No idea, how it works makes no sense, but this is the devs answer to why its sometimes impossible to flare any IR missile. Maybe AB engines have a multiplier. But its why the F-5s are ice cold
Ask the devs then. But this is why the Harrier is one of the hottest aircraft in game and Id argue one of if not the hardest aircraft to flare any missile in.

Maybe engine size is also taken into account? Larger engine = larger box of heat. Or maybe, it’s just Warthunder spaghetti code doing Warthunder spaghetti code things.
Maybe? Or maybe its because the F-14 has 2 engines which applies a multiplier in there somewhere.
Either way, the IR model needs scrapping and starting again

Alvis go look at any of my harrier reports lol.
Look at any manual for harrier engine temps. For the mk103-104 Normal lift dry is 695 C. Devs state normal lift dry is 100% throttle. So go fly with 100% throttle and tell me if it is at 695c or if it shoots up to 720+
Time to climb see here:

Harrier has 50% of its IRL thrust by Mach .7 and takes 30 seconds longer to get to .9 Mach.
See here.

Is this sarcasm?
its not a bug
What about the harrier issues
oh hey, yea f-100D in my experience, doesn’t get past yellow on full afterburner
That’s what’s the issue lmao.
Harrier gets yellow with like 85% throttle.
I can push the av8 to 91%, at 91 it stays pretty even once it hits yellow at 92 though it does overheat, also should have mentioned that the f100’s oil is what gets hot not the engine itself
I’ll say it again at 100 percent throttle the engine temp should be 695c according to the manual.
As normal lift dry is 100% throttle as said by devs
for the f100D super saber???
Harrier my guy.
laughs in saab 105
XD we were talking about different aircraft originally
Mb broski btw I just got the Harrier E-M diagram (I have been correct the whole time)
EM? whats that?
Look on my harrier thread I will post It.
