(If this has been suggested before, dont be hating and calling me stupid, i looked for it and didnt see it, just close down the thread........or lets talk about this thread)

when it comes to dropping LGBs from the CAS aircraft its easy right?

Laser Designation is easy enough correct??
YouTube - Project Reality Laser Target Designation Tutorial

and the Guided Ordinance drop seems as easy as 1.2....drop
(step 3 is to pull back or you will hit the ground)

but when flying the (newly RED HUD) SU-25 "Crow" or either one of the jets on Quinling, it is hard to see with the light HUDs. I suggest that a BEEEEEEEP something like the lock on the air to air missiles be placed in the HUD with a small device flashing so the pilot knows that he has lock with the laser designator or designation(by commander).

Or, if that isnt possible
(im sure it is since you guys could pull off a #9 weapon for squad leaders)
at least make the LGB lock on alot louder so that I dont have to turn up my volume so loud that my ears hurt just listening for an "Im locked on" to happen. Then reach back over across my joystick to turn my volume back down.
Just some type of thing that makes it easier for pilots to see that they have the LGB locked up.

Also, Before, the Iraqi flag on the tail of the Crow(NATO named "FrogFoot") with the Iraqi Airforce symbol and such, but since that didnt make sense since the fighting is in KASHAN, IRAN. The flag was switched to the generic MEC air force symbol, but I suggest to put what other country??? Irans flag on the Crow.

thank you.
once again,

Cool, I had no idea you could stick it to vehicles.

For the HUD issue, it has been addressed, I don't know the specifics, but rest assured it's better.

lasering needs to be a tad bit more smoother, maybe 30 seconds the tank is lazed? sometimes it is hard to get the tank on the first run.

Thats why preferably you are a squadleader and putting a marker on the target or close to him, when the plane (prefarably guy in your team or on teamspeak with you)is close you are lasing the target, target is aquired, bombs released, target destroyed.

If you are not a SL but Spec Ops you first say via "T" Lazing targer, that will give the plane some time to possition himself on a target that you will lase very soon.

Iran isn't in the MEC. It just would not happen.
