AT-16 loaded on the kamov, as well as a fully loaded canon * these parameters are within authorisable parameters, an altitude of 50 to 6000 metres and a target distance of 800 to 6000 metres, if I am not mistaken, wich I could, but I am very sure this is within parametres. This was my first launch, wich I had authorised with no problem. this proves I have set my parametres correctly, the designator was set up correctly. the master arm was on, the vikhr was loaded correctly and correctly selected for launch. I can tell you that the switch was set in "AUTO" mode. I did not manually authorise this launch. the missile ended up killing the target as would be expected. I am now aiming at my second target, however I will never never get my launch authorised, and I did not understand why. I did not tamper with any of my settings or switches. Expierence learned me that if I manually authorised a launch, the missile will go ballistic straight from the rail. I have noticed something funny. the rangefinder on the HUD is showing me that target is at an appropiate range. there's a circle-line system where the outer circle-line needs to inbetween the first and second mark for the enemy to be in the correct range. the marker tells me the range is correct, however, it is not alligned with the target at all. I decide to try something funny. what if instead of the laser designator alligning with the target, I shall allign the helicopter with the laser designator instead? Launch authorisation! let's see if the missile goes ballistic or if it will strike the target good hit. Now my question to you guys is, what am I doing wrong here? or is this a bug? I can move the Shkval tv around just fine to lock onto targets. there's no problem with the first kill, because the laser designator HUD icon is not even visible before the helicopter locks onto the first target. the targetting icon is not even visible before the first lock-on, at wich point it appears exactly over the target. I do want to note that the LD is able to pitch. meaning that if I aim at a target further away, the LD is able to follow, or even if I pitch the whole helicopter, the LD will follow the 'vertical' movement. I have tried several functions. the Laser Designator Reset button ( on the middle bottom panel ) does not fix this. the reset button on the left panel ( the panel where the AA, moving ground target buttons are as well ) does not work. powering down the designation equipment and then booting it up again does not work either. Thank you for your time!
