Description Update: 04/06/2024.
All enemy kills recorded in the Logbook. Egyptian intelligence reports increased radio chatter between opposition groups in Cairo.  Combined w/a cyber attack a few hours ago that took down all radar-based SAMs in the area, there's a high probability of further attacks on Cairo.  The military is scrambling all available fighters in a show of force over Cairo while local authorities investigate 4 locations pinged during the cyber attack.

Once confirmed, EGF will mark enemy locations w/Red Smoke and friendly positions w/Blue Smoke.  CAS units will then proceed to clear those areas of hostiles.

Western Coalition forces in the region will be providing additional air support.

**
The mission can be completed using any jet or helicopter.  The following aircraft are selectable during the mission: A-10C II, AV-8B, F-14B, F-15E SE4+, F-16C, F/A-18C, JF-17, Su-25T, Su-33, Su-34, AH-64D, Ka-50, Ka-50 III, Mi-24P

- Completion Times:
- 1.5+ hrs: CAS
- 2.5+ hrs: CAP

If you are a novice helicopter pilot like myself you need to memorize the cold start routine and all important cockpit controls and procedures. This training is intended to be repeated over and over to train you which switches to turn and in what order. You can practice at night or during the day. You can take off or taxi to the destination and the mission will finish.

<LAST UPDATE> 29/03/2024

A pretty heavy open sandbox training mission on the South Atlantic map. There are no threats.
Modules Required - Supercarrier, (any of the modules you want to train in of course :D )

6 Ranges to choose from, Sheffield, Ardent, Antelope, Coventry, Conveyor and Galahad for Ground Attack, Air to Air, Anti Ship, HARM / Radar and Runway busting.
A rescue mission scenario activated via the radio menu.

"Ambient Spawns" - I don't like being the only one taking off so I've added AI that spawn when you do around the base and on the carrier.

A large carrier battlegroup with busy (but still functional) Carrier decks, including the Supercarrier GW, HMS Invincible and Tarawa.
Airbase populated with Statics and ambient units.

Tankers and AWACS available.
Smoke on targets and Air to Air "drones" available via the Radio menu

There is only one mission file included which contains both hot and cold spawns.

There are 2 versions included, one for hot starts and one for cold starts.

Iran attacked Oman and several landing points are reported north of the peninsula. We do not know what the final objective of the Iranians is, but it is feared that they will rush south to invade the UAE taking advantage of the surprise and the relatively weak forces at the moment.
Your goal will be to repulse Iranian troops from Oman. Good Luck !
Campaign Update !

This is a mission to test if the socalled In-Ground-Effect (IGE) is actually noticeable.

At altitudes of less then one rotor length the In-Ground-Effect (IGE) should provide some extra lift.
You can try and feel if this is the case by reducing the collective to account for the IGE.
This is barely noticeable at least to myself. Maybe this is not even modelled correctly in DCS?
Any experienced helicopter pilots can maybe comment on this.
In theory with the coaxial rotors of the KA50 this IGE should be more pronounced than with other helicopters.
Unfortunately there are no charts available for the KA50.

** Included are voice overs and charts and pictures explaining the effect. **

It is the 12th of September 2023. Ukraine wants to recapture the "Boyko Towers" in the Black Sea that were occupied by the Russian Federation. The Russian Federation has placed radar sensors on the towers to detect any enemy movements from far away, covering a wide stretch of ocean. Your task is to land on the oil rig at sunrise.

BLUE FORCE since it's Ukrainian. Feel free to change the helicopter to another blue force chopper.

The president of the Russian Federation has been assassinated at an OPEC meeting in Dubai. You need to land on top of the roof of a particular skyscraper to retrieve his "Cheget" suitcase. You have the assistance of local arabic guides that will guide you to the landing spot, telling you when you are off the edge of the building or within the landing spot.

It is the Monday 14. August 2023. Russia has terminated the grain agreement by the UN and actively patrolling ships in the Black Sea. The Russian Frigate "Moskva" has forced the Korean Ship "Korean Rose" to stop and wants to land onboard the vessel with a helicopter. YOU are that pilot flying a KA50-Black Shark 3 and want to land on the helipad of the Korean Vessel "Korean Rose". You are already approaching it at a 90 Degree angle and have to slowly manoeuvre close to the helipad to land.
