Hello, thank you for your comment. Yes, Su-25 and Su-25T modules dont get the attention they deserve, they are actually very well made modules and great fun to fly.

I am playing this campaign right now and it would have been impossible for me to make any progress without labels. There are just so many gun/IR AA. Admittedly I don't have head tracking but still. It is very difficult to defend against IR Missiles since you get no warning, especially with IGLAs.

Dont forget to use DIRCM and "Continues flares" and never go too deep. Its better to abort and go for another run than be on top of your enemies. There is so short a distance back to base, that you have plenty of fuel for several runs.

There is no way that I can survive for 3 mins after entering the combat zone :(

I kept dying and cracking on the first encounter with the enemy near waypoint 4 and I was only able to hit the enemy once. The missiles that I had wouldn’t even sustain a lock. Every time I try to hold a lock on the A10s it was so hard. I still haven’t finished the mission yet Edit: to be fair tho I don’t have a head tracker or a Vr headset. I’m waiting for the quest 3. But in the meantime I’ll have to play without any head movement

With the Maverick´s in the A-10, they dont need a constant lock from the launchplatform after launch. They are launch and leave. All laser guided/corrected munition need a constant illumination of the intended target; technically those munition do not lock onto anything, they see/follow the brightest laserenergy spot ie. the returnspot/reflection from the target. Therefore, with laserguided/corrected munition, you need a constant and sufficient laserspotreturn that the sensor in the munition can see, from launch until impact. In the case of the Vikhr, you need to lock the target pre-launch, get the "launch authorised" message, launch the missile/rocket, maintain laserillumination of the target until impact. That procedure is the same no matter the platform, the procedure are dictated by the munition, not the platform. And with every type of munition, they all have a minimum and maximum range, make sure that you are within those parameters. Which rockets/missiles did you use at which ranges? Whether or not you have headtracking gear, have no impact on the platform or munitions, the Vikhr weapon and Shkval sensorcomplex are frontal hemisphere orientated, so being able to look around makes no difference. Im sure that there are plenty of great tutorials on youtube on how to use the Vikhr, but if you like, i could make a video on how i use it and the Shkval sensorcomplex.

5:05 8:00 Is there a way to change Shkval's brightness and contrast? For me, the targets blend with the terrain a lot, so I can't see anything. EDIT: OMG I had no idea about the Mercury pod. I was trying to do this mission with the regular one. Going to give Mercury a try on my next run.

Hello Igor. Good question, i will take a look later today. I know there is on the Ka-50 module, but the Su-25T is a Flaming Cliffs module, so i dont know at the moment. The Mercury pod is so good, it makes spotting targets so much easier.

Yuh.em. goes red. I'm just going to adjust some settings...Facepalm.

This is very different from my Mission #1. Mine is to interdict two columns of armor coming down the coast road. Each column of T-72s has an Sa-9 and a Shilka at the rear. Behind the second column is an Sa-13. The road back along the coast is full of ZU-23s, Shilkas, and Manpads. No thermal pod. No ECM. My wingman and I get slaughtered every time. The autopilot is buggy as hell, which doesn't help. Sometimes, I get your Mission #1. Recon and targets of opportunity. Usually, I get this nightmare. I don't understand why my Mission #1 is not the one everyone else has.

Hello. Thats sounds very weird indeed. But the campaigns for the FC3 and a like modules are known to be buggy, i sure hope that ED will remake them at one time, since they are a ton of fun when they work. About the AP, try setting your barometric altimeter to 760, that can often fix those weird AP movement. For some reason the AP only works correct at "760". By the way, are you using the fully updated Open Beta of DCS or the stable version?

Love the T model what's the difference between that and the su-25t I was told T model is better for Cas and anti tank but isn't as. Maneuverable

@bmbpdk

3 жыл бұрын

Hello. The "T" model is a dedicated antitank model, the "T" is short for "Tahnkovvy", which means "Tank". not only that, but the "T" model incorporates all the improvements and lessons learned from the Su-25 experiences in the Soviet Afghan war. And the "T" model is also modified and optimised to use PGM munitions. The "T" model had more effecient engines which gaves a higher thrust-to-weight ration, lower IR signature and better Hot ´n dry performance, so the "T" actually where more maneuverable with the same loadout. The step from the first Su-25 to the "T" model was a quantumleap, much like the A-10A and A-10C. If you are interested in the history of the Su-25 i recommend the two books by Mr. Gordon and Mr. Komissarov. Famous Russian Aircraft - Su-25 ISBN 978-1-91080-940-2 and Sukhoi Su-25 Frogfoot, the soviet unions tank buster - ISBN 978-1-85780-254-2. If you can only get one of the books, i recommend the first one the most.

Meanwhile in my game, I’ve changed to the ecm pod, all long range laser guided weapons, and I get maybe 7 target before I’m struck on a roll out while absolutely dumping chaff and flare.

The ED campaigns changes often, ive heard several people saying that their version is much different, often to the worse. But ED is more interested in selling new campaigns than fixing the good old ones, so if you can play the campaigns, be happy, because the next update may break them. I have many things to say about the current state ED is in and their businessprocedures but that is a whole different subject.

Was that an auto ground lock you used?

How can you tell if you are targeting a truck or an AA? This mission is super hard :-(

@bmbpdk

2 жыл бұрын

Just look for two pointy things and the lack of wheels. Trucks are more boxy and square looking. If you mean AAA on flatbeds then look for trucks without the "box" behind the cabin. AAA in a static position is surrounded by a circle of sandbags; look for a circle with two pointy things in it. Often i dont see the AAA guns, i just see the circle, quickly lock it and then use a few seconds to confirm. Remember that for AAA you are looking for two barrels and for trucks you are looking for a "car", and then experience and repeatability does the rest.
