Avimimus Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Hello, This is just a small mod to the helilcopter's file that adds a few historical weapons: UV-16 57mm rocket pod UV-32 57mm rocket pod S-24 240mm rockets Just place the attached file in [your DCS main directory]\Scripts\Database\helicopters Note that installing this might cause some problems in multiplayer (due to checks aimed at preventing cheating).Mi-8MT.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfredo_laredo Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 This is great, but some screen shoots would be nice A.K.A. Timon -117th- in game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1.JaVA_Platypus Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 (edited) A screenie... basically the MiG-21 unguided rocket armament on the Mi-8. It is a correct historical load-out. To fire the big S24 rockets seperatly from the other rockets, you need to equip them on the most inboard pylons (so not like the screenshot above!) and select pylons '3-4' with the switch on the armament panel numbered (1) in the picture below.

1.JaVA_Platypus Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Why don't you upload this into the user-files on the DCS website? Happy Flying! :pilotfly: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1.JaVA_Platypus Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 (edited) So I tried this mod. But the UB32 pods are rather low poly models. I modified your lua file to include the UB32 pods from the MiG-21. They are visually much more attractive and they have the exact same effect. Installation method: 1.Unzip 2.This will overwrite a LUA file. Backup the original if you want. But you should also get it back with DCS repair. (Or possibly a new official patch) 3.Copy and paste the contents of the zip file into the main DCS folder. This should work for any version. (stable, beta or alpha) 4.If it doesn't overwrite anything, it is not installed correctly. No multiplayer problems encountered as of yet. Enjoy! :thumbup: PS, now uploaded the correct file.Mi8 Weapon mod.zip Edited March 6, 2016 by 1.JaVA_Platypus Happy Flying! :pilotfly: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackjackk Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 These weapons should be implemented to the official version. Couldn't the Mi-8 use the S-13 rockets as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattebubben Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I Wish the Mi-8 could use the 57mm rockets by default =P since they are one of the most common (if not the most common) weapons you see carried on the MI-8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hook47 Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Great work man! This is something I was wanting to do for awhile- now if we could only find a way to get the AT-2 Swatter MCLOS working! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Askerov24 Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Yes sir. 57mm rockets on the Mighty. Shown on the photo is 80 mm S-8 rockets, not 57 mm Acer Aspire E5-571G-713W/Intel® Core™ i7-4510U 2.0-3.1GHz/12 GB DDR3 L Memo/NVIDIA® GeForce® 820M 2 GB/1000 GB HDD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
