AH-9 Pawnee has no way of aiming when in hardcore or expert mode.
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

When the difficulty is set on high or game parameters are chosen that gets rid of the cross hairs etc, the AH-9 Pawnee has no way of aim its guns and rockets. This is terrible for game play and support. A small black dot with a circle would suffice on the wind screen. Anyway to actually aim the guns or rockets.

I tried today to be really accurate without the crosshairs. Not possible, as you have no landmark on the windscreen to begin aiming. BIS please added some kind of grease pencil dot with circle to the pawnee, so we can aim without crosshairs.

This still hasn't been resolved.

The pilot looks on, on a windshield paste chewing gum, or a marker draw a cross? How do you think, control of this weapon is exercised?
