This is strictly for gimballed weapons:



Did nobody every wonder why the firing arc for gimballed weapons below an Anaconda or FDL is sooo good, especially upwards? Simple answer: They just shoot through your ship. In this video you see a comparison between Anaconda, FDL and Corvette (large HP in that case), where I shoot at a nav-beacon 500m from me, and I pitch down my nose as much as I can to still hit it:

Pretty ridiculous if you ask me... And raises some questions:



- Why wasnt this mentioned more often? Where are the "realism"-people? I feel this might be an example of keeping quiet about bugs as long as they profit yourself.



- What would many people think about their FDL if the firing arc of gimballed huge weapons suddenly was as bad as the C3 on the Corvette?



- Where would that put the Corvette, which is always bashed for the C3 HP positions, if the other ships were not cheating?



- Is FDev gonna do anything about it?
