tadzhiks 1 Posted July 26, 2012 Unlike the Apache in AH-1Z pilot has no HUD, so where is the aiming point supposed to be for hydras and cannon? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ringosis 10 Posted July 28, 2012 Myke;2195090']The AH-1Z is a two-seater. The aiming point is in the gunners view. The pilot should still have a crosshair, regardless of there being a gunner, the gunner shouldn't even be firing the rockets. Most attack helicopters the AH-1Z and the Apache included (in most cases) have the rocket pods set up to fire from the pilots position, the gunner deals with the cannon and missiles. The idea being that it's a little pointless for the gunner to have fire control over the rockets when he can't aim them, the chopper needs to be physically turned and pitched to aim so it makes more sense for the pilot to decides when to release.
