it boggles my mind how they managed to do all of those fancy ui changes but didnt add any way to see aircraft weight

That’s surely on purpose. They’d get a ridiculous amount of bug reports if it would be visible. They’d have to redo many many flight models which have been adjusted by weight to make them perform closer to real life.

The bug report I made 9 days ago hasn’t received any reaction. However this one was made yesterday and was immediately accepted: Community Bug Reporting System

Well that’s concerns the same thing but a whole lot easier to fix as my report also makes claim of a broken flight model. The fact that they ignore my bug report but accepted this one affirms that they are never going to fix it. Possibly they’ll fix the X-ray in three years.

Not a Hawk 200 but close enough.

Was able to go to the Mach Loop today and caught a pair of T.2’s flying through.

New camera + lens is working well then. Looks good

Yeah was working pretty well. Had some Texans too.

Would have also had a Typhoon if I had stayed 20 minutes longer. Had just set off back home when one came bombing overhead.

The one with the gunpod is a Hawk 100. Note the nose.

Is it definitely? BAe have been known to use plenty of photoshops, composite images, etc. in their marketing. Something about that image doesn’t look quite right, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen a real Hawk 200 with that paint scheme.

Hmm. Unfortunately the Hawk 200 badge is in the exact same place as it is on the mockup, and the camo is striped in the same pattern too, just recoloured. It does indeed seem to have been doctored.

Damn you Sebbo for getting my hopes up and dashing them on the rocks of bureaucracy.

Considering their model collision excuse doesn’t really hold up, do we think Gaijin refuses to actually arm the RDA out of spite (Britain suffers, etc.) or is this actually them merely not understanding that the RDA was an isolated airframe (or three) built to show off the radar and therefore there was no reason to display it with a gun mounted?

I would have said that too a while ago, now it has 4x Mavs and 4x P-4
