Richrach Posted June 23, 2023 Posted June 23, 2023 Ejections for aircraft hit by anti-aircraft or missiles is almost instant in the game. This is not realistic at all. It takes time to recognize an aircraft is damaged beyond saving and make the decision to eject. A pilot will instinctively stay with an aircraft and try to save it as his (or her) initial reaction. Ejecting equates to failure in the mind of a military pilot, and is the last resort after the last resort. U.S. Navy manuals list a 1.2 second delay from the time the decision to eject is made and actually actuating the seat. This does not include the time leading up to that decision. A 3-5 second delay would be far more realistic in DTS for ejections from jet aircraft operated by the sim. - Richrach 4
