    New A29 version is available with working FLIR that has tracking, only lasing is needed now.
    Edit: new cockpit textures and prop animation are in this new version too, it has better visibility too since the cockpit has had changed geometry too.

      I downloaded "latest version" according to website, it has no new cockpit or FLIR. Dissappointed.

    When in the RAMC I was tasked to get water samples from a river that was a border between Honduras and Guatemala, there were reports of tampering with the water supply. I and a pilot flew tactically in a Gazelle to a persons field beside the river, the owner took me to the middle of the river to collect some samples and then we flew back to our base. It was quite exciting.

    It would be interesting to see how the Super Tucano does against P-51s and Spitfires. As you mentioned, they have similar specifications.

      @@pierrelahaie6359 the super tucano M3 shoots so much faster it's like having 4-6 M2 from a p51, but since the RPM is faster your have a higher chance to hit and cause more damage, so don't bother comparing the number of them cause it's useless when you have guns that fire at 400 rpm compared to 1200 rpm
