Major Update “Hornet's Sting” — DEV Server Changelog (10.03.2025)

I’ll stop here because there’s no point in reasoning with someone who refuses to wake up.

Maybe take the matter into DMs with a tech moderator like @Gunjob. He seems to be knowledgeable on British stuff

There has been talks with techmods

They do all they can and I appreciate them a lot for the hard work they do.

However the devs are the ones with the final say and the devs decided the Harrier taking over a minute to long to climb to any altitude is just ok whatever. (Not a bug)

A model is technically 1977 model so, they never gets 9Ms.

Just wait B model gets 9Ms or we gets F-14A late and F-14D.

lol the LJDAMs on the hornet need looking into xD

Currently they want to go anywhere but where I aim them.

Also, does anyone know if you can drop 7 on 7 different targets and guide the last one onto target #8? That’s what they’re supposed to do right?

concerning the MLU they have acepted my reports on the ecm pod and on the ligtening III but no chages so far.

I really hope the add something to it because as much as I love tornados there’s too little to justify 150k/200k rp

@TheSoloWing_Pixy
All things I never did for $1000.
1- I never once said Kh-38 and AGM-65 are equal in a direct comparison.
I explicitly stated in a direct comparison of stats that AGM-65 is inferior to Kh-38.

2- I stated that in ground RB game mode due to lack of lethal SPAA, and prior to Pantsir’s September 2024 buffs, that Harrier and Su-25SM3 were equally OP, which they were.
The Pantsir buffs make the Su-25SM3 superior, and on-par with F-16C and Su-34.

3- I stated radar F&F missiles are both undefeatable and would cause massive teamkilling, far more teamkilling than FAB-5000 could ever wish to cause.

4- You agreeing with me on turret baskets is cool I guess.

aren’t they both able to pull more than 100 degrees now with limiter off? idk I heard they became silly with the changes

Hey, i was wondering about the requirements for historical reports for the new radar NCTR function.
I have already made a report for the JAS39C (Community Bug Reporting System) but thought i’d ask before needlessly deep diving into the search for more sources.

As a primary source, that’s sufficient for it to be accepted for further review by the Devs.

Could you forward this one?

https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/0pjyC4bjkc9h

There is also this one.

They changed flap deployment speed but not how the flaps deploy so it’s still incorrect

Is there any update to getting this stuff fixed? Because for the French HAC this stuff was fixed on a timescale of HOURS while for the UHT we have been waiting YEARS. It is supremely unfair, and I feel if it isn’t fixed now, we will be waiting even more years.

In the same vein, I don’t know if this one has been forwarded but it would be good if you could provided it hasn’t already been forwarded, as Rafale lacks NCTR on dev, but should receive it. It would be quite peeving for the functionality to be added to other platforms but neglected from this, given the notable limitations already present to the platform.

@DirectSupport is more familiar with this topic than me, and also put in this report.


Bug report website loaded properly this time, seems it has been accepted, but not actioned on dev server. Too sleepy to work out where to go from here, so leaving this put and passing out.

Let’s hope, but it’s something that depends more on the mindset of the developers

The Italian Air Force rarely displays its aircraft in an armed configuration, so the few available images come from real operations (e.g., Libya) or training exercises.

In combat scenarios, weapon loads are tailored to the mission, usually flown in pairs or multiples of pairs, resulting in moderate payloads. During range tests or weapons qualification, the loadout is even more restricted.

Regarding the proposed configuration, the GBU-32 bombs stand out. Only three are mounted, despite the fact that the aircraft could theoretically carry at least five or more. Photos show them positioned centrally on the ventral pylons, primarily for balance and center of gravity considerations. This placement is specific to the three-bomb load; a different configuration would be used for a larger payload. The aircraft’s balance (center of gravity) is one of the fundamental aspects to consider.

If I’m not mistaken, the length difference between a standard Mk 83 and a GBU-32 is minimal—just a few centimeters—and does not exceed the length of retarded bombs, which are longer due to their aerodynamic brake. In theory, the aircraft could carry many more bombs, including on the main wing pylons, which can support heavier munitions like the 2,000-pound GBU-24 and EGBU-24.

However, due to the lack of images showcasing a full payload, there is little visual evidence to support this configuration.

Throughout the entire forum’s history, there has been a TON of elaborated, polite suggestions made by players, dedicating hours doing a format to submit reports and details regarding missing features. Yet they have been dismissed and forgotten for years without any significant feedback at all on either the report platform or the forums themselves.
All it took for this NCTR function to get eventually added for the JAS39C was a Game Master to yell loud enough in a matter of minutes.
This engagement feels like a slight conflict of interest.

This is not true, I’ve passed the report (which unlike you claimed does not mean it will get added, but that it will be looked at by Developers and IF accepted added) before looking at the forum, at the same time the comment was made on the forum (Not even a minute of difference) and you can even confirm it by simply looking at the report. The fact a Game Master made the report have no deciding factor here .

I then answered here because it was asked to forward this report and I’ve made it before- I would advice you that, before making any claim, to check
