Does anyone know where the green tint comes from?

I know earlier Ka-50s had a yellow tint

But our Ka-50 should have a black and white one

All footage I've seen from shows the image being black and white and yellow, but never green

 

People where discussing it on other topic, but i don't know anything about a green tint

It is probably same thing like 2 second ATGM trigger delay. Pilot press a trigger and start counting "one, two" and the missile launch, so he wrote in to notes 2 second delay, because he doesn't know if he count "one, two" it actually take 1 second. The devs found some pilot notes where was 2 second delay so we have real 2 second delay now. What is probably wrong, because it doesn't make any sense so huge delay.

Same thing is green skval TV. BS3 is probably being worked on by a young team that doesn't remember the 80s. The old 80s CRT monitor look green  while they was turn off, as you can see on your second picture, but the turn on picture was B&W. Because none from team used old CRT TV in his life, so we get green shkval, because on photos it is actually little bit green, but only while is turn off.

What i thing is, all this black shark update was actually upload into 2.8 by accident. It is some WIP of BS3 and it even did no goes thru internal check yet.

Unless they have a manual stating the 2 seconds delay, I do not think it is logical.

Vikhr guidance can only start after it is launched, since the laser beam is actually received from back of the rocket. I could understand other types of laser could require up to 2 seconds so the sensor gets oriented to toward laser reflection, but in caseof vikhr, 2 second delay is likely wrong.

The only reason for this could be intentional delay to make sure that launch is intentional.

Regarding shkval display: I would not be surprised if multiple types were used.

E.g. in this frame you can see yellow, I think that one would correspond to the first image posted showing brown display. No direct experience with them, but I recall displays witch such brown color were used in e.g. KUB. The green one looks what would likely be a commercial mini tv, maybe even sourced from west. We could perhaps look up for Su-25 cockpit pictures, but there is a chance that display is not the same.

I would be not surprised if the first and last photo is actually made in the same cockpit only different light condition and angle.  Our first TV in 1987 was small B&W Mercur and it looks exactly same green while he was turn off as it is the shkval TV on the last photo.

That isn't necessarily green, that just looks like a crt reflection

Amazon.com: Toshiba MD13Q42 13" CRT TV con reproductor de DVD : Electrónica

On this video it's seen perfectly, when turned off TV is greenish but when on it's black and white.
