"If there is no elevation or elevation angle is near 0% zeroed weapon hits right in crosshairs."

AD2001, it is currently like this: if you'll place shooter and target both on the runway in the 1,1 km disstance - you'll hit the target having your CH on him.

But if you'll place shooter near 3 towers and target on the Camp Rogain on the 900 m disstance and elevation will be as small as 0.64 degrees - your bullet will drop too soon.
