Tiger-II Posted June 17, 2020 Posted June 17, 2020 Hi, Do the NVG external lights work? I tried them but I see nothing?

I wondered if they actually worked in this mode? It doesn't matter if I look at my own jet or MP.

Tiger-II Posted June 18, 2020 Author Posted June 18, 2020 I tried this in the latest OB, and setting the switch to NVG just causes the normal lights to illuminate.

Tiger-II Posted June 19, 2020 Author Posted June 19, 2020 Maybe they’re so that enemies can’t see the lights with NVG? There's nothing special about them except the fact they require NVG to see. If the enemy has NVG, they will see them too (the lights are IR). What it does do is prevent most ground troops/hostile civilians/etc. from visually acquiring the aircraft.
