@CasmoTV Old school guy here training for high intensity conflicts - for hover fire the technique is to start from a stationary hover and pitch the nose up to get the aircraft to move back. Once you get the aircraft moving back you slowly drop the nose to the target then fire. If done properly the recoil of the gun will help counteract the forward movement. For more skill you start to unmask while moving rearward and then just before you get above the trees you lower the nose and pull the trigger as the target is exposed.

I remember buying a pack of Micro Machines as a kid in the mid 90s that included a little OH-58 model. Spent a moment trying to figure out why there was a 'News Helicopter' included with a bunch of military vehicles. Kiowa has been my favorite military helo ever since.
The grease pencil mark on the windscreen is the “ABRM”. Aerial Ballistic Reference Mark. I always thought it was weird that they had holographic gun sights all the way back in WWII and now in the GWOT we were using a dang grease pencil mark on the windscreen. Classic example of life in 58D😅
Very clear from these videos that you have quite an affinity and affection for the ol' bird, it's nice to see, and hear, when you talk about it on your streams. I am definitely sold on the module, it's getting bought. Clearly, Polychop has done a great job here.
These videos have me ready for this little beauty to FINALLY release! Thanks for all the details from your own experience that you've been able to share.
I'm changing my resume to read 15J 'Farp Kid'. I never knew you guys called us that but I totally get where it came from. From my perspective our training on the M296 was lacking. I was always embarrassed when it failed(in any number of ways). As I became more experienced and after some time with the civilian gun rep I learned that things like a buffer assembly that was 15 years old and many 10000s of rounds through it would almost always fail and that's all we pretty much had was all worn out parts but only he knew they were really unserviceable. If the rep gave us a new one, it was like the holy grail and we valued it. Looking back, if i was in charge we would have ordered all new buffers, springs etc and rebuilt the guns every gunnery with new parts, not just the best looking parts that we had. These skills were probably attrited by the armament MOS being brought together with avionics/electronics, and loss of people with experience to UAV etc. Anyways the M3P was great for us as well, slashing the workload of gun maintenance, very reliable, and ease of repair/maintenance in the field(the 2 pull pins you speak of).
We had that happen, Bagram 2011, TF Phoenix. A then NCO soon to be SPC was getting the TI to sign off on the 50 after he PMCS'd the 50. Well at somepoint instead of the 50 dry firing like they wanted to, a hrydra rocket launched out the other side of the aircraft and smacked the T barrier in front of the aircraft, since we parked them in stalls. We called him Rocket Man or Elton John for the rest of the deployment.
33lbs per 100 rounds. The 50 was always my favorite. Felt like an old WWII Thunderbolt or Mustang diving down on a target with that thing roaring away out there. Poor left seater got the fillings in his teeth rattled out 😅
I honestly think this is the most I've been excited for a module and a company coming up. Polychop seems like it really has it together really hope they do more modules
Well if you have some background in sound design I’m sure you’d be handy to go over and help them recreate gun and missile sounds from recordings made over a decade ago so that people can be happy about their $69.99 video game.

