adam12 Posted October 26, 2011 Posted October 26, 2011 Just watched an Igla hit square on the front of the canopy. Pilot uninjured. Is this because pilot injuries are not modeled? What level of protection does a pilot enjoy in the real thing? (just ooc) 1
159th_Viper Posted October 26, 2011 Posted October 26, 2011 Kamov is a flying Main Battle-Tank :D That said, damage characteristics have been/are in the process of being reworked for all airframes in order to minimise possible peculiarities being experienced.

I sincerely hope that includes the Mi-28N... In a couple of missions with my squadron, there are 28's knocking about, and when we get a shot on them we have to fire several vihkrs at their asses (I had to fire 4 the other night!?), and they only give a .5 second burst with the cannon and you're in flames...

jib Posted October 27, 2011 Posted October 27, 2011 The trouble with Vikhr's in air to air mode is they often detonate relatively far from the target, this is why it is taking multiple missiles because they are not direct hits. 1 Mods I use: KA-50 JTAC - Better Fire and Smoke - Unchain Rudder from trim KA50 - Sim FFB for G940 - Beczl Rocket Pods Updated!

adam12 Posted October 27, 2011 Author Posted October 27, 2011 Some vehicle weight numbers: M1A2 - 61,366 kg Stryker - 16,469 kg KA-52 - 7,700 kg
sobek Posted October 27, 2011 Posted October 27, 2011 I'm guessing that the cabin can withstand rounds up to 12.7mm (.50BMG), anything in excess (20mm+) takes much thicker plating. Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two. Come let's eat grandpa! Use punctuation, save lives!
power5 Posted October 28, 2011 Posted October 28, 2011 Some vehicle weight numbers: M1A2 - 61,366 kg Stryker - 16,469 kg KA-52 - 7,700 kg Drive system of the abrams is a bit heavier than the BS. Tracks are not light. I am surprised at how strong the BS is against Hind. From head on there are many times when I can not get a lock on them and the Hind gunner lights me up with his cannon. I am usually fine for probably 2-3 second bursts from him. If I have started turning away I can even sometimes land. Similar to the Hind when I do get my cannon rounds on him first. My burst from cannon usually lights up at least one engine and sends him diving for a soft place to set down.

Same problem I have with Apaches. Six hits to kill one at times. They just won't die.
Boberro Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 Ka-50 has very heavy cockpit (armor) and it can survive tough damage, but surviving ATGM is not realistic IMHO :P Reminder: Fighter pilots make movies. Bomber pilots make... HISTORY! :D | Also to be remembered: FRENCH TANKS HAVE ONE GEAR FORWARD AND FIVE BACKWARD :D ಠ_ಠ ツ
