bertOC Posted September 6, 2021 Posted September 6, 2021 I think MANPADS should be listed similar to other IR thrads as a SR SAM, since i definitely want to engage them before some dudes with M4s or AKs. Hope this is possible in the future 1

Although I really hope they give him some personality soon and let him call out launches if he sees them, and respond to commands verbally so I don't have to read the text up in the right corner of my VR headset.

Well, In DCS they stand stupidly still with the manpads even after firing it (even when they can't reload anymore). Also you have superzoom. In RL, a person with a manpad can look like a civilian or even a sheperd with his flock, and 5 secons later, just when you take your eyes off him, he/she take the manpadas hidden under a blanket of behind one of his sheep and shoots you in the face. So as a compromise with RL, I would always treat any soldier as a potential manpad carrier until better animations and IA of enemy infantry is achieved some years from now. For me the better improvement would be for manpads soldier to not stay still, dropping the manpads after shooting, take cover, take his weapon... basically behave like a real soldier.... 1
