funny, but yes that film is annoying on the windscreen. 

Is there a bug report for that? I've never heard about floor mops being recommended for canopy cleaning 🙂

Joking aside, this is actually a big problem in VR. The state of the canopy glass on the F-5 really makes dogfighting and general target spotting even harder than it already is.

Kit: i9 10900k, Rog Strix RTX 4090, Asus Rog strix Z490 Mobo, 64 GB, Varjo Aero HMD running Open VR

       Thrustmaster Warthog Hotas, Thrustmaster Pendular rudder peddles

MODS: Pretty much all of them

Is the wind screen burried in the coded 3D model? It was so easy to mod in Lock On times...

I recommend a high-res cockpit mod on here - It has a clear canopy. Yeah, this is insufferable in VR.

FYI, you can take the canopy DDS file and use it with any mod or stock cockpit textures.

Why would it be a problem in VR? It's only a problem if you use zoom to cheat. 😉

You want to try flying a real aircraft - the canopy isn't any better IRL.

The JF-17 is not better than the F-16; it's different. It's how you fly that counts.
