Thats also not the point. We wanted this aircraft and this unique version. But we assumed gaijin would make it equal to one they already have in a different tech tree
Instead we get told, if you want this in the British tree, you can have worse flight performance and also not get the extra countermeasures for "balance’ even tho, its worse…
Im happy to pay for it, even pre order it. But right now its not even equal to the AV8B (which i also preordered, im not biased to nations i love the harriers)
Correct but has a more powerful engine, is lighter, has a slightly better gun but with more ammo and far better A2G payload for ASB.
All while having triple the CM count. We are asking for 2x BOL which, with the fake BOL nerfs. Would still work out to be approximately 20 CMs less than the AV-8B(NA)
But it’s only a rear aspect MAWS and not even all-aspect like the A-10C with 480 CMs at 11.7
Given the sea harrier FRS1 is pretty close to beating it in performance and is 11.0. it’s hard to justify the T.10 in this current state
Judging by nothing heard today by the CM, i assume its a good thing and its being considered. Else we would have heard “nah suffer i guess. Pay to suffer”
Please define what is better about the gun? A burst from either will surely down an enemy jet.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but the NA is 11.7, this is 11.3 in SB.
I’m glad you think the A-10C should go up in br. Me too! It’s almost like I’ve said is Way too OP for 11.3 (what is originally was) and should match the Su-25SM3 at 12.0
At best I could agree to bumping the cms to 100, but 60 is still far better than 32 or 12 for that matter. It is still quite usable. And the MAW will undoubtedly save you.
Better faster fire rate, more ammo, faster velocity, less recoil (ADEN’s have an awful kick down on the GR.7 and T.10), and frankly better ammo. The 25mm from the ADEN’s are perfect for getting kill assists as they will get you nothing but hits.
ADEN 25s have no tracers, and the british harrier IIs don’t get EEGS, so in general it takes an extremely long time to get to the point of actually hitting anything, especially given the pretty high velocity compared to other guns a player would be used to.
