Mi-24a Krokodil

Description
Current State:
Version 0.3 BETA. BUGS MAY OCCUR

History
Mi-24A (Hind-B NATO classification) was the first production model of the legendary Mi-24 helicopter series. It was built relying on a "Flying IFV" concept. The early model could carry up to 8 soldiers and use a wide choice of weapons, like S8 rocket pods, UPK-32 gunpods, bombs and guided missiles AT-2 Swatter.


Addon info
It's a port of the ArmA 2 OA mod, which was made by Pathetic_Bezerker. All I've done is changed configs to the ArmA 3 standards and added some A3 features to it.

Features
- Can carry up to 8 persons as passengers and 2 as FFV gunners
- Dynamic loadout from Jets DLC
- Detailed and historically accurate model
- Additional skins, which can be changed via BIS Garage (Russian, CDF, Takistan, more will be ported later)
- You can cosplay Rambo and Red Dawn with this helicopter!

Known issues
- A little strange flight model
- No advanced flight model (will be implimented soon)
- Pilot hands position need to be fixed
- No server key

Credits & Thanks:
PATHETIC BERSERKER - For the vision, 3D modeling, texture work, and rudimentary animation & config stuff behind creating this addon.
zGUBA - Advancing and directing config and general clue giving/direction pointing.
ICEBREAKER - for supplying Government Army of Lingor camo and roundels for GAL and Molatian units.
BIS - For allowing the use of textures (specifically instrument clock faces) As well as the great game platform, tools, and community support we know them for.
LEOPOTAM - For correcting the Russian on the instrument panels and for his awesome Blender to O2 export/import tools making this project possible for me.
And a great thanks goes out to both EricM and RKSL Studios.
Additional thanks goes to Lyotchik-Sniper for his help with implimenting doorgunners and dynamic loadout
Javik - tester, the person who most cried about adding Mi-24a into Arma 3 and very shy person

FAQ
Q: Will there be an RHS version?
A: RHS have very hardcoded and sometimes even broken configs. I tried to implement chopper on their configs, but that was bad idea. CUP is simple, good and goes like clockwork. Maybe in future there will be one.
Q: Will there be an *your variant* paint scheme?
A: I've got 4 or 5 paint scemes that I've not implemented yet. They will be released a little bit later. But now i can say that there will be North Vietnam paint scheme and SLA variant
Q: I've downloaded the helicopter, but I can't find it! Where it is?
A: It's located under the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, which is CUP faction. In future it will be implimented to CDF, SLA and Takistani Army
Q: Will there be a compatibility with UNSUNG mod?
A: It will be added as a separate file, but it still will be requiring CUP as dependency.
Q: OMG! Does this soldier has a cigarette in his mouth?!
A: Nope, it's just a texture :D
Q: Is there a NVA version?
A: Yes, you can find it here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2485406522
IT'S FORBIDDEN TO USE THIS MOD ON MONETIZED OR LIFE SERVERS

Hope to see an RHS version one day so a lot of units can use it. :)

круто видеть качественный мод, так еще и от земляка (если ты конечно реально с махачкалы)

Someday I hope to see the janky physics of this resolved. Until then, it will be absent from my mod list.

Would you consider making a standalone Krokodil helicopter mod? :D
