Av8 harrier

Please fix the av8a/c harrier, it overheats like crazy and is made wrong, ingame it uses all 4 of the exhausts for warm air, it should be that only the 2 rear ones produce warm air whilst the 2 front ones produce cold air.

Hey,

The engine temps are correct.

Here is the mk.106 on the Sea Harrier FA2;

Spoiler

Maximum continuous use is at 89% RPM, RPM isn’t 1:1 with in game throttle but if you run at 90% throttle the engine will last long enough for a full 25 minute game.
Maximum combat power is around 92% throttle in game and will last 15 minutes.

This is incorrect, only 2 of the nozzles in game are hot you can see this in the CDK;

Spoiler

Also this doesn’t impact the ability to decoy an incoming IR missile, per my conversation with the developers the only thing that matters in game is thrust to IR decoy signature ratio. This impacts all Harriers more because the Pegasus engine gains the most thrust at low speed, so as you turn to avoid the missile you slow down, increasing thrust and reducing the ratio between the two.
