Mystery ordinance? OK, things got a little tense above so this is just a bit of fun :lol: On the right wing of the Ka-50 at http://rutube.ru/tracks/1901349.html?v=2f94855874fc84d79822bfa082890ed5 What's the white missile next to the rocket pod? I don't recognise it from the DCS BS manual. Could it be our fabled AA missile? :D PS - Search 'Chernaya Akula' in youtube. There's a 3 min clip of the Black Shark movie - it looks hilariously bad but the pilot is damned cool! PPS - you have to love the 'comedy commandos' in the link above - there's so much prancing about in the snow I think they must have hired the Moscow ballet

warbird, don't be sorry. i've got exactly the same question only i haven't been brave enough to ask!! also, when i add to a person's rep, it doesn't always seem to go up. do you have to be a certain level before it counts?

my preference would be for english but russian accent. i'm sure there'd be willing volunteers on the russian forum to help out :) why don't we have a poll with the various options?

Lol! These just get better and better! What are you doing to the poor Ka-50's?! Go hunt some MBTs Saying that, perhaps we could start a thread '101 inventive ways to kill a Ka-50' :)

you can get the shkval spinning around the place if your heli is also spinning. this can easily happen if you've got pedals and you're concentrating on the tv screen. was your target close to the maximum azimuth range? if it goes outside it then the shkval starts to spin

Can tell you what the result of this one would be :megalol:

I think the neat thing about Black Shark is that you can play it on a variety of difficulty levels. I've had it a while & the true sim proved too hard (plus I wanted to blow stuff up) so I played it on game mode. I've completed all the missions now without dying & so now I'm scaling back the easy-features (turning the easy-radar range down to 1k and turning off its display, using the shkval to target etc) Next will be getting rid of easy-avionics all together and after that will be turning on sim flight mode. You've got to do what interests you, but the game allows you to build up to becoming a Ka-50 pilot whilst still being fun (eg blowing stuff up)
