Feedback, NormalPublic

Description

the current in game model huey aught to have a higher resolution cockpit panels. War thunders UH-1 cockpit is more detailed.

Also there are other tweaks and or additions to model that aught to be added to more accurately represent a 1980s era model. the Front cockpit panel instead of being dark grey should be black. IT was era of Night vision compatible cockpits.

The exterior 3d model only has a partial Infrared suppression system modelled. IT has the exhaust cone to divert heat but not the engine blocking panels installed. The exterior model also lacks wire strike protection system.

How the 3d exterior model looks in reforger atm.

IT should also be noted that the rotors since 1980 standard are supposed to be entirely black. The reforger main rotors and anti torque rotors are black but have tips painted yellow. IT should be entirely black in this timeframe

TO further bolster case for black cockpit panels and wire strike protection system, this is a footage from 1984 training sqaudron with student pilots. If Uh1H trainer had NVG compatible cockpits then this certainly would of the been standard by 1989, in active duty units that still was operating UH1H's.

It should also be noted that ability to roll the heli in the manner players are able to do, is extremely unrealistic and should be removed.
