As I said in another post, CGI before the early 90s was generally limited to videos pre-generated for the movie like the Genesis Effect segment from the Star Trek movies.
A realistic war drama filmed on a shoestring in 1985 wasn’t going to be able to afford realistic CGI effects.

And I’ll also note this… pre-generated stuff like that was extremely expensive at the time, which is why John Carpenter went practical with his in Escape From New York instead.
Instead of having a computer generated wire frame video, they found a way to film it using models painted and lit in a way to make it look CGI.

This argument acts like there was never anything called in-camera, practical effects used in films for decades before. I'm certain there was something which could have been effective.
