Alecksss Posted January 26, 2022 Posted January 26, 2022 Are the any future plans to add the CRV7 rockets especially to contribute to the British apache skins we're getting? i believe the CRV7 is used by both US and UK but US favour the Hydras 1

The Mk40's being increasingly rare, and only used to deplete old munition stocks.

Cdodders Posted March 27, 2022 Posted March 27, 2022 (edited) Will the CRV-7 rocket pod make an appearance on the Apache? Edited March 27, 2022 by Cdodders 2
Rick50 Posted March 27, 2022 Posted March 27, 2022 AFAIK it's not planned, because US Army did not use that rocket. It's apparently roughly a 2002-2005 era US Army Longbow. AFAIK, the CRV-7 is only used on UK British Army Apaches. For other users you need to look beyond Apaches, such as CF-188's and CF-5's and such. It's a cool rocket, clearly has benefits to it. But it won't appear in this DCS module. Similarly, for the same reason, we won't see Stinger air to air heat seeking, nor will we see the Israeli Spike missile that's been carried on IDF Apaches for many years... because neither was carried on US Apaches in those years. 1
