Hive Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 I hope so, too. And updated graphics, of course. Although after the A-10c II we are still talking about Right-Left-Click-consistency and so on... But still an awesome update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh ... i forgot, you will have a new page on Abris for MWS, and 2 Iglas, ahahah, ..that's all. My hope is that they'll have an option for only loading two Vikhrs per rack. One of the early updates on the 3d model showed a rack equipped like that. IMHO, there are a lot of scenarios where 12xVikhr is unnecessary - and having a 4xVikhr option to save weight and increase range would be ideal. There is some evidence this is one in real life and it is certainly an option (the racks can carry 2, 4, or 6 missiles). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torbernite Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 I'm not in such a hurry to see a new Ka-50 and don't ask for a totally new one either, but I quite want to see some new things from the red, a Ka-50 or MiG-29 after that. The short of new full fidelity red models these days is such a pity for me. It's so boring to get new toys only in blue style. Now I would accept even a pure recon new plane if possible, and certainly a Ka-50. 2 Human allowed, demon allowed, Deka never allowed. Distort allowed, provoke allowed, fight back never allowed.

kotor633 Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Hi, Before I get the Apache I prefer to wait for BS III. That paired with the Mi-24 ... what more could you want. And then, possibly, the Mig-29 as a fully operable module ... ************************************** DCS World needs the Panavia Tornado!

It may well have been those screenshots (showing 4 rather than 6 missiles per rack) - so you may be right that is what I saw. However, those missiles are 9K121/9A1472 Vikhr... not Igla...

Sorry but the only thing Igla is used for is jets. Against other helicopters, the Vikhr is much better than the Igla. More range, faster and a proximity fuze. In these categories the apache is simply at a disadvantage. But what the apache will have is better SA. It will be exciting Edited November 25, 2021 by Hobel 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avimimus Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 I suspect the acquisition to release path for the Igla will be faster - and it also won't set off the laser warning receivers on the target - so there is probably still an advantage in a close fight with an Apache (which could easily happen in complex terrain).

Cukrrak Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 (edited) Ignore this post, I had old information. Black Shark 3 has apparently been canceled and we can thank russian lawmakers for that. This appeared in the original 2021 Roadmap newsletter: Quote Note: Due to new Russian Federation laws pertaining to the gathering of information of Russian military equipment, we have had to reconsider our plans to add new systems to the Ka-50. We continue to make the updated cockpit freely available, as well as a highly detailed updated external model.

A few months ago this was, again, reversed. As far as I know, the latest is, we are still getting Blackshark 3, with Iglas, missile warning system, new external 3d, but no DIRCM system as originally planned. I believe new 3d model is visible in the opening of recent 2022 and beyond video.
