I survived stock AV-8B Plus…
It can’t be that bad, right? Right?
Imagine you have a spaded Sea Harrier FRS.1(e) and you decided the game was too easy, so you up tiered yourself to 12.3.
Ooof… I guess it really is that bad
Still going for FA.2 though
You are sub sonic platform with 2 9L, everything else has energy advantage over you, has better flightm model, and there are 10 ARH missiles locked at your coordinates
Spaded there is alot of fun to be had, is it the best vehicle in the game? No never was going to be. But in a 11.3-12.3 game you’ve got alot of reach with the AMRAAM which means you’re not instantly dead when someone looks at you.
Oh my god ITS REAL, Thanks
Difference is AV8B+ is the Harrier II airframe, Sea harrier FRS.2 is Harrier 1 airframe.
And then there was the plan to put Vixen into a GR.9A…
Which was the Harrier III proposal which I’ve mentioned a few times and have a forum on.
Would anyone be interested with a Discord chat for this group so people can grind and chat?
Was it possible for the FA.2 to carry 4 x AIM 120 in ADDITION to 2 AIM 9 like the AV-8B Plus can? If not, was this some sort of limitation with the first-generation harriers or was there another reason?
It is mainly the wing. The first gen harrier wing has 2 less hard points than the second gen
Anyone know what “IPD” and “JCW” are on FA.2s RWR?
I-Band PD radar, J-band CW illumination.
Which would translate to “basically 90% of aircraft at top tier” and "you’re about to be hit by the steel chair known as the R-23R or R-24R.
Arguably isnt the SHAR camo 1 that should go on the TT early version? Would fit better imo but still nice to see.
Does this need to be changed or are we missing anything?
So this has been confirmed?
They’re missing on the outboard pylons but you take missiles there so it’s kinda pointless.
Yes it’s from a National Archives doc.
