DCS main gunning, they have lazer range finders to help with lead... https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QbtPL27O7e8 (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QbtPL27O7e8)
Edit: the part mentioned is at the end

But isn't that what those tanks have IRL

There, the GV game is a modern version of ours, same views

I like their tank on fire effect after one has been hit.

Definitely!
It'd be cool to see them brew up in Aces, and not just the turret flip (which is, in and of itself, extremely cool too)

I would like to see Sub's , lol .

If we had hovering helicopters, we might have that in AH

Wow. That must have been in easy easy new player mode. It didn't seem to have ANY challenge what-so-ever.

Come on, those AI tanks were getting SO close.

Noticed gunner still had to induce range. On M-1 Tank and I also believe the T-90 the ballistics computer induces lead of target based on distance and speed based on tracking of target.
Most of today s tanks have fire control systems that take into consideration, barometric pressure, temperature, barrel ware and barrel droop. and wind speed. It also has information placed in the computer for the lot of ammo based on test firing of that production ammo. Basically if all information for the ammo lot, and up to date barometric pressure information is feed to the computer it just requires lazing the target and keeping the reticle centered on the target. The computer automatically induces super elevation and lead.

Yeppers, as long as you remember to 'dump the lead' from traversing to the the target.

I didn't use the plane's icon range for this shot. I ranged my gun by blowing up the fuel tanks that I knew were close to the runway. It's hard to see the plane/icon but it flies in to land from the right. Roughly 1.6K, then I used Kentucky windage to calculate lead.

How difficult do you think it is to shoot a modern tank gun? Even Richard Hammond managed to hit 3 out of 4 on the first shot in an M1 Abrams...

destroyed and not destroyed AFVs.

Shooting an HE round that explodes under a plane is not main gunning them. To "main gun" them, you need to hit the plane with the round itself.

Then we should just tell these idiots who get main gunned to stop strafing tanks at low angles of attack like imbeciles.

Congratulations, you've managed to find a way to kill those heinous pilots that have the audacity to fly a plane in Aces High without actually flying a plane yourself. Maybe we could reduce the icon range that aircraft see the tanks so you are harder to find without reducing the GV's ability to see them......oh, wait.............

I haven't really gv'd since coming back. I think it's more fun to bomb a gv from the air than gun a plane from a gv.

Eventually they will learn to do so, but until they do, it provides for some good fun and laughs for the tankers who are able to to main gun them.

even in the -70s, western world had range laser and computer aided lead for main cannon.
One Swedish example is the IKV91 light tank destroyer.

I main-gunned a spitfire last night, 1000 yds-90 degree deflection shot, lucky perhaps but it was awesome :rock
