I agree, but we also need to bring more public attention to this. People think the Harrier was a flying brick and not much better in the air than the Yak 38
Who thinks that?
And how would we even bring public attention to it?
Which WT HUD does… Even the new Hornet HUD - while being a vast improvement - has its bugs and issues.
Also, generally there should be a NAV mode for the HUDs. In WT HUD operation is dependent on stores selection exclusively. So out of ammo, out of luck selecting something useful to show on the HUD…

Not to the extent of this. Other aircraft will actually swap to the selected sight mode. the SHars… wont

And the Frs1 is straight up missing a gunsight
YEah there is that. Im hoping its because its planned to come with the EEGS
That has been confirmed?
No, pure speculation, but would make a bit of sense.
Its kinda stupid to do all this work for the new HUD and not code functional EEGS at the same time and with a total lack of any gun sight, just makes sense why its not been added yet
I agree completely lol but we will have to see.
Maybe they can fix the smoke and IR issues while they are doing all this for the harriers.
That is my hope. Smoke should take them 2 seconds, god knows why it has taken this long,
IR sigs I get taking longer, especially as the F-117 solution only just became available, but certainly worth pestering them about this update

Yeah if there has ever been a time to pester them about the harriers it’s not I was not expecting a major Harrier overhaul this update.
Along with the AOA limit thing on the SUs it could be possible to get them to finally model VIFF and the harriers max AOA correctly.
They might, I think that is more likely to come with a future major update, following a fresh batch of post-update reports. Similar to what we had with the Tornado.
Could be they have seen plenty of my reports but they did not believe them until I found the E-M diagram they very quickly changed tone with that one. But the Harriers ability to dogfight in mouse aim is trash as they can barely even pull to their buffet onset.
16 degrees AOA is all the mouse aim gives you yet the max load factor chart gets you a whole 21 degrees AOA to play with.
The A-7’s do, function practically flawlessly (outside of the ballistic pipper and Flight path maker being swapped, but that seems to be common to many HUDs for some reason).
Yeah, I think you spammed them jsut enough. Too much and you get banned, not enough and they ignroe you

Walking the tight rope. Will have to see during live when I can test with local host and all that.
The argument about AOA will be easy as I have all the data on that one.
Im just hoping they dont pull a CR2.
It had an amazing remodel on the dev server and then never made it to live.
If they do that I will probably just uninstall war thunder lol.
What a tease that would be the Shars are actually fun in the dev server.
Where as the only reason I played them before was because I liked them personally.
Yep, same. Its basically the only thing that is holding my interest this major update. without it, I doubt i would tocuh the game in a few months, especially given the CAPTOR-M hasnt gotten any TLC yet

The HUDS too they really went out of their way to spoil us select few who enjoy it.
If they change everything that should be changed + add AOA and viff.
It would become a very popular plane. (Would also give them lots of premium sales)
