By request, I've done this small mod. HUD, front and side windows glass textures modified to make them 100% transparent all the time. This is specially useful when the sun is behind the aircraft at early morning or late afternoon, what would make the HUD very opaque. Here is the download link:

(click on the "Download" button on the upper right corner of the screen)

 

This is my first time doing this, so let me know of you encounter any glitches. The installation instructions are included. Files are installed on the Mods folder, so it doesn't actually change original DCS files, and you activate/deactivate the mod through the in-game Options > Special > Ka-50 screen. You also choose between English or Default (russian) cockpit versions.

 

I've removed the opacity of the glass, but intentionally left the green reflection on the HUD because I guess it's realisctic and it doesn't obstruct your view if you use the brightness knob on the Ka-50 HUD to lower its brightness. Despite that, I guess I should probably modify it to tone it down, but the method I have to do that may have to modify original DCS files, something users probably don't want. I might investigate this further if there's interest in it.

 

Please give feedback... Thanks!
