d0ppler Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 I've read that some versions of the Ka-50 has a shkval supplemented with a thermal imaging system, being able to spot things during night, and some versions where the whole shkval has been replaced with a bit more hi tech sensors. Is it likely to hope for a patch where we can choose a Ka-50N (Nochnoy/Night)? Will this demand a lot of resources in terms of programming?

miguez Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 This would be absolutely fantastic, and a great extension of this simulation! Another vote from me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GGTharos Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 It is not likely to get an aircraft version that a) Is not in service b) There is not documentation for it as far as ED is concerned Almost any version of the Ka-50 other than the one in BS fits at least one if not both of the above.

Chillspider Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 its fun to just cruise around at night though. Is there a way to make an aircraft illuminate a specific area at specific time or triggered. I know the one mission does it but can you make it do that in the editor.

Reticuli Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Forget FLIR for a moment, does the Shkval even have basic light amplification ability?

Spartan1-1 Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 (edited) Yes there is a way to design missions with illum. Im not much of a mission maker yet though, but there is a way. The Ka-50 has limited night capability. Turn down the brightness and adjust the contrast of the shkval while looking at it with NVG's. The system will not lock onto a target, it must be held on the target manually, but you can hit targets with ATGM's. Unguided munitions work just as well. -What I would like to see implemented in the game is loadable illumination flares and white phosphurous rockets (to mark targets). In multiplayer you can have one bird illuminate and mark targets, and his wingmates knock them off.
