Ah, very neat, ty ^^.
How good is the Blue Vixen radar?
Also can the Sea Harrier FA.2 use skyflahes?
Blue Vixen doesn’t have a CW illuminator, so no.
FRS1 should have them as well:

But yeah, Aiming them is pain
Its currently on the Gripens if you want to try it out
But was suppose to be exceptionally good IRL
Base for the PS-05 radar in the Gripen.
Also the base for the ECR-90 Which is the radar in the Typhoon
There are a ton of things I know they are gonna purposefully fuck up
Hopefully the SHar 2 gets the proper one
This is one of the main things they are going to mess up by putting it at 12.7/13.0 and absolutely mess it up
Huh thats interesting, would deffo make the SHAR FRS.1 a lot more effective I suspect. Shame it isnt in the game when it came in.

Really enjoying taking the Shar in AirSB.
Getting used to the bomb/rocket sights is fun, disappointing that we don’t get AP rockets but those RN ones do damage to light targets.
Bombing is fun too but having to have a sharp AoA to see the reticle. Haven’t tried the Drag bombs yet.
Only thing it’s missing is a marker for locked targets when in a2a/standard mode.
It should have a marker, shouldn’t it, or am I missing something?

Just give us a HUD, any HUD with working horizon/attitude display and working velocity vector…

Why not use CCRP? No need to see the reticle if you bomb automatically…
Haven’t tried doing that yet.
Not entirely sure how in SB.
need to set “target point” stuff in binds… since I pretty much only use CCIP i couldnt really help you: best way to describe it is
- set target point
- select relevant weapons with wpn selection
- release authority
- fly over
- profit
Please stay on topic, this isn’t a thread for asking random questions. Take it to the Off topic thread…
Heres a guide for CCRP:
Being the Harrier Gr3 HUD. The SHAR has one of the better HUDs for it. So a good platform to learn in. Aircraft like the Buc and Tornado get a little more fiddly.
Though I really hope we get the actual HUD this update, if we do get the FA2:

Thoughts?
Its an interesting one, captive training round inboard. Is this from a museum?
I remembered seeing it a few months ago, looked into it and it’s stationed at Culdrose I think, some kind of maintenance training example or something? There’s more details about the photo in the link if you want to go down a rabbit hole for it
I suspect, its likely they don’t have the outboards for it and have just moved the wiring to they can mount it inboard. Yeah I’m going with this, given the photo is 2017 long after the Shar retirement.
We could always get in touch with them and ask, I’m sure that’ll go well :P
