Issue: Helicopters firing air-to-air missiles (tested with AH-64E, AH-1Z, KA-52M, among others) in air combat do not visually simulate the fired missiles. Although missiles like AIM-9M and IGLA-V are launched at incoming enemy aircraft, the missiles themselves remain invisible, have no effect, and are not calculated by the game's engine.
Observations:
- The missiles are recorded under LOSSES & EXPENDITURES as being fired.
- Missiles are deducted from the loadout.
- A firing sound is audible upon launch.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Engage in air combat using helicopters (e.g., AH-64E, AH-1Z, KA-52M).
- Fire air-to-air missiles (e.g., AIM-9M, IGLA-V) at enemy aircraft.
- Observe the absence of missile simulation post-launch.
