Okay, I am mad at Mil. The ASP-17 sight of the Mi-24 is also used by MiG-23, so, they could have given it a HUD!!!! 
 

Imagine having the MiG-23 altitude and speed scales! Altitude scales that switch between radar and barometric altitude!!! The artificial horizon!!!

Could it be possible to mod this on???

Do I understand correctly that you would like to add a HUD to the Mi-24?

You mean like this? Digital Integration Hind, 1996 (they did the D version).

 

At one time, this was the best simulator, accurately representing the Mi-24's combat use.

The sight was a bit of a misnomer, but at the time, anything was forgivable. 😁

Why are you showing the on-board radar station that was installed on the MiG-23MF? What do you want to say with this?

Just that it would’ve been cool if Mil had been able to repurpose the MiG-23 HUD for the Mi-24, and a mod for such would Also be cool

You do realize that what you showed is a target detection and tracking system? The Mi-24 does not have this system.

You're showing something that was created for the game. There's no such sight in real life. As far as I know, DCS is a simulator that faithfully replicates real helicopters and planes. Unless I'm missing something. 🤔

Yes, I was shocked when I saw the HUD back in 1997 or 98, I know it's not real, simply wanted to show how it looked.

I don't understand anything in russian except Davai Davai!

You're not, but that's why mods exist- to modify, extend or outright create non-existing capability.

AG is talking about mod, not trying to change DCS itself.

I still don't understand why. The Mi-24 is such a simple helicopter that it couldn't be simpler. 

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think any modernization was implemented, even in real life. There were many designs, many ideas, and in the end, the Mi-24 remained as it is. Perfect in its simplicity.

Agree, but people do it because they like to do it or just because they can.

I don't mind, not going to use it, but don't mind someone else having fun with it.