Man...I remember my brigade commander running a two ship KW into the Tangi Valley in Afghanistan shortly after extortion was shot down. He went Winchester in about 15 minutes near EBK. Barely got out of there.
As a 7314, I got to participate in 3rd LAAD Avenger bubbas running Stingers and that MP3 .50 cal against targets on San Clemente Island back before GWOT. It was a thing of beauty.
When I was applying for WOFT in 2011 this is the aircraft I wanted to fly after seeing what they do downrange but unfortunately they were phasing them out 😔
I think it would be really cool if they were able to implement a draw your own reticle like in the f4 with the grease pencil. I'm glad you can at least move it. Thanks for the video!
@CasmoTV - you are the absolute bomb. Thanks for giving a nod to the pain of the Armament dogs in the pain in the ass that many of these things were to maintain. You ever fly A model Apaches and see us absolutely lose out shit when doing a CBHK on one? Or fight with the Upper/Dupper to load the gun? Or my absolute favorite, having to drop a fully loaded mag because of an internal jam - sweet jesus that thing is heavy!!
I'm kinda surprised we aren't seeing more preview videos on the upcoming CH-47F by Eagle Dynamics which is slated to be released by the end of this month. Bad sign of things to come?
Any chance you’ll have time to do a guide on joint operations with Apaches? How does that work, do you lase and the apache fires in LOAL? Can we punch in coordinates in the Lima? Thanks for all the videos already your love of that bird shows every step of the way
I imagine learning and mastering this weapon system is Proooobably the bread and butter of the bird?? Or would you say better to first master things like missiles or rockets?
The audio clip used for 50 needs work, hopefully it'll be fixed before release. Currently the audio track cuts short after firing the gun, it needs a follow through
Amazing video, it would be awesome if ED considered making the UH-1 marine huey and the AH-1z viper mostly because im planning to join the marines after college
I can't wait to see how it flies compared to the real thing. Might have to pull a cyclic and collective out of a spare and see if I can get my wife to allow me to make a cockpit in the living room.
I don’t expect you give some analysis on the handling of the plane. It sounds like not too difficult to fly. But where would the KW be in terms of handling? OA-6? Apache? Or the UH-60L mod?
1:38 Depends on the specific cartridge used, but sounds really close. With the weight of an average .50 BMG round you'd get something like 25 pounds or a bit over, then you add the links and 30 pounds might be pretty on the money.
Casmo this is so handy! I am using your methods for gun runs in the Mi8. DO you know if you're in trim because you feel it, or is there an actual indicator? In the Mi8 I can hop into the copilot seat and I have a Drift Angle display to show if i'm skewed left or right of centre. Is there any kind of indicator in the Kiowa? Like a little display needle leaning left or right?
Gotta say the helo looks great from what you have shown so far. However would you recomend this for a solo guy that normally just flys the apache/ka50 for A2G stuff.
The m296 has linage to the an/m2 adapted to an ejector bomb rack from hard mounted receiver points in fighter wings. The m3p was developed with an elastic cradle for the avenger, which was modified to be hard mounted to the UWP/CUWP.
@CasmoTV, what is the synthwave song you use for your closing credits for all of your recent videos, as well as the electronic one at the end? absolute bops.
thanks for your videos, I would also like to play a Helo, I tried the Gazelle and the Apache a bit, the first one is very mobile and fun, the second is powerful but very heavy and much less mobile. the Kiowa seems like a good middle ground to me, from 1 to 10 how much do you recommend it?
Thanks for another tutorial. I hope you dont mind me asking: You have around 2000 hours in the Kiowa, is these divided between hours in the left and right seat?

Question from someone who knows nothing about guns, why is it that sometimes we use "Cal" and other times "mm" I find it confusing to determine the size of the rounds fired....
@@Pekins_ They generally either use the military designation (the US military is surprisingly metric), like 5.56x45mm NATO and 7.62x51mm NATO, which in traditional (i.e. old) civilian terms would be referred to as .223 and .308, or the original naming schemes like 9x19mm Parabellum/Luger/NATO, which were never called by the inch size. For guns that are not in (current) military calibers it's AFAIK most common to use original marketing names, like .45 ACP etc. The one really common exception is the .50 BMG, because officially in military parlance that's called the 12.7x99mm NATO. But "fifty cal" rolls of the tongue a lot better than "twelve point seven mill", and .50 BMG was the civilian and military designation for like 20-30 years before they went metric, that it's understandable why it stuck. I don't find it particularly annoying after a while, if someone says "cal" and they're not an idiot (I've heard someone numpties say "9 cal"...) I hear that as "0.XYZ inches" and of course millimeters are millimeters regardless. And if someone says "five-five-six" I assume they're referring to a gun with a military origin for the design, rather than a purebred civilian hunting rifle, since most of those would specify ".223 Remington" as the caliber. The really annoying part of all this is how often people JUST say for example ".38 cal" or "9mm". There's .38 Short Colt, .38 Long Colt, .380 ACP, .38 ACP, .38 Super, .38 Smith & Wesson Special, .38 S&W, or 9x19mm Para, 9mm Glisenti, 9x18mm Ultra, 9x30mm Grom, 9mm Browning Long, 9x21mm, 9x21mm Gyurza, 9mm Action Express, 9x23mm Steyr, 9x23mm Largo, 9x25mm Mauser, 9x25mm Dillon, 9mm Winchester Magnum, 9x18 Makarov, etc. etc. And .38 inches and 9mm bullets are the same size to begin with! And the .357 Magnum is the same size bullet as the .38 Short/Long Colt! ARGH. =)
.50 Cal = 0.5 inches = 12.7mm (the .50 BMG is also known as the 12.7x99mm NATO). The AH-64 has a 30x113mmB cannon, not a machine gun. And the Tank Killer, if by that you mean the A-10, has a 30x173mm cannon, which has over TWICE the muzzle energy. Compared to the .50 BMG the 30x173mm cartridge has over 10 times the muzzle energy.
