Does anyone know of a way to make the EOS screen in the Ka-50 clearer? It is difficult to actually see anything using that system in EECH. In the DCS module it is nice and clear and easy to use. There is no reason why it shouldn't be so in EECH as well.

Hi there. Comparing DCS and EECH is like comparing chalk and cheese. DCS is a modern simulator using a modern graphics engine and utilising modern hardware.

EECH is an older sim, still using directX9, so saying there's no reason that they should be different isn't the case.

The KA-50 flyable model wasn't in the game originally, and was added in an update by another forum user. Most of the new flyable models are user content, so any issues with those models would need to be fixed by whoever made them. Or you're welcome to try modding it yourself to improve it. If that's something that interests you.

There were a few videos on youtube of the KA-50 that had been modified by a user, but they never posted on the forum about it. They had made quite a lot of good changes, but as far as I know, it's not been made available to the community.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamov_Ka-50 The Ka-50 is definitely one speedy SOB. It should be the fastest helo in the game. I have done the circle-strafe thing with it.

Curiously I wonder if anyone has considered upgrading our AH-64Ds to the proposed AH-64E. Or considered adding the night attack Ka-50 variant. That Ka-50-2 also sounds interesting (not to be confused with the Ka-52 even though that's basically what it is but with a turreted gun).

Yeah Delfi ka50/52s are the most Advanced helos in the russian armed forces, about ka50-2 i don't think that someone Will include it in the game and regarding the Ah64E i think that we have to enjoy current D variant For some time again. I hope you've downloaded new ah64a\d models made by Rapota they're awesome!

If only I knew where to get them. The AH-64E is simply the D with a more powerful engine, datalink capability, and the ability to interact with drones. They're also considering a more powerful radar.

Delfi they're in the new us heli topic that you'll find in the first page. The apache guardian has many other features such fly-by-wire capability, face gear transmission to accomodate more power, instrument Flight rules, t700ge-701d engines with 1994shp, can fly higher, faster and carry more payload than the d model, anyway you can increase power output and fcr range in the gwut as i made long time ago (i've increased power output from 14 to 14.8 and fcr max range from 8km to 16km)also ah64e has a glass cockpit with TEDAC replacing the ORT in the gunner cockpit and with DVO removal.

I take it I just copy the files into their respective folders.

Edit: They work quite well and look very nice.

The Shkval on the Ka-50 still needs work to make it a viable attack helicopter. If I could I would just give it the FLIR the Mi-28 and Ka-52 both have.
