Stratos Posted October 24, 2020 Posted October 24, 2020 In DCS we have planes that span several decades of use, and that saw service for long periods of time, the helmets used during those times changed more often than the planes they flew. I want to request the hability to select different pilot helmets 3d as an option, just like we load or unload the armor on the Mi-8 or the hardpoints of the Huey. One clear example is the P-51 Mustang, that was used in Korea as the F-51. In the Korean war, the Mustang pilots used the same helmet as in the F-86 Sabre, the same helmet and o2 mask we currently have in our F-86 Sabre. Would be amazing to have such an option. Another example is the F-5 Tiger, introduced in the 60's the helmet to be used was the HGU-2. Currently we have a modern helmet as used in the aggresor squadrons. To represent countries like Iran (IRAN is in our Persian Gulf map), we would need the option to select the HGU-2. Thanks. I don't understand anything in russian except Davai Davai!

Stratos Posted October 24, 2020 Author Posted October 24, 2020 BTW, the HGU-2 needed for the F-5 Tiger is also already in the game. Front pilot helmet of the MB339 mod... I don't understand anything in russian except Davai Davai!
Stratos Posted October 24, 2020 Author Posted October 24, 2020 This is a HGU-33/P not HGU-2 Sorry then, I'm not an expert. Anyway better than the modern one we have now. I don't understand anything in russian except Davai Davai!
