Sorry I asked this question before, but I still don't have the answer and can't fiqure it out on my own.

How do you activate the NVG night vision feature of the Kiowa?

I can't find my user manual .pdf and it It was only a page or two anyway of which I don't remember the subject being covered.

(Before I get scrutanized, I own a legaly purchased copy of the chopper). I just can't find any directions about the NVG simulated feature.

How to I switch this on or off?

Thanks, Captdoug, Florida

hello captdoug - are you shure that it is implemented ? You can operate the helm-mounted NVG with the L-Key, that`s all so far as I know.

I'll try that key command and let you know. I'd didn't think about NV being "implemented".
you mean activating it, or a general on / off?

The area51 site describes and has a screenie of a NV view which appears to look like the Iris A-10 feature.

Anyway thanks, The "L" key is a start and hopefuly the answer.

regards,

thanks, I see that now. What confused me was the teaser or trailer video on the Area-51 web site.

The vc cockpit view appears green an enhanced night lighting similar to that of the Iris A-10 in the video.

I know there are a few NV addon versions so I'll check them out. Tha't probably what was used unless they filtered the video, green for the night shots.
