New aircraft repair animation?

[recoil17]

Tonight at Nellis I requested an aircraft repair and after a countdown the A-10C was jacked up into the air, some panels opened up, repairs made and lowered back to the ground.

 

Is this new in 2.0? I only did one repair in 1.5 and I don't remember that happening.

 

Hard to see in the picture but it's fully suspended in the air

It did that in 1.5 and I even believe it did that in 1.2

that is correct, it has existed for quite a while, i believe it was present in the standalone DCS: A-10C also if i remember correctly.

Does it do that for all planes or only A-10C?

[Ripcord03]

I can't attest to other planes too much, but none of the WWII plane's have panels that open during repair, but i believe the F86F does, and the KA-50 might, its been a while since i have flown either of those 2 modules and repaired though.

It's still the same animation.

 

BUT it would be great to have more detailled ground animations, e.g. people mounting weapons when rearming, crew / repair truck is coming to the plane during we wait the 120 seconds...

 

When you eject, you can walk around, so we have the ground/walking animations. Would be great if you could enter another plane or vehicle (if combined arms module is active). Or you leave the briefing room and walk to your plane. Or you just leave and enter the plane with nice pilot animations like star citizen...
