Out of the harrier Gr1, Gr3, AV-8A and AV-8C. The US premium AV-8A is the best with 4x the cm count of the others. But equal in other respects to the Gr3.
Gr1 is probably the weakest of the 4 with no CMs at all
Sea harrier FRS1 and FRS1e are fairly decent at least they would be if they ever finished them.
Harrier Gr7 would be the superior ground attack aircraft over the AV-8B(NA) or AV-8B+ if they fixed outstanding bug reports like missing AGM-65 or the gen 1 Tpod. ( In GRB, in ASB, the 10x JDAM payload is a tad OP)
In air combat it holds some advantages over them with a bigger cm load and better AAMs to the AV-8B(NA) but overall weaker to the AV-8B+ due to no radar or AMRAAM.
Sea Harrier FA2 has potential to be marginally stronger than the AV-8B+ (much larger cm load and a better radar in the FA2) but it’s so poorly modeled that it’s not.
In the future the harrier Gr9A will be the superior ground attack variant.

Vampire is held by both sweden and italy, originally it was italy when it comes to CAS as it got bombs, gaijin just added another vampire with bombs via finland and also forgot the rest of their equipment.
Make a suggestion to change its br to 9.3
We did, nothing changed

do it again
We will, and we have for the last few be changes…
Being Britain adds 0.3 BR onto every vehicle unfortunately

After constantly being terrorized by the Hunter F.58, I would like to see this plane moved up to 10.0. The fact that has great missiles, countermeasures, all while facing planes that it massively out speeds, is insane. All while at the same BR as the much more limited F.6, its blatantly biased in favor of the plane that can be easily purchased.

If the Hunter F.58 went to 10.0 it would be useless since almost all common enemies have flares, and its flight performance would go from ok to quite bad.
The BRs are too compressed to move it up. It is good, but moving it up will make it quite bad. Good luck facing a Mig-21bis in it lmao.
Better one plane has a chance to suffer than an entire battle rating of other planes.
If you move that up, many more planes would need to move up too, such as the Av-8s, some harriers, the ayit, and any other subsonic with ok missiles.
And then since those aren’t fully 10.0 capable, 10.X stuff has to move up. And then you basically get decompression.
Luckily they have far worse flight performance and aren’t nearly as much of a problem.
so, the topic was created in August, the problem appeared two years ago, there is still no solution.
it was 2025, the gaijin were working hard…
Gaijin fixes BR issues on a “every few years” schedule

This plane is not found in random at all, I haven’t seen it for a year, I have half-upgraded modules on it. I wrote about it on the old forum four years ago, as we see, there is no result.
They also do not see the packet mirage with the Matra Magic 2 at 12.0, it has bad flight characteristics, but the Harriers sit on 13.0 and no one cares. They also forgot about the A-10 at 11.7, which was created exclusively for joint battles and flies either to an empty field or as an appetizer. And there are many such examples, but the main thing for Gaijin is to sell 3D models for 50 dollars every couple of months, and they do not care about the rest.

I am using the F6 now in ARB to spade it for rp bonuses, but it is worst experience ever.
It is slow, it cannot turn, IR missiles explodes past 3.7 seconds, bombs are useless for bases, everything gets destroyed before I reach there. I have probably just 2 kills in 22 battles. I am literally a sitting duck hoping to kill at least a few ground units.
I will abandon it as soon as it is spaded. I hope to not loose my hairs in process and preserve mental health.
