Harrier T.10 - Countermeasure balance issue

And just unnecessary premium in general. It’s even not that useful as CAS, because there is no 11.3-11.0 vehicles. I think it would make more sense to add it to TT before GR.7.

damn i forgot about JDAM. I stick to AGM 65 D for CAS as they have been very valuable for killing heli campers when I don’t want to waste a sidewinder.

the NA doesn’t need to sacrifice a gun to carry a targeting pod either. quite unfair to be the same BR

Like a lot of premium CAS aircraft, there are usually better options available if you grind the tree, but if you dont, then there values becomes apparent. For me I was hoping for a decent Harrier II airframe for a lower BR. I miss the GR7 being at this kind of BR before it was ruined with the 9Ms and was a lot of fun, but Im hard pressed to justify the cost of it with what is one of the weakest CM loads on any aircraft at that BR.

Yeah. If someone asked me which would be better to purchase, the T10 or AV-8B(NA) I would be hard-pressed to give them any reason to pick the T10.

Gaijin probably just copy-paste GR.7 and replace 9M with 9L. It would be much better solution, like seriously, why US can receive exact same aircraft but without IRCCM and ARH missiles at lower BR, but UK can’t?

T-10 was a solid choice actually. It is a Gr7 in every respect bar the 2 seater cockpit, which has minimal impact. Unlike the Gr5, it has a TIALD and the guided A2G payload that comes with.

The only issue I have with it is the fact it has 60 CMs at a BR where most sub-sonic ground attackers have 180+, some like the Su-39 has the IRCM which is very very good.

the denial of 2x BOL from the T.10 whilst keeping the T.10 at 11.3 shows their total lack of understanding when it comes to balance

i doubt they even play the game, they look at the average british player and go, theyre decent theyll figure it out

I hope it gets BOL (at least 2x) on release at some point. With that engine heat signature it will be one of the least survivable jet at that BR.

Its like they go out of their way to reduce British premium sales.

Harrier Gr1 - no CMS and very buggy AAMs
F4J(UK) - weakest F-4 at 12.0 and way higher BR in SB than its equals
T.10 - barely any CMs.
Lightning F53 - pulled from sale after 3 months
Sea Vixen - Over BRed

been denied so far, hint the post. Looking like its only getting a phimat pod which will give it a load of large chaff, but at the cost of an Aim-9L or A2G weapon.

The Heat sig issues are gettign worse with the FM buff.

its almost like a joke for “how bad can we make a premium sell”

ugly ahh harrier which anybody would automatically ignore in favor of the AV8B(NA)

They should be making this one BETTER in some way to get people to buy it.

No one will buy it.

The average person I recon finds the T harriers ugly.

And it’s worse why even look twice

Almost forgot that it can face F-16A’s and MM2/R-73 carriers, which means insta-death to this Harrier.

real. unless its 11.0 on release any sane person isnt gonna touch it. and the insane ones will buy and use it and its BR will go up from the SHEAR SKILL of using the T HARRIER!

I won’t touch it lol.

I will touch a sea harrier frs.51 or atlas cheetah

less IR countermeasures (you know, the important ones at 11.3 because the harrier is modeled wrong) AND YOU GET TO TAKE LESS MISSILES.

LESS THRUST. HEAVIER.

SAME BR.

This is all we want. its still worse then the AV8B from both an AIRRB and GroundRB perspective. The AV8B still gets the better flight model.

However, in the process you give the T.10 the ability to defend itself. you can remove the BOL again AFTER the IR Signature has been fixed for the harriers.

Now you guys lets get excited I have a clip that perfectly portrays what the T.10 and all other Harriers are in for.

A fully afterburning enemy can one tap your missile with a single flare yet you in the Harrier might as well J out.

The Harrier 1s are still actually lacking in thrust I would hate to see how bad it is if they get corrected.
