Default Re: Unkillable aircraft!!!

Hi Mobhack
Actually Ive always been puzzled by the airstrike planes recce effect. Aside from possibly spotter planes there is no real life mechanism for a strike aircraft to send information on the enemies exact disposition to the relevant ground forces. A typoon may radio back to the ground FO after leaving the flak zone that he saw some vehicles at the edge of a wood, and the FO may just happen to be in touch with the relevant nearby coy commander but it is unlikely. And of course the game turns what is a pilots vague report of a fleeting glimpse at 500 mph into the exact position and type of units. It it would be much more relistic if strike aircraft had no spotting ability.
Best Regards Chuck.
