The Hokum has four hardpoints two on each stub wing and can carry many weapons mixes depending on the mission requirements. Selecting a weapon automatically switches the head-up display to combat mode and activates the hemlet-mounted sight display. Making the weapons safe returns the head-up display to navigation mode and switches the helmet-mounted sight off. i m+ i l+ i Select next weapon Select previous weapon Weapons safe To fire a weapon press the n. If the weapon fails to launch check the lock failure status on the helmet mounted sight display. 30mm Cannon The Hokum has a powerful 30mm 2A42 cannon mounted on the right (starboard) side of the fuselage. The cannon is fed selectively from two containers allowing a choice of either 230 high-explosive rounds or 240 armour-piercing rounds. The cannon automatically tracks the selected target and can be rotated from ­2. 5 to 9. 0 degrees in azimuth (left or right) and from +13 to -40 degrees in elevation (up or down). Armour-piercing rounds are effective against armoured battlefield targets and high-explosive rounds are effective against soft ground targets and aircraft.
