As far as I know, that’s already a feature that gaijin added when they added the increased wind noise for open cockpits. It’s still possible too rip the cockpit off, but you’ll need to either be in the right plane, or in a catapult launched plane.
What effects will a pilot have if he flies on supersonic without a canopy? Not counting high altitude where oxygen mask is needed (duh) and can human beings survive sonic boom in the cockpit without issues?
This involves an ejection, but first hand account of human body exposed to supersonic speeds and rapid decceleration
NOT graphic, just interview. However, it does go into the emotional consequences of skirting death.

1:35 canopy cracks, noise increases (jet but rather slow flying)
to get rid of exploiting flying with canopy open or ripped off without consequences like turbulences problems with maneuvring more data is needed
some aerodynamics simulation of plane w/o canopy etc changes to flight model
emergency jettison should be added
for now ripping off canopy has more advantage (view)than causing problems - didnt notice any
So, i would suggest that when flying over 300km/h it would shake and blur the view plus the sounds caused by the wind would multiply. and when flying over 450km/h i would darken the view like a blackout. and if the player climbed to an altitude of 5 km, he would die after 30 seconds.
like that no one will fly with the cockpit open if they don’t have to.
And those who fly normaly, with closed conopy, dont have to be afraid.
In 1988, our test pilot Keith Hartley flew at 500 knots in a Tornado aircraft with the canopy off, testing the emergency escape procedures of the jet;
dont need imagined values if there are some documented
So tell me the hight, the speed. You cant just pin some pictures you find. This plane travell speed is about 270km/h and also got a wind shield in front. You can always find something special.
Just a few things you didn’t mention, the cockpit of this plane was modified to withstand the wind currents so that nothing would break. the windshield was also reinforced, and the pilot wore a special suit that made him completely stronger so that he could operate the plane even under these conditions.
It was an experiment that was not used in normal conditions.
In reality, the pilot immediately presses the last-ditch button and the plane will level itself and slow down to a safe speed.
Because if, as you think, speed didn’t matter, they could still continue at the speed they were flying at until then and not get bother by anything.

seems u dig more than me
good
have maybe full report bout this tornado? su driver seem also wears more protective gear
speed matters, aerodynamics too but for bugreport u need sources how exactly it affects flight performance irl
need more data preferably primary sources, reports gopro footage etc to consider bug report
about so called “canopu exploit”
cuz for now if it dont affect plane flighy performance ingame, is possible to do players will use it like a feature because they can and for benefit
But it like not blackout by overG. Just a error in the game. And because players dont face it in realistic battles, gajin dont care. Someone has to make an suggestion so it gets somewhere, I hardly beleve someon would read this discussen.
What about that quote? Can you tell us?
You linked a scientific paper, claimed you’ve surmized its contents and when I checked your statements made no sense in light of what I’d read and quoted myself.
Can you please do the same? Quote that work you linked to alleviate my concerns about what its URL suggests?
I’m not even on side of canopy open or closed - I open it when I’m landing if able because you opened canopy to land with those planes IRL - otherwise I leave it closed, I’m more interested in seeing what pages of the work cited talk about all those things that I had found myself unable to discover.

You don’t know that. They’re well above the clouds and are likely at cruise speed which will be near 400kph.
My bad, it is P47D witch has cruseing speed around 560km/h. But as I showed, its inrellevant to have opend cockpit in that speed.
u need data for that and a load of digging and fact checking to make a suggestion
papers of sound recordings in B-737 are rather irrelevant just like cabriolet in wind tunnel
didnt do any serious digging yet, just get interested in topic

And in-game you can’t hear planes around you, only when they pass VERY close to you.
And going back to this:
Here is a Heinkel 112. It obviously has an open canopy by design.
Here’s another, similar to the in-game V5.
These aircraft - with their open canopies - reached top speeds in the high-400 kph range and had a ceiling of ~8000m. Dive speeds were also tested, and it was limited to ~650kph.
None of the effects you described happened, otherwise it would have quickly been deemed unsuitable like the Fw 159 and Ar 80 were.

https://apps.dtic.mil/sti/tr/pdf/ADA801370.pdf some cockpit pressure change data for some props thay were tested with canopy open and closed in flight
semi relevant imho
all the planes you mentioned had a cabin. FW 159 had a cabin, He 112 had a cabin too, only in that photo it is open and since it was tilted to the right side you can’t see it.
The Ar 80 didn’t have a cabin, but the maximum speed of this machine is only 350km/h. The cruising speed was much lower, maybe even 220km/h, the cruising altitude was 2700m above sea level.
He 112 V-5 and A-0 have open cockpits.
C 200 has an open cockpit.
You give examples of aircraft that were designed to fly without a cabin, these aircraft had a stronger and larger front shield to withstand the wind and break it up.
You say that we are not talking about the first and second world wars and now you are bringing it up.
What you are saying sounds as the F-16 can fly supersonic without a cabin and would be completely fine.
If that is the case, find me when the F15 just opened the cabin during flight so that the pilot could have a better view.
