I miss the old damaged cockpits

Why did they remove them they looked so good.

The bullet holes in the canopy and dirty glass made it genuinely feel like you survived combat, now you just get the oil texture if you’re lucky.

This is honestly up there with the flack texture for warthunder glow downs

I loved getting shot purely to see how my cockpit would look, ie look at the damaged dials, the holes in the glass and other stuff etc.

I love the cockpit damage in IL-2 BOX

My guess is it was more down to the fact that few people use 1st cockpits and or the textures were old. The issue is they forgot to replace them.
