Some cockpit work maybe?

We do have helis with them, both Ah-1 and Ah-64 can carry multiple variants of the aim 9

Pegasus 106 confirmed?

It’s true that he’s different now than he was when he first joined the test suit, but it’s strange that I don’t find where the new 1GB update is except this

Well, It has been changed to Mark 106 in the game。

also looks/feels like they corrected the FM, no more 180 is 1.5 seconds memes.

RIP Sea Harrier Mk3

Yeah FM is now basically a copy-paste FRS.1 FM with a little more thrust and a little more mass.

Dunno about irl but on Dev you could. Obviously it was undesirable to do so thanks to range… or lack thereof.

With working horizon / attitude lines and a working flight patch marker? ;-)

I’d imagine so seeing as theres ground launched AMRAAMs and i dont believe they undergo any special modification in relation to launch speed

There, I fixed it for you:

I think it is extremely unreasonable for the FA2 and AV8B+ to be in the same BR. The maneuverability of the FA2 is too poor, as it can only pull out 6G overload at 5000m, which means it has almost no ability to evade radar missiles within 16km. At the same time, both the directional abilities in medium-high altitudes and low altitudes are too poor (overall, the maneuverability of the aircraft is at most 9.7).

Therefore, its BR should be lowered to 12.0.

If this BR is maintained, this aircraft will be the worst-performing in short-range combat at 12.3.

I’m not really sure it’s fair for 11.0 planes to fight a plane with AIM-9Ms and AMRAAMS

However the Sea Harriers FM is so abysmal for its BR it could be the only way to make it playable

I dont see Gaijin reducing it tbh, you could make it a thread in the dev area to discuss now its FM is corrected as people can actually go look at it?

Though I do wonder how much of a different impact the SHAR with AMRAAMs would be vs say, F14a/b with its aim54s at 11.7/12.0 respectively.

If the plane gets splatted for months they might drop it, but i dont see them releasing it at 12.0 without a major shift in the public view via a thread in the dev test zone.

cant dodge incoming SARH and ARH missiles? sounds a bit like our other native british amram capable jet lol. been playing the tornado recently, and yes its good but at 12.7 its going to get its shit kicked in sadly. no matter what they give us the fact that we cant pull out of a head on in time bellow 10km is just instant death for us as even if we survive were already showing our ass to a jet that will be faster than us and can out turn us for days… only way i can see making the tornado ever viable is to give it r27ers lol. we need range.
