Premium British aircraft with a combat rating of 9.7, it’s a disgrace, the aircraft has no false heat targets (while the Harrier GR.3 has the same combat rating), armed with 4 SRAM air-to-air missiles. Missiles with a range of 2 km, an unknown self-destruction system. The aircraft is incredibly heavy, it is almost impossible to twist at least someone without using the vertical takeoff system. I do not understand what happened to the pitch. In the attached links I leave two videos of 2 minutes each, demonstrating the full power of the missile, and also this aircraft was officially on fire and did not turn.
Премиумный британский самолёт боевого рейтинга 9.7, это позор, самолет не имеет ложных тепловых целей(когда Harrier GR.3 на этом же боевом рейтинге имеет), вооружён 4 ракетами воздух-воздух SRAM. Ракеты с дальностью полета в 2км, с непонятно откуда взятой системой самоуничтожения. Самолет невероятно затежелен, перекрутить хоть кого-то без использования системы вертикального взлета практически невозможно. Я не понимаю что случилось с тангажом. В прикрепленных ссылках я оставлю два видео длительность по 2 минуты показывающие всю мощь этих ракет, а также насколько самолет был затежелен и не поворотлив. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1yu_JYbyrwUoqqBanSRdqRCpZIJqEDQGi/view?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/11AI2hGeirjGkEp0lq2smF1ikGJdLzMhG/view?usp=sharing
In the video, shots were fired from a distance of 300m-700m at aircraft maneuvering towards the carrier aircraft, the missile suddenly starts flying back (into the player’s face), after which they start maneuvering towards the enemy, false heat targets (I know that there is no interference protection).
The performance of the SRAAM remained largely unchanged since March 2021. What has changed is the combat environment and the BR of the aircraft. Harrier GR.1 used to be at 9.3 BR, but due to its exceptional performance, it was bumped up to 10.0 and subsequently lowered to 9.7 BR. Now, the entire tier above 9.7 is populated with highly maneuverable fighters carrying high-performance missiles, which is undoubtedly a double whammy for Harrier GR.1, a plane that is already lacking in maneuverability and countermeasures.
