Late timing on the taking of this screenshot, but it looks pretty neat in real-time when your proximity shells go off next to the plane you're shooting at.

Good cod awmighty      It would appear to me that Kamikaze's may have about as much of a slim chance of reaching thier target as they did in real life.

Hey Pyro how about having M2 90s model for base defense after Ack is down. But you would have to manually set transmitters in rounds.

Torque, no you wouldn't need to set an altitude if they used the same VT fused rounds.  They did in real life.

VT fused Flack rounds have a small, cheapo radar inside them that radiates out to the side, about a 50 foot detection range.  Whenever it passes an object, it triggers the detonator.

The Army Anti-aircraft artillery batteries used them too in their 90mm flack guns.

U-boats would be fun, but unfortunately I doubt it.

HiTech and Pyro seem to not want to go the full combined arms sim route.  I would like them to.  If Aces High could be a WW-2 Online "light" I would be in heaven.  I don't like over-complicated games.

I'm more of a beer & pretzels stategy type.  I like my gear hardcore, just not the field of battle.
