    AAA gunnery queries

    Hi All,

    My first post so apologies if this is not the right place.

    I have a few queries/observations about jumping into AAA artillery (which I tend to do quite often after being killed in the air ;o)

    1 - Is it possible to take control of ship mounted AAA guns? I can't see a way of doing this but it would be interesting to do in single mission or multi player.

    2 - On the Flak 88 there is no sighting mechanism... should there be?

    3 - On the Zwillinssockel 36 and 2cm Flak 30 there are no sights ... should there be ? (though it is easy enough to aim via the tracer stream)

    4 - On the 4cm Flak 28 there is a sight, but it appears to be misaligned. The aiming point appears to be where the sight joins the mounting bar (see pic)
    4cm Flak 28 aiming.jpg

    Any info would be useful.

    Cheers

    We have not fully activated AAA for player use.

    Probably the best is the Bofors/40mm flak.

    You can place that on a Tanker and man it.
