Do you realize that the vectors of these forces are almost aligned?
I definitely didn’t understand anything here.
brother
Yes, the lift is also bigger, what’s so hard to understand there?
It doesn’t, and no one has said this. the lift will be 86.6% of the input and the forward will be 50% of the input.
lift bigger, horizontal still 50% of input.
If you have the nozzles at 60 degrees down relative to 90 degrees
is the harrier going to accelerate harder upwards or forwards
Up.
if total is 20k.
Thrust up will be 20,000 * 0.866 = 17,320 pounds of force.
Thrust forward will be 20,000 * 0.5 = 10,000 pounds of force. (HALF OF INPUT)
Thrust forward is half of input. Thrust up is still a lot bigger than thrust forward.
great that is the only correct answer for this application.
horizontal is still half though.
That’s what I’ve been trying to tell you for the last hour
if that was the case it would accelerate equal parts forward and up
iirc this has been going on for 8 days now…
WRONG
like it cant be simpler than looking at this picture
Yep… unfortunately, Gaijin hasnt even fixed the little stuff yet, so will probably go on for a while longer yet

As soon as falcon 5 drops my Shar im out.
NO!!!
They are not equal. its half → OF INPUT ← not one half of the component two vectors.

28,000 total
he said 50% of that is vectoring horizontally backwards
vectors meet at 90 degrees were is the other 50% going
It doesn’t exist, you can’t calculate it like that. Whenm using angles the two results are not linearly additive or subtractive.
28k total at 60 deg will give you one horizontal vector at 28,000 * 0.5 = 14,000 and the vertical vector at 28,000 * 0.866 = 24,248
cope feetpics stan
there is no logical explanation for you
if you were a harrier pilot you’d accelerate straight up thinking you were going to accelerate forwards.
go take a math course
or ask your math teacher
says the guy who cant even calculate SEP
thats physics btw not math
