Just received the Mail from ROF announcing the new weapons mod. I'm interested in the RE8 Upper wing Lewis, is possible to reload them? And If yes, will the pilot visibly lower the gun and change the gun cartridge? Will the same happen now on the SE5?

Thanks.

Hi there,
the weapon mods have not been released yet, thus the only information available are on that mail, on the official ROF website and their forum.

Someone mentioned a more realistic reloading cycle, but to which point it's still unknown.

Hope I helped.

It appears that it will be possible to use the foster mount and aim the gun upward (reloading position). But, it is true - we don't officially know if reloading will be modelled, how long it will take - or if one will have to fly level to do it (instead of reloading while pulling g's and firing the vickers...)
