Option to pre-strain the pilot before pulling high G loads

[Cmptohocah]

Real life pilots can pre-strain before pulling G loads, which allows them better tolerance then if they just re-actively responded to increasing normal load.

Would it make sense to assign a button that would initiate fore-mentioned behavior in DCS?

For example (G-load numbers are arbitrary): one pre-strains and the G-LOC is at 9G, one doesn't and G-LOC happens at 7G.

This would really separate men from boys, IMHO.

An interesting point. Wouldn't it be logical to assume that all pilots, as part of their training, learn about AGSM, train for it, and therefore they all employ it before a hi-g maneuver? After all, I believe that part of the training is that a pilot should be so used to AGSM that they do not expend conscious thought to initiate, and maintain it. So why assign a button for something RL pilots would do without thinking about?

I'd leave it out. The focus of the simulation should be the plane in my opinion. Trying to replicate human factors with poor unintuitive controls (I don't regulate any part of myself with button presses) is a good way to ruin immersion and realism in my opinion. I get where you're coming from, but we can't simulate this properly with current technology, and I think trying to force it into the sim will only make things worse.

this already exists. you just have to do it yourself in-game rather than mashing a button.

I was not aware. How does one perform this?

Just make a few turns with increasing G-Load. 2G, 3G, 4G, and so on

Ah I see. This is not what I was talking about.
