marcel1980 Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 I fly with the Ka 50 and i noticed one thing - why is it, that when i'm in gun range, i can't hit a target even if it's like 1,5km away and i have the reticule exactly in middle of target all the bullets miss. Then i lock the target and suddenly every shot hits. Why is this? This does not seem like a realistic damage model...:hmm: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kengou Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 Could be the laser ranging that comes from a target lock helps the aiming system of the gun.

marcel1980 Posted April 18, 2020 Author Share Posted April 18, 2020 Ah maybe i forgot to lock the laser to the new position. I only moved the targeting reticule - so may be i have to lock the laser - get the distance on skhval. Sorry for not speaking in the exact terms im no pro at the moment :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kang Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 I'd assume this is a ranging problem. When locked the gun automatically adjusts elevation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M1Combat Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 Yes... Range the target first. As a side note... When using the HMS to fire, hold the ranging button and it will hit "exactly" where you shoot. Quite a sweet system IMO :). Same for air targets, but manually lead. The Shark is quite the A2A heli opponent :).
