will the Tornado gr1 get the AJ.168?
Not this update to my knowledge. Hasn’t been ruled out for future additions.
Called it, still disappointing
10.3 is a far better place for the DS since 10.0 Britain doesnt exist

I don’t know how much it changed but when I played it on Dev initially the missile still missed Ships by flying over the top and then missed tanks by a country mile unless you top attacked.
From the looks of it at least, we’re getting the 90 flares and not the 32 from the beginning. Although I’m a tad confused as it’s 30/30/30 for each dispenser but I thought the centre dispenser actually had the 32 or am I mistaken?

You are mistaken.

I see they couldnt be bothered to C&P the Buc S2Bs radar over to the Buc S2

It has a radar?
It’s had a “radar” since it was added. But they never added the Blue Parrot Radar. As far as I am aware. they both use the same radar.
Is it a ground or naval radar? Will I be able to pick up tanks with it or not.
Air to air currently. Will be great for the buc S2B as it has IFF meaning you can use the 9Ls in front aspect in SB
Oooooooo. Now that is a shout. Although if it follows in the sea harrier footsteps the iff will work less than half the time and will show your friendlies as enemies.
I’ve not had that issue of late. Though Im guessing like the Sea Harrier, Ground clutter is obviously gunna be an issue and I will probably be spending a lot of time ground hugging in the Buc S2B… So its usefulness will be limited. Though Im rarely gunna be running 9Ls to begin with. At least if I ever do. I can be more confident using them. I rarely fire them on the Tornado because IDing targets is a pain in the butt.
But the new RWR also does help on that front, you should have some idea of what is looking at you with a radar.
Half the time a good rwr is worth more than a radar tbh. It’s just a shame the Martels still seem to be missing ships by flying over them.
I might have a go at bug reporting that once I have the Buc S2B unlocked and spaded. I know what the issue is, but its wording it. Gunna need a lot of pictures.
Does it not just go for centre mass hits but due to the ships masts and other things it just flys above them. The only problem I could see is if they model it to go lower it may stop being as accurate against tanks as it is now.
That is my theory. It just targets the “average” centre of the ships, which is way above the hull. What they need to do is overhaul the boundry boxes for naval targets to be lower without changing a thing for tanks.

Seems simple in theory but this is war thunder we’re talking about. Doing this could lead to the sea level to drop exposing the ammo of ships.
