Shouldnt all jets have a count on how many flares it has left on the HUD? It kinda helps when im going in for a bombing run against an AA and i wanna deploy flares prior to firing and i realize, sadly, that im just blowing puff of air for flares instead, getting myself shot down. :d uh:
But aside of that all jets do have a count on flares i think, maybe aside from the Russian jets... But i do know the A10 does have it for sure.

No downside, I don't see why not. Engine limitations perhaps? If not, go for it. Would be another realistic and useful indicator.

I agree completely.

It should be an easy one to put in as well.

I reckon this would definitely be a good idea.


Also for attack helicopters and transport helicopters.

Yeah, nice idea. You don't want to enter a hot zone and see you run of of flares after the 1st one ;)

Yea, I think everything needs indicators. In AIX mod, for tanks theres a picture of a shell, and the picture fills to show reload time. and when the picture is complete, that means its ready to fire again. And when you hit a tank with your main cannon, it says target hit. Sorry for off topic, just been playing AIX lately, they have alot of good ideas, :)
