Does this have a similar FM to the av8s or is it different?
Same model as the Sea Harrier FRS1 but with a slightly better engine I think

Oh you are not. I know a guy who plays it stock. It broke him.
Not really easy to get kills, both because of the flight model and the 9Ls, you cant base bomb because either you get nailed before getting there or theres none left once you are there, theres literally no efficient way of spading it lol
And the RWR is also lackluster
There is

I ended up just grinding the early mods for the Sea Harrier in ground rb, its much easier to get kills haha
My experience with the gripen in grb at least has been that my rwr gets instantly crazy the moment i go over a cover and 3 aim120s are launched straight my way lol
That’s the one! Awesome.
You still have to compete with supersonic jet for the kills
Whatever you are expecting, it is worse

There’s definitely something up with this thing’s heat signature. I genuinely don’t think I’ve flared a single missile that was fired at me from behind.

All the Harriers seem to have very hot engines, it does make sense as it produces like 10,000kgf of thrust, but still it feels hotter than a lot of afterburning jets

An F5 that’s running an afterburner has a lower IR signature than the harrier…because Gaijin…they don’t model afterburner plumes as IR signatures

No, its just that temperature is based on the cockpit gauges, and F5 has the measuring device in front of the engine, resaulting in lower temps

Yeah but I distinctly remember flaring missiles without issue in the GR.3, which I have played quite a bit. This new one though…it gets stomped on by Aim9G’s, J’s, H’s, L’s, M’s (but what doesn’t have issues with an M), R60M’s…
I wonder if it is something with the new engine
