Gloom Demon Posted November 6, 2013 Posted November 6, 2013 How far away can a target be for the Su-25T Klyon laser to be able to effectively illuminate it? For example if the maximum range for firing the X-25ML from a low altitude is 8 km, however, when firing it from a high altitude, the range rises to 20 km (from the missiles_data.lua). Will the Klyon be able to work at such a distance?

falcon_120 Posted November 6, 2013 Posted November 6, 2013 Most likely not. Maybe is you have clear weather it might be possible but I don't know how is simulated in DCS.
SFAL Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 It works regadless. Line up target ebgage over ride an release from 18km. Thats the 25ml If you can release 2 with 5sec diffrence. The count down will be for the last one. If your speed is around 380-420 impact is usualy at 10 km from distance
Gloom Demon Posted November 7, 2013 Author Posted November 7, 2013 Ok, I'll try that. But is it necessary for the target to be locked on by Shkval? Or I can simply point the slew box to the target with the maximum precision and the Klyon will illuminate in that direction?

SFAL Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 Automatic tracking is usualy at 12km for a tank size target. Ships and budings can be tracked sooner if u adjust the box. And no you dont need to track it. You can guide it. Very effective to defeat IR sams and manpads.
Gloom Demon Posted November 7, 2013 Author Posted November 7, 2013 Bu guiding you mean keeping the slew box on the target? AMD Ryzen 3600, Biostar Racing B850GT3, AMD Rx 580 8Gb, 16384 DDR4 2900, Hitachi 7K3000 2Tb, Samsung SM961 256Gb SSD, Thrustmaster T.Flight HOTAS X, Samsung S24F350 24'
kontiuka Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 Bu guiding you mean keeping the slew box on the target?Manually keeping the slew box on the target with the laser on (even though the shkval isn't locked onto it). Similar to how the original Su-25 does it by manually steering the laser.
