Arma 3 tanks autoloader. No loader position.

Recommended Posts

Do all of the Arma 3 tanks have autoloaders? There seems to be no tank with a separate loader role, they all have the gunner only. So the gunner has to load the gun and aim/fire it as well? Why not a loader as well, like a real tank, i.e the Abrams. And why can we not use TAB to lase the target like in ACE3? That would make acquiring and engaging a target much faster, just like in real life.

This is an example of the real-life use of the laser rangefinder and loader position in a real tank:

Should Arma have this too? Does VBS3 even have this?

Yes.

Yes.

Because from a gameplay perspective it wouldn't exactly be the most exciting job.

And why can we not use TAB to lase the target like in ACE3? That would make acquiring and engaging a target much faster, just like in real life.

Because thats what mods are for.

Should Arma have this too?

No, because all it would amount to is a fourth seat serving little to no purpose.

Does VBS3 even have this?

Probably.

Try "T". Works fine for me.

VBS3 supports manual loading for the Abrams series, click the Simulation Settings link for more info.
