Russian built a/c for Wild Weasel missions

[+ST0RM]

Hey, one more thing. The hangar screen that Erwin used was awesome and got me thinking. Did the Russians ever use highway strips, like NATO did? If so, how hard would it be to add them to a few of the Red sites on the map? Would be great for the Mi-8 and Frogfoot.

 

Again, just thinking out loud. Time to fly... (2x B-2As)

STORM,I'm currently trying to locate you a video (where the heck is it,too many data disk!) where Russian military aircraft using highway for runway.

I'm having issues with RapidShare as well, or the policies here block me from it, so if somebody can just PM me it, email me it, I'd appreciate it. OR we can just decide that like the F-35, we can upload it so people can enjoy it, even as a beta, much like the F-35.

Deleted. If anyone wants the updated chaff/flares and lights, PM me.

Storm, East Germany was full of prepared Autobahn runways.

thank you for the bird and those nice ini uzupdates, the only thing is the pit needs a bit 3D rework on the front right window but i think it`s all WIP so ... Good work!

Erwin Hans send me new version of su-39 cockpit - it's GREAT!

[+lindr2]

About flares for su-39: Su-25 normally use 4 X ASO-2V flare dispensers - total 128 flares, in cause heavy AD (in Afganistan for example) used 4 additional ASO-2V on engines nac. Total: 256 flares Su-25T & TM & SM also have special IR noise system, created during afganistan war.

lindr2,256 flares!Wow!what's the number amount for chaff?

[+76.IAP-Blackbird]

I have four engines in this plane! but it has only 2???

[+lindr2]

In Afganistan chaffs was not needed. Su-25 has 8 places for mount CM. You can mount Chaffs or flares on each place.

But main protective factor for Su-25 is armor 10 - 24 mm total ~ 1100-1500 Kg

76.IAP-Blackbird: 2 engine inputs for the 2 rotating discs at the front of both engines. :yes:

[+76.IAP-Blackbird]

Oh yes right sorry I just overread it .. thanks for this reminder ;-)

Lindr2, the Su-25TM (aka Su-39) has been updated from the old ASO-2V system mounted on the engine nacelles to the UV-26 system mounted in the tail. The UV-26 dispensers give the Su-25TM the ability to hold 192 cartridges of chaff/flares. Hence my ini edits reflecting this. Erwin's model even has them built into the skin.

 

Shall I provide references?

Can we have soon? Please?

Thank you guys for this lovely plane and weapon systems

Ok! no need references, i read my info again. You'r right. But how about 'Suhogruz' IR noise generator. Have idea how to create this?

 

[FastCargo]

I don't think such a thing (IR jammers) are modeled in the TW series.

How does this work in RL??? looks interesting I know flares but this thing is new for me.

As FC said, IR jammers are not implemented yet. This came up a while ago when someone inquired about adding an IR MWS (missile warning system).

 

Since I dont have a solid understanding how an IR noise jammer works, I wouldnt have a clue as to how it could be added.

 

Now a DIRCM/LIRCM system, thats easier to understand, but still isnt available.

P.S. None of the images you linked are showing for some reason. Just Red Xs

Excellent info!No need to add them!

Less .ini work to do.
