[. . . ] To do so, follow these instructions: · Turn on your computer (Windows 95/98 should load automatically). That means that just putting the disk in the drive for the first time starts up the installation program. If Autoplay Doesn't Work If the Autoplay feature does not work when you put the CD in the drive, here's how to start the installation program yourself: · Double-click your "My Computer" desktop icon. · In the window that opens, double-click your CD-ROM drive (it's usually the D drive). · In the list that appears, find a file named setup. exe and double-click it. [. . . ] Continue lowering the torque in 1 or 2 percent intervals until your climb stops. If the helicopter descends, you've lowered the torque too much and need to increase it slightly. When you're sitting in a stable hover, you've taken advantage of ground effect. Liftoff and Hover at High Altitude The process for hovering out of ground effect is practically identical to hovering in ground effect, except that above 50ft or so you'll need somewhat more torque to maintain the hover. Begin the process by executing a smooth lift-off, applying just enough torque to begin an ascent. Since you're currently in ground effect, it requires less torque to climb than when above ground effect. Maintain the current torque reading, applying pedal and cyclic as necessary to prevent any other movement. If you've applied the minimum collective required to climb within ground effect, the ascent should slow and ultimately stop as you climb above 50ft. Without any further control inputs, the helicopter should hover at this torque setting. If the helicopter continues to climb, you've applied a little extra collective. Reduce the collective by 1 or 2 percent at a time until the ascent stops. If you reduce collective to the torque required for an in ground effect hover, the helicopter will continue to descend until about 50ft. For a safer rapid descent, push the cyclic forward as well as reducing the collective. Pushing the nose down will build forward airspeed and prevent settling with power. Flying Backwards The helicopter has the almost unique ability to fly backwards. This can be very useful when manoeuvring into a firing position--or backing away from enemy forces. To make the helicopter back up, begin by pulling back on the collective. This raises the nose, directs some of the downwash forward, and slows the helicopter. Eventually, the helicopter will come to a complete stop, then begin moving backwards. Flying backwards at 13 knots. The more you pitch the helicopter up, the faster your backwards motion becomes. Keep in mind, though, that this reduces the amount of downwash being directed down, causing the helicopter to descend. If you need to back up in a hurry and pitch the nose very high, be sure to add collective in order to maintain your altitude. Also, keep in mind that you can't see out the back of the helicopter. You're basically flying blind while moving backwards, and could collide with a building or a hill. 45 To stop the backwards motion, simply pull the nose down by pushing the cyclic forward. [. . . ] Its major improvements included the reduction to one engine, easier ingress and egress, and improved elevation for the main armament. BRDM-3 4-Wheeled AC with ATGM First seen in 1977, this upgrade to the BRDM-2 vehicle carries the AT-5 ATGW, which has the capability to penetrate up to 600mm of armour with its heat warhead. 90 BRDM-2 4-Wheeled Armoured Car The BRDM-2 boasts better performance than the BRDM-1, heavier armament, an NBC system, and night vision equipment. This vehicle entered service in 1966. 2K22M TUNGUSKA-M Air Defense Vehicle The replacement for the ZSU-23/4 Shilka was first observed in 1986. It has a computerised fire control system with a laser range finder and radar. The cannon are effective out to 3, 000m, and the missiles out to 8km. ZSU-23/4 Shilka Air Defense Vehicle The ZSU 23-4 Shilka first entered service in 1965. [. . . ]
