''''''KH-66'''''


The KH-66 requires the radar in beam mode and the weapon selector to the appropriate S-24 position.
The KH-66 (aka. "Gorm") requires the radar in beam mode (set right most switch on the radar panel on the right cockpit wall to <code>Fixed Beam</code>). The beam mode locks the radar forward centre and downwards 1.5 degrees (indicated by a fixed pipper in that position).
 
The weapon selector to the appropriate <code>IR-SAR</code> position. The position determines the priority pylon, but once it's fired you can fire a next one without changing to a new pylon. The IR-SAR switch below the weapon selector must be set to <code>SAR</code>.
 
Radar lock is not necessarily required. It is hard to aim, but fun.
 
'''''Kh-25MP'''''
 
Is an anti-radiation missile, which can only be fired "mad dog" (firing without a lock) and therefore radar does not matter. The weapon selector must be set to the appropriate <code>S-24 RKT</code> position. The position of the IR-SAR switch does not matter.
 
The missile tends to angle up from the nose direction, so it should be aimed a bit lower than normally expected.
