Upon reaching maximum launch range, maneuver the aircraft to position the target marker within the
missile launch zone reticle. Once aiming is complete, the target line-of-sight symbol will be within the
missile launch zone reticle.
When the "LA" message appears, release the weapon by pressing the weapon release button on your
joystick or by pressing the [Space] key on your keyboard.
Step 4
Take note if the target was destroyed by the missile. If not and range to target still permits, launch
another missile. Remember that you must lock the target the entire time the missile is in flight. If the
lock is broken prior to the missile reaching its target, the missile will most likely miss.
While the missile is in flight, maintain the aircraft’s current heading such that it does not exceed the
Shkval’s angular gimbal limits. Try to avoid high angular velocity that can cause the missile to lose
the laser-guidance beam.
Step 5
Turn off the laser rangefinder by pressing the [RShift-O] key. Remember that the
rangefinder/target designator has a limited, continuous duration time, which is about one minute.
After that, the device needs time to cool down or risk damage. During this cool-down time indicated
by "Л", a green lamp will flash at 2 Hz; when the device has sufficiently cooled, the lamp will
extinguish. The cooling time is nearly equal to the work time, and it depends on environment
temperature conditions.
The "Vikhr" has limited capabilities against low-speed air targets such as helicopters and low-speed
aircraft. Engagement of air targets is the same as described above. However, the launch range
