Only way you’re getting 14km from vikhr is if its air launched at optimal conditions. And not on this game, here its hard limited
Yeah, thats not uncommon though, look at Starstreaks.
but there is
How can you confirm?
i mean from helly
Dont forget proper top attack mode for hellfiers, spikes and PARS, with option to change that in direct mode and top attack.
Western missles are nerfd to teh ground already with being forced to always go for direct mode.
Cant even circumvent the armour/era and go directly for the ammo as the weapons where intended to do.
Heck you cant even control the spikes, like its whole uniqe prupose is not even modeld.

wait bit
Yeah… forget buffing the soviet AGMs, the other 9 nations need TLC first
It won’t hit sht at that range even if you somehow manage to sling it that far. The vikhr is roll stabilised, it needs to spin constantly to fly straight without deviating. There is footage where the hit tanks at 10km range irl, at that point the missile is very inaccurate if you watch closely due to the aforementioned reason.
In game they can never reach 10km which is unrealistic. Likely a lot more physics about missiles are unrealistic in game

They had the whole range when the KA50 came out and was a very dark time in WT. Whole top tir was unplayble, worse then now with CAS. Heli airfields even had its own AAA, no long range jets.
So physics where changed in WT where the lower you are to ground the less range your weapon has to do to air densety. Heck there was not even a VT1 missle and the only thing that could do anything with luck was a ADATS but even then you did face 5 to 6 KA50´s at the same time. You had only MIG15 and sabers. I dont want to go back to that time.

you cant stack them, and 12 vikhrs >>> 2 lmurs
Vikhr will not fly straight because the aiming method involves a spiral motion in the laser beam.
You can look at one of the developers’ devblogs.
need to find video where they say is over 12km rage with helly
it’s a 14.5km range NLOS missile, you can sit on the Helipad and blow everything up
why is this even being entertained
Its because they could first spawn with them. And it was a p2w cash grab heli
This one.
I know what you mean. By straight I meant actually going towards the target instead of spinning out of control.
my mistake is 12km not 14 on helly
12 is still an unrealistic figure that official sources do not write about.
here is one but i like to talk about lumr
