DCS UH-60 Blackhawk mod

[StrongHarm]

Excellent video on the operation of the UH-60.  If you've never seen the How it Works animation series by Jared Owen, check out some of his other vids, like How a Jet Engine Works and How a P-51 Works.  Awesome stuff.

In my time the Nijrab-Surobi road was not yet open, but we opened the Alasay valley.
Not easy days unfortunately.

The road was not opened. Was there during the two alasay battles. Not easy days indeed

Estoy encantado con el Black Hawk 

Para mi es de lo mejor ( en helos ) , que se haya creado 

Lo ùltimo que estoy volando , es la misiòn de rescate de personal  de un barco que se està hundiendo 

Chapò por los creadores 

Mi màs sinceras enhorabuena por la labor

Hi all. Fell in love with this mod. 

But, when is it gonna have weapons? I'm thinking to ununguided rockets and miniguns on it. Would it be too hard to set 2xM134 + 2 rocket launchers on it?

Would be nice even without aiming sight. 

[Tanuki44]

Probably never, for the arming, it is necessary to have the SDK of ED,

Mod makers does not have access to it.

 

[Airmage]

The AH-6 mod has those weapons on it. How did those modders do it?

 

[Tanuki44]

The AH-6 has no AI gunners... 

[Airmage]

I meant on the pylons, not gunners. Loadout 2xrockets+2xminigun.

 

[Airmage]

I took the liberty of an attempt myself. Came up this far. Don't worry, i won't share 

Problem is that, although i got to assing the fire buttons, it won't shoot. Not sure how to do that yet. Any ideas?

[Kinkkujuustovoileipä]

Hi folks, since it was brought up a lot, I created an "official" thread here: 

Which will allow me to update the first post with more news

Can't promise I will actually check the forums any more often than I already do though

[ebabil]

I wonder the changelog of 1.2

[Pappy2]

Thank you "Mitch" for these superb paintings.

Interesting news.  The dev of the UH-60 mod started his official thread under the mods forum here on the DCS forum.  He stated he was told either ED or a third party dev has plans to do a UH-60 so there will not be any weapons implementation into this mod because of SDK requirements.  Curious to see who has stepped up to do an actual paid module.  Would not surprise me if it was ED or maybe even polychop.  I encourage everyone to shift gears over to his thread for future requests/info as he is the one continuing to work the mod.  Seems like a very good dude and will continue to support this mod to the extent he can.
