BAe Sea Harrier - Technical data and discussion

I suspect it did do lead computation, but so far only got one secondary source implying so. The report I have on HUD development was written before they did the gunsight bit.

But at least it has IFF now, yes?

Splendid!

So Shar is finally cleared for Sim EC…

Indeed it is, just need to wait for them finish the Cockpit HUD. the actual HUD shared by Flame would be awesome, should display radar target in the HUD. But with the lack of playable EC9 aircraft, FRS1 is probably going to be my home for a while

Should only take 6 to 9 months

Well, that sure would be nice - but even more I’d love them to see fix velocity vectors on HUD’s in general, as not a single one is doing what it is supposed to in WT…

Yeah that would be good

First bug potentially found:

3/4 Aim-9Ls, fired just fine and worked like a treat. Missile 4 on the other hand. Would NOT arm. No matter what I did or tried. Shall keep an eye out for it doing it again before officially reporting (in case it was SB just being SB) but figured it was best to share so others can keep an eye out too

Delete the loadout and recreate it.

Thank you, shall give it a go. Tested in a custom battle and all 4 fired just fine, so not entirely sure, but shall do that as well.

(though with the new mutli-role default loadouts, I dont actually need a custom loadout anymore)

I sometimes have this (or a similar) issue randomly, so far not been able to see a pattern. I noticed it with J35A and iirc also once or twice in MiG-29 and A-10…

Sea Harrier cockpit - Beautiful.

That RWR though. Game changing.

the launch warning is an absolute life saver, no more playing chicken with “is it radar spaa or a sparrow”

Question though.

Now that the Squad SHar is the post war variant…Do I/We make a suggestion to have the ‘Blue Eric’ Added to it? (I Band radar jammer)

If we had ECM yes. But unfortunately not a game mechanic yet. Hoping that is something we get this year. Would give a lot of British top tier a new lease on life

I thought only the GR.3 used Blue Eric?

In David Morgans Book ‘Hostile Skies’ He mentions it was fitted to SHars at the very end of the Falklands War. But was used mainly by GR.3s beforehand.

So the Squad FRS.1 should get it, when we get Electric CM.

Also, loving the new skin on the FRS.1.
The jet just needs drop tanks now to feel complete.

Drop tanks on the Shar and f104’s would be amazing imo.

Yeah, they would be cool just for visuals
