I explained my calculation in the report

Yes the turn performance of the Harrier 2 is pretty close, however the climb rates AOA acceleration are too low.
The Harrier 1 turn rates are just not even close to their IRL standard.
A lot of work has already gone into just the Harriers flight performance.
They should also all have soot free exhaust and have very small IR signatures yet they burn very hot.
Speed limit is obviously not affected by throttle
Re-did the top speed with around 92.5-93% throttle (715 deg engine temp) and top speed was 0.91 instead of 0.92
Still a long way from around Mach 0.828 specified in the charts …
Acceleration should also still be valid
But unfortunately for you that is an H-M diagram and not top speed…
That’s not the top speed of the plane but more its ability to reach X height from X speed.
Although the difference is small lol.
Its still quite slow
I don’t see how 1G flight envelope is anything other than the top speed that it can reach at level flight
They are fundamentally similar. (from a gaijin standpoint its better to use the 1G level flight envelope.)
The Harrier 2 is worse than the Harrier 1 in almost everyway in terms of air to air combat.
