No. Admittedly... they are probably much more detailed and complete than what was planned in 2008. That said, it was pretty disappointing in 2012... to gradually have to admit they weren't coming (although never officially cancelled). Just had to wait another ten years... makes waiting a year or two for completion of a early access release seem like a flash honestly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3WA Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 So far, from what I can gather on the different forums - new 3 pylon wings, igla's, improved model, everything else up in the air because of Russian laws (i.e we probably won't get the other stuff ).

Which makes me wonder, will we be able to correct the INS with satellite data from ABRIS? I guess we should be able to type in the correct position every now and then.

It will probably ne multiple ways. IIRC you can even use the SHKVAL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3WA Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 What I REALLY want to see, is a Shkval that actually "see's" by contrast. Air targets should be able to easily be seen then. You can't hit CRAP in the air right now. Air targets will simply not lock. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness it will also (hopefully) include fixes for the things that are currently broken (Shkval locking, Shkval wandering off on its own...) and will also (probably) introduce some new and exciting bugs because stuff happens... 2 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xfirf Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 I would like to get a "early-access" like release where they deliver the new features step by step. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avimimus Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Moment of truth coming. We'll see if they let us load less than six Vikhr per hardpoint (similar to the Apache) We'll also see if they've improved the Shkval (honestly, I'd be happy about it losing lock or wandering sometimes - but only if it was realistic and due to contrast limitations - rather than a bug). IMHO, perfectly locking a vehicle through trees is also a bit flawed. Anyway, we'll see if there are any improvements to the squall! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want those 1x12.7 + 2x7.62 pods like on the Mi-24. Would also like to see more unguided heavy rockets. 4x S-24 for example. I'm as hot and heavy for the BS3 as the F-15E, maybe more. Really want to see that improved eye candy. Some of the planes, but all of the maps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want those 1x12.7 + 2x7.62 pods like on the Mi-24. Would also like to see more unguided heavy rockets. 4x S-24 for example. I know those were offered as possible export integrations (along with the R-73). I doubt it happened though. I remember I did once mod in the S-24 for the Ka-50 (it was alright I suppose - but that was years ago). At least with the Igla hardpoints those were offered for the Ka-50-2 and integrated into the Ka-52... so we have an idea of how the wings would work/look with them. The Ugroza (S-8Kor & S-13Kor) might be more plausible (guided rockets, like the APKWS). However, there is limited evidence of them entering production over the last twenty years (which makes it a bit harder to sell). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
