Nice work, that it, Didnt see until now been busy this weekend :thumbup:

MI-8MVT-2 Cant equip president S, I think only the MI-8AMTSH with the "dolphin nose" currently is the only operational variant with the system, however since they're able to model President-S hopefully if they ever update this model hopefully they could make the IR Jammer on our MI-8 functional.

Just a little suggestion, but if you get the UB-32 launchers off the L-39C/ZA they're HQ models. Looks way way better, i dont know how to upload screenshots here, but i do have a picture of them on my livery pack. If you look at the third image you can see them on the helicopter. Its a bit weird these were never added to the module since the high quality models of the rocket launcher is available in the game, it wouldn't ruin the polish of the module as the LQ UB-32 launcher would. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/2831505/

Try "JF-17: Bring Back Betty" in the User files. It gives the JF-17 the US style audible warning sounds

I've also experienced something like this. When I tried to use the JSOW in PP mode when taking off from the carrier I inserted the strike point to be on Bandar Abbas airport, I imputed the correct coordinates for that location (and checked they were correct multiple times) but then when I attempted to use the weapon, the HUD was telling me to steer away from the airport 250nm in the wrong direction. Tried it again but set the aircraft on a runway instead and it worked. I think it maybe a bug with the JSOW and CV alignment?

+1 for this. ANd the An-30

Its possible for a 3rd Party Developer not based in Russia to recreate Modern Russian aircraft as Russian law will not apply to them

Will the JF-17 be able to use the AIM-9, or only Chinese AAM's?

I highly doubt it, and even if it could fire the missile it still would be unlikely be able to go further off boresight then the current R-73 considering it doesn't use the modern JHMCS style BINS-SP2 helmet used by the SU-57 and SU-35S

Wait until the Hot Trigger light on the master arm panel is illuminated and then hold down the trigger, missile will leave the rail after about a 1-2 second delay

That would be pretty interesting, or even something like the P-3 Orion or TU-142 would be quite fun I would of though on the Persian Gulf and Caucasus map. Seeking out ships and submarines to sink them with torpedoes and mines

Kind of a trivial question, but are the Overwing Vapors planned to be added to the J-11A, or is that something ED has to do to the SU-27P first?

It would have it uses despite its downsides. Against a jet that gets a little too close trying to take you out you might be able to snag against a kill against him. Or if you know where a group of enemy helo's may be, you could always mask behind terrain, wait for them to pass and come up behind and hit them with your missiles. Theres not too many images of the R-60 on a MI-24P, did find this one though.

You're referring to KA-50Sh "18 Yellow". That wasn't a test bed, that was a proposed upgrade that shared the systems of the KA-52, it had three MFD's with GLONASS navigation like the KA-52. Think SU-30 and SU-27. I believe it was offered to India but failed to meet Indias requirements.Though I would agree, I'd pay full price for that variant aswell. Though I doubt it would ever be done. KA-50 production has ended and I would assume the prototypes were scrapped (could be wrong)

I've done the UAE livery for the AH-64D. Its practically identical to the US livery, just with UAE ARMY written on the tail Download link with the C-130 UAE air force https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3303190/

Anyone have the layered template for these two helo's? I would like to make UAE liveries for both. Thanks

I think it really boils down to a simple question, where are you going to fly your long-range strategic bomber with the current map size? The only bombers that really make sense with the current map size are attack aircraft like the F-111 or SU-24/34. If we're stickily looking at big birds, Maritime patrol aircraft like the P-3 or IL-38 would also work with the current map size. Maybe in the future if we ever get to the point where maps could be 1000's of km across a strategic bomber would make a viable module.

Yeah, it not a particularly good missile, probably even worse on a low altitude helicopter. Although I cant see it being all that bad in Helicopter vs Helicopter combat, like the Mistral on the Gazelle. Relatively low speed and and it wouldn't have to make massive trajectory corrections if the enemy helo was to try and evade fire

AFAIK, at least with the KH-58U most radar operated SAM systems can engage it, its more a case that the older systems will be less accurate so less likely to shoot a HARM out of the sky

Do you guys reckon they will give the MI-24P the capability to take R-60/M missiles? It seems as if it could equip them, though I guess it wasn't a common practise since theres not all that many images out there showing off the A2A capacity of the helo. Might make a good tradeoff, Two R-60M missiles at the expense of 4 Shturm or rocket pods.

Heres the clearest image I could find of the SVP-24 on a SU-33, would be nice to have the upgrade but AFAIK only around 1/2 of the SU-33's received it

Agree, the 18F would be a much better option, it would set it apart from the single seat F-18C, and it would give people a naval alternative to the Future F-15E module in the ground attack role. Makes a nice middle ground between the two modules

Both the R-77 and KH-35 was only tested on the SU-25TM. Not on the SU-25T and are included on that variant for the AI afaik. I've never come across an image of a Su-25 carrying a K-13,This may be because the K-13 was phased out after the mid 1970's for new air frames with only legacy aircraft like the MIG-21 actively carrying them. That being said, It may have integration?

Thats great to hear that Sukhoi is willing to work with 3rd Party developers, good luck, it will be interesting to see the SU-57 project alive again. Hopefully you'll pave the way for more Russian modules

I'm going to hazard a guess and say its not going to work until eagle dynamics updates their store for the Tomcat
