A-20 Bombsight

[Legioneod]

Any chance we could have the A-20 bombsight in imperial units? I know the bombsight gives you all the info already but I prefer to go off of the cockpit settings and it's easier for me to understand what I'm doing when it's in imperial units.

I think the aircraft is modelled to follow the US cockpit/Russian sight set up of the original

I would have thought it should be in Imperial. They should get round to doing it at some point.

That's why I say it should be imperial. US cockpits are in imperial units.

Cockpit gauges are in imperial, the virtual bombsight is in metric.

US lend lease but fitted with a Russian sight as I understand it. So I'm guessing that's how it was and either or the pilot or nav had to have a good mind for maths (or math as I think you'd say)

Hence I wish we had the G model with all the guns in the nose.   Just dispense with the bomb sight altogether and do it low level, like a boss.

 

That's how I use the A20 currently.   Low level intruder.   We don't need no stinkink bomb sights...

Regardless of what the VVS used we will need imperial for later theaters.
