Russian Targeting Pod/Laser Designator Thread

You can always try

I don’t even know where to begin to look for detailed information like that. I’ve tried.

Well the Zoom we already know? because it is just licensed DAMOCLES so I’d assume it’s the same

This is not a licensed Damocles. There’s no confirmation of that.

Would there be such information for the T220 for when the MiG-35 comes around? If not then I guess the USSR is kinda screwed, I suppose the Su-30 can receive Damocles but other than that it’s hopeless unless they guesstimate Russian TCP technology.

At least to my knowledge, there’s not much info on T/220 either

@Ralin

Ah ic, always heard that it was licensed DAMOCLES so just assumed that

I haven’t looked into it yet

Unless the Su-30MKM, however it is unclear what tech tree it will be in

No, I haven’t come across any such reference.

They may have been mentioned together only as part of a comparison between them when selecting pods for Russian airplanes

Nothing interesting, unfortunately. You need the FOV and the generation of the thermal imager

can you post full magazine page?

For the FOV thing, wouldn’t this cover that, or is it not enough?

No, it’s about being able to rotate the container. And I’m talking about the FOV of the zoom section. I mean, what kind of zoom it should have.

Ah, I see

Unfortunate

Anyone here has information about the very first version of GOES optical system ?, some of them mounted on Mi-8MTKO (maybe).

Spoiler

It’s a MTKO, yeah

And for the OE system, it uses GOES-321 I believe

Wish we had an update on this. I would really like to see the USSR air tree get a proper pod.

I check that post more often than I want to admit.

With the KH29TD now only tracking within 7KM, it’s getting very painful to play RU CAS (outside of the SM3). The 29 and 27 could really use a pod.

Hopefully RU air gets a little help. In general the state of it is sad. The SU24M coming won’t change anything.

It always only tracked within 7km, somewhere between 6 and 7km.

The T always tracked from 6-7 but the TD was 9-12 when introduced with the SMT
