My hope is that as ED continues to flesh out the Naval aspect of DCS, Razbam will jump on the bandwagon and alter the AV8B's AWLS to represent its RL counterpart. I can understand the reasoning behind adapting it for land based use, but for me, one of the major draws to DCS is attempting to replicate RL procedures; it seems a bit "off" to leave the aircraft without a fundamental capability such as this.
Heck I'd even be happy with the choice of toggling it in the menu (similar to the INS) so players can use it they way they'd like to play. Obviously this is easier said than done, and I don't know much about the coding required to implement something like this, but maybe it's possible to have either-or.
Just my 2c.
