Yeah, even just IRST and Radar working together
0 bug fixes once again
I just want my gunsight 😭
You’d better buy the new pack for 70$.
Spoiler
Please find the guy in the forums that is adamant that the barrels don’t shake
It is me!!! The barrels in that video are set to spread more ammo for “reasons” ;)
So I was just doing a battle in ARB after a long time of not playing it. The Sea Harrier FRS.1 seems much happier now with the better planes sucked up to higher BRs but one problem occurred to me.
So have this challenge I need to complete for today, I don’t have to but I enjoy doing them:
Today's challenge

Not too hard when I just got a game like this:
Before this 3 kill game I also got a game with a kill on a F4S.
Then I realise, the Sea Harrier FRS.1 is not a fighter. It is a strike aircraft. WHAT THE FUCK GAIJIN! Gaijin even after like 2 years when a bug report was filed for this, they can’t even change 3 fucking lines of code. I know how the system works because I have modded code for Sea Power. Fix you game a small fix that would likely require no effort that you could have gotten an infant or intern to do.
WHAT THE FUCK!!!
Which one has it better in ASB for A2A, FRS 1 or FRS 1 Early? Is the extra 9l worth the 0.7 BR increase, or is there any other substantial benefit?
I can’t speak much for the Early but it is most likely better as you don’t always have to worry about things like MiG 23s with IR long range AAMs
FRS1e.
Fighting 10.7s in the FRS1e with no gunsight is hard enough, but fighting things like the Mig-23MLD is just a waste of time imo, especially when compared to stuff like the Harrier T10 at the same BR. Heck, even the AV-8S is a LOT better
The T10 has no radar, it’s much less suited for air combat just based on that alone IMO. Guess you are right, I did notice an adventage in 10.7 since I was able to shoot all aspect IR in headons against people that didn’t seem to know if I was an ally or an enemy lol.
Yeah, so makes VID a little harder, but the better RWR, FM, CM loadout, gun, etc etc stacks up rapidly, if/when attacked, you can usually win the dogfight, the FRS1. you rarely can, at least against aircraft like the Mig-23MLD
and being able to do some multiroling in the T10 is actually quite good fun.
no radar honestly makes almost no difference for ARB tbh. However the aden 25 is a worse gun in game, the lack of tracer makes it twice as bad as its much harder to adjust your aim…
The harrier 2 should carry six sidewinders or ASRAAMs too by the way, it should outmatch the shar by a significant amount in every way
Question was about ASB, I wouldn’t play these in RB tbh.
Whoah whoah whoah. Dont diss the 25ADEN like that. Its easily the best gun in the tree!!! Its fricking laser canon.
the last paragraph didnt safe from a tab refresh… great…
I was going to say that the camera probably still has some use in sim as it wont trigger an RWR, while adding a more challenging way to spot things
a laser canon to create an outline of the plane in the sky maybe
I would also like to add that this is a very common enemy to normally face. Your (what should be) advantage is worthless at that BR most of the time but attackers aren’t designed for that as a primary role
Wouldn’t be so bad if the Shar had its correct performance lol
I’ve found new documents (From the National Archives yes they are good and ok) That shows that the Shar had ailerons up floated 5 degrees that delayed flow separation on the outer section of the wing allowing more AOA to be pulled before buffet and wing rock.
Yep
And welcome back :P
