SH-60

[b00ce]

SH-60 would be great. My office mate happens to be a sierra pilot. Might get him into DCS, and could be a resource for development :thumbup:

 

Only question is, which version of the SH-60 would have enough systems info unclassified to make it?

The UH60A/L is being sold on the civilian market. With the exception of certain systems, like the APR-39 and AAR-57 (which the corresponding systems are emulated in the A-10C and F-15), it should be fairly easy to get documentation.

APR-39???!! That was just getting installed in the scout OH-58's back in 1979 when I was stationed in Germany. Surely they must have updated that RWR by now! That unit just gave us a specific tone for each radar threat and we had to memorize what each one represented. I would think that something as primetive as that would not still be in the cockpits of modern day helicopters!

APR-39 got updated quite a bit throughout the years but kept the name, they just updated (V) numbers. By the time I left the military in 1995 they had new, improved receiver antennas and of course the tones were gone, replaced with a voice. The test voice was "zoo 23, tracking" or some such. Still in a very computery voice, but hey beats a tone.

 

Here's a video with a lot of APR-39 voice testing stuff:

Glad you like us! :)

 

A SH-60 would be fun. Perhaps once we finalize our current plans. We'd love to take on a helicopter at some point.

 

@Cobra847

 

any updates in this regard?

HH-60H CSAR/SOCOM support bird would be best. Hellfire, crewed M-240 and GAU-17. an excellent Mi-24 opponent.

As a Seahawk enthusiast I would pay hundreds of dollars for Heatblurs Seahawk. Definetly Insta purchase for me.

New NAVY helo would be excellent addition to DCS and complement other aircraft for your Forrestal class. Even if only AI.
