Cyprus Air Command Skin

[Kang]

Seeing how Cyprus is one of the very few countries in DCS that is pretty much entirely included in a map and, as far as I know, an active user of Mi-24Ps (maybe not for much longer but that's that), I wonder why there is no corresponding livery included with the DCS Mi-24P.

I would like to make it a request.

The reason it probably isn’t in by default is the Mi-35P that they used had fixed gear and shortened wingtips

And they sold their birds to Serbia.

Still even the second picture you included shows they make up for it with having quadruple ATGM launchers, so it seems to me that having ours stand in would be more than reasonable.

Thanks for updating that for me. Still, not really a reason not to have the livery, I figure.

I definitely agree it’s likely possible, idk what radios they use, but their weapon system is identical to ours with the exception of being able to use UGP-23-250. Unless they also have different radios, the changes needed would be fixed gear, short wings, black cockpit with NVG compatible lighting, and SPO-15

I guess I am not that much of a purist there, lest we could scrap quite a few of the (already not that plentiful) liveries we already have.
