About that gunsight.

Will SF ever be able to feature manually depressable gunsights, and gyro-stabilised sights?

The LCOS gunsights work properly in the game. The F-4B/C and A-4 do not have LCOS sights....the other aircraft do, but you need to be in A2A gun mode for the sight to work. In the F-4E, if you have both AIM-7s and 9s loaded, you will need to get rid of the AIM-9s before the sight will switch into A2A gun mode (this is a bug).

 

Except for the A-4 and F-100, all gunsights depress 50 mils in A2G mode (all weapons).

 

SimHQ has two articles giving specific info on how to use the gunsights, radar, and weapons for both A2A and A2G.

Oh, I know that the AG mode depresses it, but I know the actual gunsight allowed for manual depression.

 

Maybe its cuz I haven't played for a while, but I don't remember the sights properly wobbling around the glass in the aircraft.

 

But I do want to see manually depressable sights, and also manually adjustable wingspan adjustment. I remember even the F-86 had both these features, and later model Sabre's even had a ranging radar that auto adjusted the gunsight for proper lead.
