@_David_Bowie Maybe you can give a comment? As far as I remember, you were the one who talked about what principles apply to determining the zoom of helicopter sights.
Will you be able to suggest the information that I asked above and make your comment on this topic, please
Magnification uses only the value of the daytime sight, value from Thermal/NVDs are not considered.
Do note that this was about to change this patch but was so far held back so I wouldn’t rely on it that match
Thanks, sir. Can you also comment on the choice of quality of thermal imaging cameras. Is the quality of the cockpit display really an advantage if it is known?
I did a report with the info from this thread and all my sources
https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/dhVGrPlRONxv
I.e. I made enough arguments and the topic wasn’t even moved to acknowledged status?
Is he only expressing his opinion or what?
“I just want the USSR to be without thermal imaging.”
its probably dev words i guess
In that case, he should move the report to acknowledged status to confirm that he agrees with the arguments and there are enough of them, but the developers just don’t want to
So the developers opinion - they don’t want to add thermal imager for su-39 and su-25t. Apparently the ussr should not be able to fly at all in half of the matches when the weather is bad.
Never played the SU39 or probably will, but I have to say, I have yet to come across a post I had more enjoyment reading.
Great job and effort :).
So in effect they recognized that the facts I described allow for adding thermal imaging to the game, but they just don’t want to
Thank you. My biggest disappointment is that when I called the Sukhoi OKB museum to come to them I was refused, saying that they only accept special guests. It’s as if they don’t care about ordinary people at all.
I asked for mail to ask a question, but even that was refused. They basically don’t care about their history.
I created a suggestion on the Ru forum, where I listed the airplanes with thermal imagers. Please vote. It’s the least I can do.
This is one of the best and most thorough posts I’ve seen on a niche topic on this forum. I would love to see this added to the outstanding and interesting Su-39. Have there been any more developments with this? Thanks for your efforts either way!
Wow that’s great research
Great post, hopefully this gets forwarded to developers
Already has. The answer was “we don’t want to add it”.
Only west can have thermals I guess, Su-39 is unusable in fog maps or low light
They gave ridiculous a ridiculous reason why it can’t be added, hopefully they still do include it on the aircraft at some point.
