A Polish bird: PZL W-3 Sokól Beta download.

[Stratos]

The PZL W-3 Sokół (English: "Falcon") is a medium-size, twin-engine, multipurpose helicopter developed and manufactured by Polish helicopter company PZL-Świdnik (now AgustaWestland Świdnik). It was the first helicopter entirely designed and produced in Poland.

 

The PZL W-3 Sokół is a medium-size, twin-engine, multipurpose rotorcraft. The helicopter employs a relatively conventional design and construction. It is powered by a pair of Pratt & Whitney Rzeszów-built PZL-10B turboshaft engines; the original powerplant, the PZL-10W, was based on the earlier PZL-10S – a licensed derivative of the Russian-designed Glushenkov TVD-10B turboprop engines which had powered the Polish-built Antonov An-28. Composites are used in the construction of the three-bladed tail and four-bladed main rotors.

 

The Sokół has been offered in a number of diverse variants and is capable of performing a typical range of helicopter missions, including passenger transport, VIP, cargo, EMS, medevac, firefighting and search and rescue. When used in maritime environments, the rotorcraft is typically outfitted with floats, a transponder, a global positioning system navigation system, night-vision equipment, and a Lucas winch.

 

The variant we propose is the W-3W/WA Sokół Armed version, with twin 23 mm GSz-23Ł cannon and four pylons for weapons used by Polish Land Forces. W-3WA is a variant with FAR-29 certificate. 34 built.

 

3d model was built by Pedro Caparrós under my request and with written permission to use in DCS (or any other sim), you can find his work here:

Gràcies Pedro!

 

Transformation and mod made by Hawkeye60 of this forum with me as a tester and info provider. The chopper is in Beta status, fully functional, but with some problems to be solved. Some skins included, If anyone want to paint it feel free to ask for the skin template.

Very nice work ! I suppose it is AI only, right ?

 

EDIT : Reading the documentation told me that it is controllable if you own the Ka50 ! My bad !

Just installed !

Very nice work, It's always a pleasure to see more RW in DCS ! :thumbup:

[ikaruga]

I got a crash in the editor when Iwanted to change the loadout.

 

It worked fine ingame with the Crew menu, though ...

[Hawkeye60]

If editing the supplied ones causes issues,

Try creating a new load out.

 

 

Let us know if this is ok.

 

 

We do not like BUGS! (The Bunny one is fine, just not the other kind....):D

 

 

Thanks

Interesting. I always thought that it has ATGM capability, but it didn't... What makes it nice one as not all requires those.

 

Is it possible get a civilian version of it somewhat? To perform medic tasks.

AI or flyable?

[Eaglewings]

Thank for sharing and for the hard work.

I understand I need to copy the cockpit files of the KA-50 into the PZL W-3 file.

Does this indicated that cockpit used is that of the KA-50 or it has its cockpit?

[Eaglewings]

AI or flyable?

I believe it is flyable.

[Stratos]

It uses the Ka50 cockpit hence it's flyable.

NIce work！

[solidGad]

Looks interesting!

 

Does it have it's own cockpit or is it the Blackshark's cockpit?

 

Thanks!
