British Weapon Systems - Technical data and discussion

it did some time ago

This plus having the gun at the same time would be sound

the F111C post AUP retained the launch rails and the F111A is supposed to be able to use the gun and missiles IRL so who knows i believe there is a report on that already

Yep, hope they action those reports soon, enjoying it so far but two extra Aim-9s & the GBU-15 would be cool

Please submit a bug report for that :D

You know Aussie vehicles are destined for the British tech tree now when people start referring to them as British when complaining about them lol

Stormer AD incorrect elevation

So maxed at 55 degrees;


but I cannot see how it would elevate further with the stinger module attached?

it seems likely that the gun can elevate to 65 without the stingers but with it its limited to 55? Either that or gaijin may have gotten some aspects wrong with the model.

Looks like its scaled correct to me;


I’d agree, the wording in the brochure is talking specifically about the 25mm/30mm, so with the Stinger module on its more limited.

Ahhh I bet it can do 65 degrees once the Stingers have been fired.

The model is wrong

Now the question is if gaijin can model that, or will they chose to either simply allow it to have 55 or 65 degrees of elevation.


Gaijin decided to flatten the rear section of the turret that would have given clearance for the stingers, you can see clearly in the photo the rear of the turret tapers down towards the centre at an angle, unfortunately i can’t find any other reference photos. But in game they’ve just drawn a straight line across the rear. This is why the stingers are clipping into the model, the nerf to its elevation is through a modelling error not an error in the brochure

Here it is in game.

And here was the report, unfortunately due to it being such a rare vehicle irl i am struggling to find more reference photos, but you can CLEARLY see that the one provided that the turret isn’t just a single flat plate at the rear causing clipping with the weapon systems.

You sure? Looks about right to me, nearly got the angle perfect here

When was it updated? Because it was flat the last time i see it.

If you compare the position of the glass to the lowest point on the back of the turret, youll see that on the irl image it comes almost down to the bottom of the glass. In game it seems to go to near the top of it. Would this be an angle issue perhaps, or is the angle of the roof not as much as it should be? This is just me eye balling it btw.

Never mind, just checked myself. seems to line up the same it was just dependant on the angle…

Still is;

but that lines up with your image once you correct the angle of the shot to match.

Could be the shadow from the search radar that’s fucking with your eyes making it look more concaved.

How strange, that’s extremely weird to see tbh

Yeah old photos, shadows and camo make it difficult to judge until you overlay the images. It for sure can raise the gun to 65 degrees, but not with stingers loaded.
