Following a similar bug report on Mi-24P, the logic of the rearmament screen should have parity across all modules.


While Vikhr (9K121) is the whole complex of Vikhr, what it fires is the (9M127) missile. Considering that armament screen shows what type of specific armament is selected, the name should be only (9M127) in the rearmament panel.

For some reason the text was removed from my post...

From what I can read, we have the Vikhr-1 missile in DCS. Vikhr-M is the whole missile system. Do you agree?

Vikhr-1 is an improved version of the Vikhr. In 2013 Russian MoD ordered over 6 000 of these missiles. This order was in part to prevent the manufacturer from going bankrupt. Delivery commenced in 2015 and was completed in 2016. The whole improved system, that uses the Vikhr-1 missiles is referred as Vikhr-M.

I was AFK when writing back. That's what I had noticed! Exactly, Vikhr-M is again the complex denoted by "K" in the GRAU-index (9K121). The missile itself, is the (9M-127-1). The "...-1" is the variant of that specific model of the missile. As I am looking at now in DCS, that is exactly what I looked for. Good job Flappie! 😎

 

In other words, remove the "Vikhr-M" from the name of the armament, and it'll be correct! Either that, or if you want to keep the callsign for the missile, than change out "Vikhr-M" with "Vikhr-1", as you indicated in the attached images. Both solutions work. Splendid!
