If I'm not mistaken the blackshark's Vikr is a beam rider. Infact it acts more like a tow, then say a helfire. Where the hellfire searchs for sparkling laser light reflected from a target to find it's mark. The Vikr, Rides the bean to the target. Like a laser tow wire so to say. Would explain why the vihkr spirals around the beam . So the brevity wouldn't be Rifle!. It would be Wire. So buddy lasing would be difficult, because the vihkr's sensors are looking back at the Ka-50, and not looking forward for a coded laser sparkle.

orbit point, and run in/run away from orbit point command would be nice as well. For us CPG'S

I was just going to bring this up as well.

What is really harsh is. I paid an equivalent of 9 cents towards the Apachi, when I pre-ordered and screwed myself outta the 8000 bonus. LOL. A bit unfair but I guess that's life.

I just got this from https://www.army-technology.com/projects/ka50-black-shark/ " A combination of various armaments to a maximum weapon load of 2t can be selected according to the mission, including anti-tank missiles, unguided aerial rockets of different calibres, air-to-air missiles, guns, bombs and other weapons. The helicopter has small mid-mounted wings, fitted with four underwing suspension units and wingtip countermeasures pods. Up to 12 Vikhr supersonic anti-tank missiles can be mounted on the helicopter’s two underwing external stores. The laserbeam-riding Vikhr missile is stated as having a target hit probability close to one, against a tank at a range of up to 8km, and the capability of penetrating all types of armour, including active armour up to 900mm thick. "The Ka-50 Black Shark is armed with a 2A42 quick-firing 30mm gun." The Ka-50 is armed with a 2A42 quick-firing 30mm gun, which has an unrestricted azimuth and elevation range mounting for use against airborne or ground targets. The gun is equipped with 460 rounds of ammunition: two types being carried, high-fragmentation and explosive incendiary rounds and armour-piercing rounds. The pilot selects the type of ammunition in flight. The weight of the ammunition is 0.39kg each round, the muzzle velocity is 980m/s and the range is up to 4km. The gun provides an angular firing accuracy of two to 4mrad." So thats multiple sources stating that the ka-50 Did have some form of A2A. I just don't think it was as common is all. (But that doesn't mean it didn't happen, or Couldn't happen).These sites were made way before this little debate on weather, or not the Ka-50 did or did not have A2A Capability. But you are right the KA-50 was pretty much the TEST bed of the Alligator. If the USSR didn't fall under. The KA-50 woulda been the mainstay attack helicopter of Russia most likley. But they ran outta money to continue its production.

Lol yeah my appoligies on the time. But people calling AA on the KA-50 Fantasy. When the manufacturer does say it was planned. Then that documentary. Could of swore I did see an igla equiped KA-50 in one of these vids somewhere.. I am still looking but I did find this.

Here it shows Air to Air in this russian documentry on the KA-50 starting at 8:04 Can never get the Youtube tabs to work on this forum

All I know is. It sure is funny how ED are quick to remove weapons that don't belong on this particular Viper. But they sure don't update it with the ones that do belong.

For sure the Viper. Responsive, Fast, Zippy, and unrestricted climbs to 20k feet. 9g turns. Its like the Ninja bike of the Jet world. I love it, and literally Stopped flying all my other modules since its been out. Even though its early access, I can't put it down.

When will this get fixed it has been a problem for years in dcs seems like a simple fix, of course from my standpoint its As easy as changing a few lines of code in the tanker code. Im sure there is far more to it. That would be to change the tankers from follow direct track, to direct heading when the tanker is asked to refuel. Then go back to direct track when finished. In this example before the recording started. this tanker made 4 banks from left to right, then right to left. Then we started recording, You can see the tanker change bank angles multiple times just to stay on its direct track. This isn't the first time this is happened. I seen tankers damn near do fighter like breaks to stay on that track, (even while refueling is happening). So please, Please fix this finally.

As the title states, in the last 3 tests in a row, I reliably shot down a missile with the aim9x system. I wouldn't bet my life on it in rl. But in DCS, its fun, if you know where the missile is coming from :D. In this video I intentionally shoot down a missile fired at me to get close to a Mig-29C, Dodge the second missile, and then dodge 2 heaters, when he went in for guns I got close to the deck, and he pulled away. Thats where he spelled out his own doom, And the Viper bit hard! :D

No problem at all. I'm just glad it helped :D.

Here I did a video tutorial for TGP LSS Hope you guys enjoy.

Not the best but not the worst either :)
