Just another aircraft to that long list atp
I compared the harriers top speed to the f18.
If the FA.2 and radar attack can do well with less missiles and slower speed you will be fine with more speed and a ton more missiles.
You than said the hornet is a whole 1br higher.
Yes we are it’s been so wrong for so long it’s funny almost.
The fa.2 doesn’t do well though. It has to fight opponents with vastly weaker armament to even stand a chance. In a 14.0 game its just food. Hell, in a 13.7 game its food.
Not anymore lol. It can go toe to toe with the F-18 in a close in dogfight while still being restricted and underperforming.
Wait till live
Even with the old fm I could do ok in up tiers.

when did I say that? its at least better then the 13.7s just due to shear Aim120 count alone? itll be fine at 14.0 until decompression happens

I think lowest BR, where hornet with AIM-120 can be - 13.3, but with AIM-120 limited to only 6 in total(2 on intakes and 2x2 LAU-127).
But it should be A+ or an mid C(for example 1995). With old engines
F/A-18C late also underperforms a lot.
Idk about A/C early.
Sorry no meeting 12.0s with a full swarm of amraams is just not fair.

And it’ll likely never see a dogfight against a competent opponent.
i think it could go to 13.7 with 10x 120As (can stay at 14.0 with 120C)

This. Especially without apg79 and no bol pods.
From what I have seen source wise the F-18 is not underperforming bye that large a margin.
Missing like 1 deg/S.
At an unknown speed.
Lmfao that’s like not even that far off.
Harrier on other hand is missing almost 1G str through the flight range
Has no pitch augmentation with VIFF
And the virtual instructor limits its AOA to below buffet conditions 16.5 AOA vs 21 as stated to be max load value in the AV-8A manual.
After all that it’s still capable to dance with the likes of the F-18 after the dev buff

Thats… spesifically what the Harrier T.10 is for?
Sea Harrier is a more Air-to-Air focused Harrier. T.10 fills the role of a premium ground attack.

Btw, what about Harrier II?
That’s why I said it it’s only for a smaller community.
AV-8B na on the other hand fills both play styles well
As in?
