Question about Fire Warning

[icemaker]

I'm suprised that in the real A-10C the pilot has just a visual warning on an onboard fire.

I think it's a major alert which need an imediate action.

All other planes have audio warnings on major plane faults, why the A-10 Don't?

Because that’s how the engineers designed it lol. Don’t think anyone here can tell you exactly why.

I know why... A-10C never takes fire...

In the previous version of the A10C - there was an audible warning to go along with the engine fire visual indication. Wondering if this is part of the "missing" tones that they have already discussed in previous posts - and whether or not some will return (along with Bitchin' Betty). I'm absolutely ok without them to be fair, as it is impossible to not see the master caution flashing (or even the fire pull handle illuminations).

From what I understand, the audible warning is supposed to just be for the landing gear and nothing else. In the A-10C I Warthog we had, it sounded for everything, which was incorrect. ED corrected it for both the Warthog and Tank Killer when it released last month.

Copy that, well sounds like the peace and quiet will remain for me while flying the Hog :pilotfly:

Hah, not really. At least in DCS I had more engine fires (due to battle damage) than I can count! :music_whistling:

You fly too low mate ;)

You fly too low mate ;)

 

That's why I'm flying the A-10 ;)

No other aircraft has brought me back to base after an engine fire so often as the A-10 did :)

Low and slow that's why we love the A-10!!
