As someone who flies the Mi-28NM and Ka-52 often, I’m fairly certain this is new (before it would only work on most air to air missiles and manpad type missiles)
I’ve always feared PARS LR especially for having a pretty high hit rate on my helicopters but this just nullifies it completely
If the Z-10ME was properly modeled with DIRCM and weapons it would go crazy
I think it also affects agms now. so things like firing mavericks, spikes, etc towards ka52s no longer work
Is there anyone could find a video from the Pakistan pilot test Z10? I do remember from that video that shows Z10 could take more cannon ammunition(at least 600 rounds) with higher RPM, and the other video shows it has HMD for using TY90
I have the impression that they have reworked the DIRCCM so that the AGMs are more impacted by this defense system, in any case on the furom everyone is talking about it at the moment
I have an impression on that video but IDK where I saw it. Gonna look at CCTV app first. See if I can find it.
Do you guys happen to have pictures of the Z-10ME-02 with ATGMs on the inner pylon? Otherwise gaijin will pull their usual nonsense and limit it to 8
Nope. I don’t think that ever happened.
Rip so it will never get 16 ATGMs
Likely not. Should have guided rocket pod though. And I don’t mind if CM502s come in cause every IR heli only get 8.
Doesn’t the Israeli Blackhawk get 16?
IDK might well do. But in this way it is black hawk anyway.
Also Z10 is only a medium heli and not a heavy one like AH64 or Mi28 or Ka50/52.
Eh well it doesn’t matter for me id still bring 8 TY-90’s and 8 hopefully CM-502KG’s or maybe 501’s of they add them
I don’t think u can bring 4 501s, likely just 2.
Ahh ok. I don’t know much about the 501 does it have a heat warhead? Might be worth bringing 4 CM502’s and 2 501’s for MBT’s
It’s SAP or HE. 40kg as well. So literal Maverick but with wings.
no, this rumor is from a trash article, the missile is just larger than AKD-21, basically longer, so no more than 100kg, while AGM-65 is over 300kg
Z-10A also got the WZ-9C and it’s now a squadron vehicle aswell
did they just… nerf the standard Z-10 to make the Z-10A and Z-10ME more desirable? 🤔
also this kinda just makes the base Z-10 a sidegrade to the tree Z-19 at best
