The author of this cockpit was here, but I won’t tag him, maybe he’ll stumble upon it himself.
The point is this - why did the cockpit become black? It looks more like an F-15 cockpit than a Typhoon. I’ve never seen a photo of a Typhoon with a black cockpit (it’s hard to even remember which British-built aircraft had a black cockpit last time, a Jaguar, probably)
irl turn radius looks in the ballpark of half that of the in-game one. Thats just eyeballing it tho.
Can you do it on tornado instead?
Looks like at the nose, the missile is angled at 40 degrees.
In game its only 15 degrees.
I don’t have brimstone tornado though. Even if you rotate your reference of the eurofighter to match the angle of the tornado Brimstone pylon, it’s still deviates a lot
Yeah it’s mostly that Tornado pylon the misisle is launched from is angled downwards at 10-15 degrees.
This and to calculate what it should be using in game references the launching vehicle needs to be the same to calculate distances and speeds of the missile to a reasonable accuracy.
You absolutely can tell there is a signficant difference already, but it would be good to eliminate any known errors straight away.
I’ll do a Tornado Gr4 clip for you as close as I can in a little bit
Perfect thanks!
Just make sure it’s the rear pylon the missile is being launched from.
Looking back at that tornado test, I think the altitude is much higher but I still think it’s subsonic, the wings are not swept, clouds passing by
Matched it about as closely as I could based upon a few educated guesses, like the alt being around 20k ft
(will be HD shortly, still processing)
Yeah its not pulling anywhere near as hard, granted thats not gonna work for bug reporting.
Itd be interesting trying to see this pic recreated:
Is there a way to zoom out when flying an aircraft?
I should be able to reverse engineer the maths, but I’ll take a look tomorrow.
The biggest problem I see is warthunder does not utilise body lift in missiles.
Part of why the devs think the Stinger can only do 12g when it is capable of double that at least.
Or maybe a better way to measure the difference in angle is when the brimstone reaches the nose of tornado and the angle it produces relative to the plane of the fuselage
Which I think Is what Devil did
Could do so in replay
Another difference to note is that the irl missile is flying in its direction of travel, the WT missile is falling in that direction…
