So why can't the Ka-50 be outfitted with four racks of Vikhr ATGMs? Perhaps a mod?

I'm curious as it would be quite handy having 24 guided missiles onboard.



 

If they don't do it in reality for a good reason then i guess i can just forget about it. But otherwise perhaps someone could make a mod to allow it?

Ah i see, that would make a lot of sense actually. I bet it wouldn't be too hard for few engineers to add said wiring and modify the pylons to accept the weapons.

 

At the most it would be a hefty job but not impossible.

Adding wiring to an aircraft can be and most time is a very difficult and time consuming.

Weight and balance issues, chaffing issues, etc. As for the game I do not know what you have to do to change or if it would be possible.

To whom it may concern,

I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that.

Thank you for you patience.

 

 

Many people don't want the truth, they want constant reassurance that whatever misconception/fallacies they believe in are true..

If u want to add another 2 racks, you can do it. Don't know if they will be moveable (maybe it is needed to add also moveable pylons). But remember it ruins game...

 

In RL IIRC they aren't mounted on external pylons due of no moveable pylons and weight. Also they are very draggy.

IIRC, the movable part belongs to the Vikhr rack, but the inner hardpoints are not wired for ATGMs.

Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two.

Is there an ETA yet?

 

Probably 20 monthish, if all goes well that is

Ka-50 Lua file, identify the weapon you want on the inner mounts, copy and paste the CLSID data line to the 2 outer mounts. Mission Editor, New Loadout and add them manually to the outer mounts, call it whatever you want. 4 pylons with the same weapon loadout on each.

 

Don't fly on line with that configuration, others will be very annoyed if you do.

 

Not tried it but I imagine that will work, it does on the aircraft Lua files.
