GAZ NZ Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Hi All I have had two vehicles killed now by javs in forests - they came down from above thru the trees canopy I was quite deep in the forest. Is this expected of Javs? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanir Ausf B Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 (edited) Trees do offer some protection against Javelins. I ran a test during development that showed Javelins hitting vehicles in trees about half the time. I don't know if this is too high or not. It is higher than the TOW2B. The one aspect that is not realistic is the Javelin using it's diving top attack mode through the canopy. Javs firing at targets under tree cover should be forced to use direct attack mode. This is not presently modeled in the game although it has been requested. Edited February 25, 2015 by Vanir Ausf B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAZ NZ Posted February 25, 2015 Author Share Posted February 25, 2015 Yep I would have thought a javs chances of getting thru as being low 10-15% - depends on the thickness of the canopy and type of tree I read your comments in the other post re the ATGM being fired into trees Quite interesting Cheers for your help 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
