I removed all the targeting boxes to make it more of a challenge - a red dot stuck on a MiG is an enemy for sure - but without that I am forced to vis ID it with TIR - which makes me hesitate until I know what I am firing at - and even then I still sometimes mis ID and fire at a friendly..much more interesting!
Yes the Recon photo approach - been using that for years - with the targetting box on you can see it through the floor of the cockpit so its very easy to judge when to dive in - I wanted a more Andy Bush approach to it all.
AAA is very difficult to target - but at night you can see the muzzle flashes clearer with DX10 and you can see smoke in the daytime - and if you cant see it use padlock.
