New Modules
New damage model modules have been added to the Ka-52 and AH-64 Apache helicopters. Each module is responsible for a specific set of functions of the helicopter’s electronic equipment. The list of added modules include Flight Control Panels, an Electro-optical station, a Radar, Avionics blocks and IRCM blocks.

Modules For Other Helicopters
As for filling in remaining helicopters with modules, those already in the game will be given modules gradually with the release of subsequent updates as we’re going to be looking at on-board systems for each of them and make changes to the models. New helicopters that are added will be introduced with a full set of modules straight away.How Does Disabling Modules Work?
Let’s talk about how disabling systems works. For helicopters that have new modules, it’s quite simple — each system can be disabled either by the complete destruction of the module or by damaging it, but with a certain chance depending on the type and amount of damage.
Updated Tail Destruction Conditions
Previously, helicopter tails could only be torn off by various means of hits, but not by collisions with anything else. It is important to note that even though the ground obviously has 100% efficiency against aircraft, it is not considered a specialized mean of destruction. At least it wasn’t considered such in the game until now. However, since a bump even on the hull of a helicopter can quite easily cause damage to the elements inside, which depending on the severity of the collision, can lead to damage of the tail or even to it being ripped off. We’ve now introduced the mechanics of destruction of elements in the tail booms of helicopters from hard clams, both by the tail itself and by the fuselage of the helicopter when hitting the ground and environment, such as trees and various buildings. This will minimize the number of successful take offs after very hard bumps against the ground where the helicopter doesn’t crash but instead flies on to base or even continues to fight as if nothing had happened.Improved calculation of center of mass displacement after tail boom separation
