Both Leo and Abrams use the M256 Canon developed bei Rheinmetall.

That´s it: Practice. Most of us want a most real simulation, but to think then you can fly after 3 days like a real military airman that was trained many month and years, you are very very wrong. Yes, it´s a bit frustrating, i stopped a misson last night because i didn´t get the target inside a small and narrow valley, controlling the heli, piont the laser , find small, tiny points that are targets (manpad) i hadn´t any chance. But after that my frustration changed, i was happy because i know that i will use this sim looong times. If it´s to easy, you´ld throw it away after a few days. For me the first thing to learn is not to attack every thing on my way but my mission targets, in fact when you face you are not in an superior situation, you would avoid any attack. No tank commander would expose his lonely vehicle in an inferior situation like forrest our city for .e.g. without assistant infantry. The heli is a mighty weapon, but easy to hit, so don´t you drive 250 kph and think you stop at the forrest border 1 km away without beeing liftet 800 ft high. Combat is no ferry flight, your point is ambush, not a cavalry attack.

Fascinating the deep avionik of this simulation. Men you have to learn alot. I´m long time user of FS , flying PMDG MD11 without porblem. But here, learn flying, learn systems, learn weapons and a lot more. You have to learn a lot what i have seen inside the mission against the pirats, othewise you have no chance.

Hey, that was the trick, now i can fly the mission. Dumb, i should have seen that !

Hi, thanks first for answers from all Pilots of this mighty heli. Ekran tells me sto start anti ice and i did, engine anti ice too, but maybe i didn´t switched it like it should, is i t a three way switch ? Okay, i start the misson again, i want to hit the a.. of the pirates now....

Hi, best military sim ever for sure. After some days of trainig i run the first mission, ossetian pirats, grate to cross the mountain border to hit them. But one thing happens every time, after some time flying EKRAN tells me ELEC on AKKU , wich says i´m now at batter power wich will then end in an autorotate landing. I switched throttels two step up to auto and the generator switches are in the upper position. What did i miss ? :hmm: Peter
