Tiramisu Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 It looks like all guns and cannons in DCS are using tracer ammunition, which makes things much easier not only for the shooter but also for the target. So I am often able to evade those bullets when I see them them comming. Additionally in DCS you can tell which type of unit is shooting at you from the color of the rounds (e.g. white rounds for aircraft, red rounds for infantry and green rounds for tanks). Is this something you can also expect in real life military? I do appreciate visible projectiles sometimes, but on the other hand it might not be very realistic.

DirtySanchez Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 In the real world, it is possible to identify the caliber of AAA shooting at you based on a number of characteristics including tracer color, the number of tracers in a salvo, and the burst/smoke color. 23mm is distinguishable from 57mm which is distinguishable from 85 or 100mm.
