Play Ka-50 Hokum Online

Ka-50 Hokum is a combat flight simulator released in 1995 for MS-DOS. Developed by Simis Limited and published by Virgin Interactive Entertainment, the game is a first-person vehicular combat simulator focused on helicopter operations. It is set in the maritime region of Indonesia.

The player assumes the role of a commander and pilot operating from a mobile base ship. This vessel serves as a headquarters and carries four distinct helicopter types: the Kamov Ka-50 Hokum for assault, the MIL Mi-8 Hip for assault and transport, the Westland Lynx for anti-ship missions and transport, and the Bell AH-1 Cobra for assault. Gameplay involves planning a schedule of missions based on intelligence gathered from prior reconnaissance flights. Players must select the helicopter most appropriate for each assigned task.

Missions encompass a variety of objectives, including intercepting pirate boats, escorting friendly ships through hostile waters, providing air support, transporting jungle commandos, rescuing downed pilots, and attacking ground targets. A key feature of the game structure is the ability to switch control back to the base ship during an ongoing mission to plan and initiate subsequent operations. This creates a cycle of reconnaissance, strategic planning, and tactical execution across different aircraft roles.
