I would like to suggest an improvement to the aircraft HUD.
Currently, it can be difficult to determine which bomb will be released next and on which side of the aircraft bombs are still available. This becomes especially challenging after dropping one or more bombs, as pilots need to know whether a bomb is still attached to the left wing, center pylon, or right wing.
simple example: I dropped 1 of 2 bombs with P-51D-5. But which one? I can’t see it on the plane with 3rd person (like on WT), the HUD doesn’t show it and I can’t remember it on all planes (starting to get a little bit old)
suggestions:
Adding a bomb status indicator to the lower-left section of the HUD would greatly improve situational awareness. Such an indicator could visually show the remaining bombs and their mounting positions. This would make targeting enemy vehicles easier, as pilots would immediately know where the remaining bomb is located and could adjust their attack approach accordingly.
example:
Expand the bomb release system so that it functions like the one in War Thunder. There, players can assign key bindings that allow them to choose exactly which bomb to release—whether from the left wing, center pylon, or right wing. This provides greater control over aircraft balance, weapon management, and attack precision.
example:
From my point of view these suggestions would improve usability and make ground attack operations more intuitive and effective.
