Kerberos Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 As the title says. And if so: is it implemented yet? I am asking because of this article: https://translate.google.de/translate?hl=de&tab=wT&sl=ru&tl=en&u=https%3A%2F%2Fmilitary.wikireading.ru%2F54527 google translate: "...three of the four bombs fell down with direct hits. The actions of the crew during normal operation of the sight are greatly simplified. The operator puts the sight mark on the target, turns on the mode and follows the target, keeping the mark on it. At the pilot on his sight, the indicator indicates the position of the target, to the left or to the right, and he tries to guide the helicopter on the combat course according to the instructions of the indicator exactly through the target, keeping the speed and altitude (visually, he cannot see the target, since it immediately goes under the helicopter). The calculator gives a buzzer at the right moment, and the operator only has to press the reset button." Here, the author describes some form of CCRP capability of the Hind where the operator has to track the ground target with the Raduga sight and the computer calculates a release point from that and gives a buzzer signal when the bombs should be released. Sounds really cool but I have not seen a mention of CCRP for the DCS Hind anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution foxbat155 Posted June 17, 2021 Solution Share Posted June 17, 2021 Mi-24D and Mi-24V have CCRP with KPS-53AV gunsight, but unfortunately in P variant this device was removed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sealpup Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 That article sounds more like the way the old-school bombsight that the Mi-8 sometimes used works. For the Hind, you get CCIP for some of the weapons, but no CCRP capability. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
