is it really that bad? I mean heck, I can't even see sideways! surely they wouldn't restrict the view of the pilot

I use 3rd Person because its like looking out of a submarine using 1st person

Atleast sideways it's to disrupted,

The one in ArmA is a sheer travesty of the capabilities

of the real HOKUM (just like most of the other vehicles).

If they'd built the KA-50 in about 1950 then the ArmA one

would probably be a realistic representation of it.

Yeah the cockpit looks pretty accurate in terms off visibility/ Here's a few vids;

And here's what a detailed model looks like

jeez thats horrible. I watched the making of the new US armed rec heli (can't remember name) and one of the biggest things that had to keep in mind was visibility for the pilot - how are you supposed to keep 'all round combat awareness' when you can only look straight! lol....never mind the soldier standing 10ft away on your left with an RPG or AT4 or something!

ahh well....

Well nowadays your "all round combat awareness" comes from

your other squadron members flying in formation with you and

from the extensive battery of avionics, target and threat

detection, countermeasures and survivability systems. Almost

none of this is modelled in ArmA, though, so it's little wonder

that it seems less than impressive.

Still, though, if you can set the view distance to 3.5 km's or so, you can use that neato guncam view and launch missiles at targets over a km away... those hit at least 30 percent of the time at that range!

anybody know a script that can remove the cockpit

That's not really possible by scripting (unless with some ugly hacking), you'd have to modify the model or the textures for that.
