BigNewy in my opinion this is NOT A BUG. The Bofors gun is on a trailer, with the gun facing backwards away from the tow vehicle.

This means that in the ME, the gun is pointing the opposite way from the directional arrow.

But this makes sense, because the bofors is a towed unit. Forwards, is towards the tow, not the gun.

Here is an image showing the gun in the ME. Note that the Bofors is set to orientation towards the NORTH, towards the water.

 

Now, in 3D mode, you can see the BOFORS GUN is pointing south. But the "front" of the unit is the tow, not the gun. The tow is pointed north, correctly.

 

If we add a vehicle towing , it makes more sense.

Thanks,

 

yes I would agree this is not a bug.
