« on: January 04, 2024, 07:03:05 PM »

The Aero L-159 G Kestrel has no gunsight .
However , in external view , we can see a HUD

Same issue for Aero L-159 L Petrel .

A well-known problem. Best you can do is use the L-39C or ZA, or the L-159A, which all have sights. However the L-159A jerks around the sky when you use the cannon.

In my estimation, too many planes "jerk around the sky" to an unrealistic degree when firing various guns or cannon.   :P

Absolutely, Glenn. Too much anecdotal evidence and not enough attention paid to physics - particularly vis-a-vis the mass of an aircraft compared to the mass of a bullet...

The world is crumbling, a missing piece of glass.
