BO-105 HKP-9A progress news

digital combat simulator, folks.

keep military as priority.

civilian fliers, whats wrong with flying a armed version but without weapons / empty loadout?

and please, i need my co-pilot tow missile operator BO-105 multi-seat..

any delays to this feature, i rebuke the civilian variant!!!!!

It is that simple, and not in the slightest bit controversial.

Well, not necessarily. If, and I'm pretty certain this is the case, the flyables are of modular desing, it CAN be pretty straightforward to "bolt off" stuff and release the resulting stripped civvie craft with the full-blown mil version. Now I'm not getting me knickers in a bunch if no-one does this, but still...

Let me end that debate straight away :

Without taxes on civilians, they is not combat stuff. Now bring me that cessna :P

Progress on the TOW Launcher:

Pretty tricky to model from Internet-pictures.

That looks great

I know absolutely nothing about what the system is supposed to look like, but the 3d model is good looking. :)

Looks good indeed! GJ.

EDIT: Here is a little docu on the BO-105. Please do not focus on the first narration phrase. :doh:Enough has been said about that.

You do great, I would say.:thumbup:

Shit... with a HKP9 module I must migrate to being a chopper pilot...=)

You do great, I would say.:thumbup:

incorrect.. :megalol:

Will the unarmed version come with a Red Bull skin? ;D

If it doesn't I'm sure someone will make one.

Probably not because of copyright, it will be a modded one ;)

Then let's call it the Bad Rule skin or something. Oh, and the civvie pilot totally needs to have that Chuck Aaron mustache, unless that's copyrighted as well. :D

Great work man :-)

Ok - I need to stop the TOW Launcher here. I need better photos of it. Especially some view which shows the parts between the tubes.

Aren't the 16 pictures contained on this page enough to model the TOW system ?

EDIT:

Here are some more:

and 3 more with empty tubes:

I already have those pics. After all ,thank you for the effort

what I'm searching for is, the mounting of the carrier (screen).

I assume it looks like this.....

There's plenty of pics of the A129 wearing 4xRb55H (like this one). I'll see if I can find a detailed picture of the inside of the pod.

Actually, if the pod is the same, the mast probably isn't. :(

Perhaps a swedish user can email the museum for some extra detailed pictures of the areas of interest? I'll ask in my wing.

Perhaps someone of us Swedes will visit the museum again soon? :)

I have some pictures from there, but I really don't think any of them is more detailed than the ones posted here...

Great work! I can't wait to blow this thing out of the sky with my Ka50 :)

Gimme Gimme :)
