Is it possible to decrease ground fire accuracy

[Gunfreak]

I see many fantastic mods, adding planes. Meteor missles, AMRAAM Ds, fancy radar.

But can you decrease ground fire accuracy? Everything fired from the ground be it 88mm flak to AKs have super accuracy. Would be nice if one could decrease it a bit.

Fully agree, I've not heard of F-18 shot down by T-72 machine guns... and it happends frequently...

Have you seen much variance based on the skill levels of the ground units? 

I still keep getting a 'golden bullet' from a sniper in a HIND when flying an F16, even when they're ROOKIES!!! It's INSANE how accurate they are with that cannon.

 Not really,  seems to be some very basic AI logic that affects all aspects of the game.(coding realistic accuracy seems to be very hard in any game)  not only in flight sims, but any shooter or what ever. 

I know of only one sim where the AI seems to have human like skills in accuracy and that's a designated ww2 sim.(not definitely not that one)

I don’t really notice any difference in awareness, time to engage or accuracy between levels honestly with ground units.

A mod dealing this would be great…..each time my AH64D wingman decides to go infight with a BTR or even infantry I‘m short of a heartattack

[Stratos]

Agree, such a mod would be fantastic!

It would be great if they could simply misjudge where to shoot, which is what real humans do.  At present, they seem to be able to perfectly predict where to shoot if you continue on the same trajectory.

Another issue is, guns without fire control systems should have reduced accuracy at the beginning. That would greatly increase the survivability and warn players that they're taking fire before it's too late. ATM it's hard to make counter insurgency scenarios because 4 or 5 insurgents are enough to make it impossible to fly over a village without getting shot down instantly. We need more realistic, excited, allahuakbar-yelling insurgents who just spray the sky and make you feel uncomfortable. Make the dispersion super high so it becomes impossible for them to hit a target beyond short range (~300m) unless they get lucky. (on rookie)
