Black Shark reticle measures?

[VS461]

Hey all,

sorry for another thread but I got no solution from Goooooogle and no idea after RTFM :D... So I couldn't find anything about the Ka-50 reticle's data: which marking is parallel with the helo axis and what are the angle values for the other markings both horizontal and vertical. Without targeting computer, you only have the reticle that helps to aim properly (and, of course, you know all the aiming angles by heart:smartass:).

The other reason: I wonder if the S-8 rockets' flight path is correct or not (yes, I have aiming angle charts. And I am fanatic). So I also need the angle between the B8V-20 launcher's axis and the helo's longitudinal axis. If anyone can help me, (drawing etc.) it would be nice.

Cheers!

You might be able to measure things of a known height at a known range then get the miliradian (or whatever angular measure) that the ticks on the backup HUD pattern are.

Buried in my PC is a breakdown of the Stby reticle depression values for the various references. I will try and dig it out. I think its for the MIG29 however the HUD unit and stby reticle look identical.

It would be a looong procedure:)... These data are given in the flight manual of a plane/helo.

IvanK: thanks in advance!

You are a fanatic after all ....
