Technically the Harriers in game done have thrust vectoring really there no effect on pitch rate where at in real life it had big effect on the pitch rate.

Terribly written, but the report’s in for all that it matters.

Gaijin Lies x (to many times to count.)
1: The 110% rating (Short Lift wet) was never used to measure performance data IRL as it was too risky
2: the documents in the AV-8B SAC would use “Max Thrust rating” a real thrust setting on the Pegasus engines.
3: I have proven that the Harriers take on average around 1 minute too long to climb to altitude.
4: The Harriers thrust drops off by a good 50% at high speed so adding another 50% would legit just make it realistic.
So why does Gaijin have actual beef with the Harrier. This has gone on far too long for me to believe its ignorance or otherwise. This is purely them not wanting to buff it.
(If you look closely you can see max thrust rating wowwwwww)
Here is an installed thrust chart that maybe they can use unless they think they are correct over and above the actual people who made the planes.
Edit: why was this flagged

Disappointing.
It looks like it’s just one shade of NATO Green BS381C:285 all over when it should have a lighter shade of Lichen Green BS 4800:12B.25 on the lower surfaces, that extends up the sides of the fuselage under the wings and elevators

So we don’t have a single accurate camo for the T.10 so far
There was one Harrier with a single colour green paint scheme, but that was BAe+QinetiQ’s test aircraft ZH653 which became the unofficial “Harrier T.11” (somewhere between T.10 and T.12) but officially a T.12A as it had Pegasus Mk.107. But it also had big black and white test squares instead of RAF insignia

Any chance of having the pylons be removed when nothing is attached to them!? currently impossible ingame but irl it could remove the pylons
They managed to do it for the Harrier 1s lol

i was thinking so! weird the ii hasnt got that. (no drop tanks either)
I thought drag wasn’t modeled for empty pylons so it shouldn’t matter
Drop tanks would be interesting but looks like they’ve put drop tanks on the back burner in general for basically everything

Just visually. I would love either no pylons or drop tanks for custom battles and videos
Is weight modeled on pylons?
Unfortunate. waiting for wing tanks for the phantoms and harriers myself. Even the Kfir is missing them on the wings
I’ll ask about it but no promises :).

I always thought it was fixed on the Harrier II. I know the Is defently had it but my reasoning of thought was “there are maybe some pipes and wires that are not meant to be removable easily”
