Black Shark 3

A further development of the well-known Black Shark and Black Shark 2 projects, which are dedicated to the Russian Ka-50 attack helicopter.

The Ka-50 is the world's only single-seat coaxial combat helicopter. It can effectively perform anti-tank missions, provide close air support and hit point targets on the battlefield with a wide range of weapons.

A Revolution in Rotorcraft Warfare

Building on the acclaimed Black Shark and Black Shark 2 modules, DCS: Black Shark 3 takes the Russian Ka-50 attack helicopter to new heights. As the world’s only single-seat coaxial combat helicopter, the Ka-50 merges impressive agility with a fearsome armament loadout. It excels in anti-tank missions, close air support, and precise point-target strikes, making it a staple of modern battlefield operations.

Upgraded Lethality with Igla AAMs

One of the most groundbreaking additions in Black Shark 3 is the ability to mount Igla air-to-air missiles, greatly expanding the helicopter’s threat envelope. Whether you’re defending against hostile aircraft or hunting unsuspecting targets from above, the Igla system ensures you can respond with lethal precision. This new capability cements the Ka-50 as a truly multirole rotary-wing platform.

Defensive Edge with Missile Warning System

Survivability is key to battlefield success, and the Ka-50 receives a major boost with a cutting-edge missile warning system. By detecting and alerting you to inbound threats, this defensive suite grants precious seconds to deploy countermeasures or maneuver away from danger. Stay one step ahead of enemy gunners and surface-to-air launchers with this advanced layer of protection.

Realistic Inertial Navigation System

For the first time in DCS, Black Shark 3 features a physical model of the Inertial Navigation System (INS), bringing unprecedented levels of realism to your flight experience. You’ll need to perform alignment procedures before each mission, track drift errors as they accumulate, and correct your heading using preset fixpoints. Mastering this system is essential for pinpoint navigation in low-visibility and high-threat scenarios.

A Total Overhaul for a New Era

Beyond new weaponry and systems, Black Shark 3 showcases a completely revamped 3D model—inside and out—using cutting-edge rendering technology. A meticulously detailed cockpit, complete with six-degrees-of-freedom interactivity, pairs seamlessly with the professional flight model that accurately simulates coaxial rotor dynamics. Combined, these enhancements immerse you in the raw power and complexity of this legendary attack helicopter like never before.
