This addon works only with my WeaponPACK (included in rar file). All of weapon stations are made as specific station code and will work only with this weapon pack.
Standard commands for activating Loach features:
LANDING GEAR - Nose light deploy/retract at any speed. Don't forget to retract before shooting.
ANIMATION 10 - Show/hide doors. If ever you will fly in cold enviroment and feel uncomfortable, you can fly with front doors instaled, It doesn't do anything. And will not help you. It's just for different look in winter.
ANIMATION 1 - 'NVG'
You can realy fly low and slow. It needs practice.
I am sugesting to fly low on 40-50% of throttle. around 45degree vector control, use pulse rudder to control left right, it is realy easy. With little practice you can even hoover. Without fake flaps and airbrakes.
Important here is to use rudder and vector thrust control.
Fuel. Remeber it is small chopper. And it can carry only around 54 US Gals of fuel. I belive it is enough for around 2 hours of flight here maybe little more.
Skins.
All serial numbers as far as I know are based on photos and arehistoricaly correct.
Two birds flew during operation Urgent Fury 68-17191 and ...(dont rememr right now second bird number).
Weapons.
XM27 – M134 Minigun
M260 7 tube rocket launcher. First years of operation with mk40 rockets and later Mk66 rockets.
Since M260 could fire Mk40 and Mk66 rockets here are two types. Early ears older and later new hydra rockets.
There is no gunsight for this helo. Acording to one of the pilots they were using "grease pencil mark on the windscreen, . And practicing shooting this way ". So here it is embeded to windshield. During night with 'nvg' it will glow a little.
Enjoy and have fun.
Jope everything works fine.
Report bugs. Will fix ASAP.
More six guns and night stalkers will follow.
