SU 25T HUD Weapon Symbology

[packer_edge]

New to DCS and loving it. I am struggling with the weapon symbology on the HUD. Anything I've managed to find online with regards to the SU 25T weapons doesn't seem to say what the HUD symbol is for each weapon, so when I'm playing some of the instant action scenarios I don't know some of the weapons I've been loaded with, and therefor don't know what deliver system I need to work with (ie. do I need to turn the laser on or not, is this fire and forget or not, etc.)

 

Is there anywhere I can go so that when I see a weapon symbol on my HUD, I know which weapon that is and I know how I need to deliver it? Some I've figured out, but I'm struggling with others.

Even for Instant Action mission you're welcome with briefing before the start - there should be loadout provided. (LAlt+B ingame)

 

Look here for loadout tables and short descriptions at the end of the doc:

Head to the ingame manual (\DCS\mods\aircraft\su-25t\docs\) and training for more comprehensive weapon delivery tutorials.

Yes, it is quite different from NATO symbology. But there is an official DCS Su-25T manual available here.

What I usually do when I'm not sure is check the weapon stations panel to see where it's loaded and then look back at the wing to see which weapon it is. After a few missions, I learn that symbol.
