Jacks Posted February 7, 2016 Posted February 7, 2016 Are BST planning on adding a bombsight to the Mi-8?

Controllers: TrackIR 5, Thrustmaster HOTAS X, Saitek Throttle Quadrant (with DIY removable collective mod), Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals. Just trying to keep my number of takeoffs and landings equal!

1.JaVA_Platypus Posted February 7, 2016 Posted February 7, 2016 Aiming bombs is a kind of lottery right now. I used to be pretty spot-on with the bombsights in the old Il-2. But I guess I can't apply that skill in DCS anytime soon. It is just the way it is. I think they are concentrating on the development of their F-5. Wich is awesome and a very good addition to the MiG-21 (as adversary), the F-14 (as the MiG-28) and NTTR, as agressor. And besides, we got working fans now. Really, the Mi-8 is finished!!! Happy Flying! :pilotfly:
Jacks Posted February 8, 2016 Author Posted February 8, 2016 Can anyone recommend the most accurate way to aim bombs? Is a dive better or it is better to fly at a set height and speed and then release the bomb when the rafter passes a certain point on the cockpit?

Cibit Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 (edited) I fly level and sit in middle seat, when the target disappears beneath the bottom middle window release bombs. Speed and altitude are down to you but not too fast and not too high is a good start:) Try 120 Km/h and 300 meters up Edited February 8, 2016 by Cibit i5 8600k@5.2Ghz, Asus Prime A Z370, 32Gb DDR4 3000, GTX1080 SC, Oculus Rift CV1, Modded TM Warthog Modded X52 Collective, Jetseat, W10 Pro 64 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Adding JTAC Guide //My Vid's//229th AHB
1.JaVA_Platypus Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 I think there was something on aiming the bombs in the manual. But it is rather impractical. You are much better off downloading the mod that allows you to carry the S-24. (aim it as you would a cannon pod) And this is historic accurate as well. Happy Flying! :pilotfly:
