obious Posted 22 hours ago Posted 22 hours ago I’ve been spending a lot of time in the CH47 recently and one thing that has stood out is how good the physics of the sling load cables is (at least when connected to a heavy object). Why can’t we have that for the SC’s arresting wires?

If you have an iPhone, try CarrierLandingHD and you’ll see exactly what I’m talking about. Don’t you think the wire physics is a little lacking in the way it pays out and just generally behaves when an aircraft’s hook is attached to it?

And comparing DCS to some random smartphone sim tells us nothing of consequence. And you haven't answered my question: what do you consider to be incorrect regarding the arresting wires. Incorrect, that is, in comparison to how the real-world arrestor cables behave, which is the only thing that matters.
