Rocket/Gun knob behind the pilot?


Recommended Posts

How's called the knob that you need to rotate to shoot rockets and guns? The one behind the pilot, right side. And is there a list that links each position with the proper weapon?

 

Thanks!

I don't understand anything in russian except Davai Davai!

Look at section "PPK-800 Systems Preparation and Check Panel" in the manual:

 

“НР/АКС” selector. Unguided rocket and gun pods ballistics data settings.

o 0 – S-8KOM rockets with anti-tank/antipersonnel warhead

o 1 – S-8TsM rockets with smoke warhead

o 2 – S-13 rockets

o 3 – S-24 heavy rockets. Not used

o 4 – S-8M HE rockets

o 5 – UPK-23 gun pods, twin 23mm

 

The ballistic data is used for impact point calculation. The selector position

must match the selected weapon; if not, the impact point will not be calculated

correctly.

At the start of a mission, the rocket selector switch will be automatically set to

comply with selected rockets from the mission planner. If more than one rocket

type is selected, the selector will set first rockets by hard point number (outer

on the left wing is #1 and outer on the right wing is #4).

Before a second rocket type is used, you must select the dial position manually

for the rocket type of gun pod.

The same operation must be done after rearming the helicopter during a

mission.

The Blue version of Ricardo+Devrim's HD cockpit comes in a JSGME-ready package ready to install. The procedure for manually installing is also described there and it is the same for the black cockpit (as far as I remember):
