First off thanks for the Q/A. And props (proper recognition, not 4 bladed) to Oleg & his team for making a wonderful flight sim.


For SA, I'm going to assume the new graphics will help out. Say 200 m I can tell the destroyed planes in a row from the others (they all look black until I get closer)



Any information on the padlocking system and improvements over IL-2's current system?

Also will there be customizable padlocking? Like only targest in FOV or assigning priority (such as 1. target firing on you 2. target on your six (if you look and see on there) 3. threat to wingman etc)

Currently I use a mouse for SA purposes (waiting for Track IR)


Will BOB SOW have a config screen for devices like Track IR? (Like IL-2 does for HOTAS?)


Also will snap / pan views have more wider viewing area / panoramic? I remember in MiG Alley I had my views set I could scan in 5 places (L R Sides, Up, L R back).



And the last question is for the SOW series in general.

With the enhanced graphics, will there be some sort of pilot customization (like looks / outfit) ? I know this is probably a distant feature compared to other more important ones.

I want to go for cigar like Pappy B, or Saint Christopher's medal. When additional releases, people could go Tuskegee airmen. I remember reading about WASPS and lady squadrons in Soviet side. (Read in some article in a magazine about French and Japanese using lady pilots, but haven't found anything else on that).
