It could carry 4
Exact same configuration as the Aim-9M
So
2 with BOL
or
4 without BOL
at least until Gaijin decides we can have TMC+BOL

You mentioned some proof for the twin rail + BOL, do you have the documents for that? Or is it just a concept that could be implemented in war time?
You can read Flame’s breakdown/bug report here:
https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/zcBgtng9Pe5x
But in essence, there is no reason it couldn’t be done physically and the most likely answer was that BOL was added late into the FA2’s life and there was never a need for it to actually carry both/no documented proof that it did.
Gaijin’s official line for it iirc is: “If we deem it necessary then it can get the buff” or something to that affect

Considering the av 8 can carry 240cm with 6 missiles but we only get 60 with 6 or 60 plus some glitter with 4 i dont see why not? That is untill they make the flares on bol better.
But you’re forgetting something crucial. The AV8 is American and the Shar 2 is British and the only bias stronger than Russian bias is Anti-British bias. When the F47 is added then we might get a new Shar 2 or Shar 2 buff
180 on the AV-8B+ but yeah, does seem exceedingly wierd why they are so adverse to that buff other than Britain tax

I read that as shir 2 and was confused as ruck
Why was this flagged
heyy I can text again its been awhile since I played.
Wasn’t this about the HUD??
I can’t remember what we were talking about tbh
Fair enough well since I am back and I recently opened and IWM archive piece about the HUD I can happily tell everyone that the HUD on the FRS.1 and FRS.1E are completely incorrect.
Ohh and we still need our 40 degrees AOA the Hornet should be able to do nothing except buzz in terror as a mighty Harrier swoops in to devour it.
Harrier missing extreme amounts of AOA and low speed control // Gaijin.net // Issues

I could tell the HUD was incorrect the other day when I was just trying to passively bomb in the FRS.1 Late and no CCRP line would show up. Not to mention the obvious fact of no gun sights

CCRP is definetly a bug (was working on dev)
https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/U3qeSWI30bLg
and the lack of gunsight is suppose to be fixed if/when they add EEGS. (so hopefully next major)

lol I just want to point out to you as you also play a lot of sim.
Not even the standard HUD displays are correct.
From the normal flying mode to the fact that there is actually no landing gear down mode.
There is no radar alt in the top right it’s just on the wheel at the bottom and above 5k feet the wheel falls away and it becomes baro.
There are steering markers that tell you is the radar contact is left or right of the FOV
The list goes on.
Oh yeah, not surprised (hoping you get the releases needed for that)
But at its core, those 2 are missing
And the vector display.
Yes still working on release of video segments I can share this picture as it’s in another released video.
But yeah the aircraft symbol is present as well.
Yeah the HUD in game quite literally doesn’t have one yet. And the bomb sight and gun sight seem to have been misinterpreted.
The cockpit itself is also not modeled correctly and the radar display is missing all the symbology of the HUD.
I swear between the Dev server and the update release, they purposefully screwed up the HUD just to spite us. I remember playing on the Dev and enjoying the new HUD in testflight but most of the symbology seems to have been removed

Yeah, ohh well. Literally nothing can be done about it and I don’t think they are going to prioritize it next update.
Nor the lack of flight performance still however I still have no trouble chasing a MiG-21 up to 30,000 feet and than dancing with him until I pull him down to my best altitudes. It’s just from there I have no gunsight or eegs to finish the deal and have to take extremely close guess shots. Really really annoying as I use the Harrier as a deterrence fighter to allow my friendly bombers to bomb unopposed as long as I am on CAP.
The 40 degrees AOA, extra thrust, better low speed lift due to thrust effects is all enough to make one very excited, seeing as it can already perform well in the correct hands.
