Real LAV25 Sight Reticle

Hotrod525 · 12-08-2009, 08:38 PM

Hi, i was playing whit the Thermal sight of a LAV25 [since i'm a Army Crewman' ], and when i look trought the optic is did realise that the reticle is actualy like the one used on Warrior/Scimitar, not the standart one of BF2V.

I will take a picture of it and bring it on topic' just to show you.

Advening that, will the dev take it in consideration or i will just waste my time ?

lav25's have thermal optics?

EDIT: Ahhh you tried to trick me, you didn't say you were an army crewman when I originally wrote this post so I thought you were referring to the PR LAV-25.

Thats what I was asking. It has thermal vision? If that isn't the reticule, its probably low priority, and if theres a source where we can get reference to the real one, it'll probably be added if the LAV-25 is re-done.

Hate to reference another game here, but OFDR did get it right.

Hotrod, is Combined Arm's HUD any better?

Hotrod525 · 12-09-2009, 03:31 PM

huuum its seems that the US Marines use an other reticle, ill post a picture of what i see trought the optics.

And YEAH LAV25 have a Thermal Sight, just like ANY modern battle vehicle'

it look like this... Just a very quickly made draw' BTW its the same reticule for thermal and non-thermal sight..

Can you make an exact picture, or another drawing with the main crosshair centered, correct colours (or at least tags showing what each colour is) and an explanation of what each part/number is?

The thermal sight should be using the same reticle. The common optic is the DIM-36TH (M36) TAS, or the ITSS.

As for the reticle, image below shows it quite clearly.

Actualy the crosshair in the optic are "desalign" like the one i made, tomorow, ill be on LAV25 maintenance [ once again just as if I like to doing it all day long'...] ill bring my cam and take a picture.

Each number mean the bullet drop...

Machine gun drop, High Explosive drop, Armor percing drop, and Armor percing stabilized...

Anyway ill take it just for you

but I'm not yet qualify on M242 Bushmaster'
