Is it possible to play the position of the nose gunner of the SB-2? Why was this left out?

Jolly posted the answer to this on the SB-2 cockpit download thread:

"Please Note there is no front gunner position due to axis problem (Ai control only) + the glass canopy sliding back & forth animation for top turret is not visable with this mod for the SB-2M-100A ...we thought the position would be better than none at all"


If you look at the front position it is fairly unique. Both guns traverse the vertical through fixed slots in the front perspex. They have only limited rotational travel around a hinge point - one for each separate gun. This is not a turret, just a gun position in which the guns move up and down and from side to side like the arms of a parallelogram. Gunner viewpoint might be hard to arrange.
