You don’t know how to read bleed rates do you? What do you think the numbers show?
dang, wiki says 13,900 empty for the AV-8B. are you sure they use the same standard for dry?
Did you do feet per sec what value
Could be Kn/s
Literally scroll up and read.
Yes
The harrier 2 doesn’t fly around with no pylons or guns
The pylons alone weight over 3,000 pound on that fat ass
Truly American
And they are draggy
thats what makes it so much heavier?
In comparison the pylons on the harrier 1 haves peaky edge profiles designed to make them as drag less as possible
Yes
Looks like the datapoints are getting even worse when you correct the CL curve for higher mach number. Truly an abysmal plane.
Almost like you used harrier 2 data to try chart the harrier 1
Truly wise
do radar harrier II’s use those same type of pylons with air to air fits
Except I didn’t. Next question.
Yes?
It’s the same wing and pylon regardless
how much does sea harrier fa2 weight with all those pylons attached?
Lmao
Well wrong AOA if your comparing it to the irl aircraft but that’s ok as you believe the lift is correct
I told you the FA.2 the fatest harrier 1 is at 13,500
(The engine is pushing out something like 19,000 lbs force using just the combat rating)
Much higher TWR yet much lower drag = better performance
is there written proof?
thats the full empty weight numbers ive seen for it, not pylon attached weight. a figure i see for the FA 2 is 14500lb
How is the AoA wrong? Please explain.
Why should I?
You agree with gaijin so it has to be correct and you need to drastically increase the thrust to compensate
