take off from the airfield
@Smin1080p_WT while you are here, can you answer whether this was an intended change for the Baz M, given the numerous reports and changes in the past to give it the radar it has on the Live Server?
So best i can do is some pictures
F-1 with ASM-1
F-2 with GCS-1
F-4EJ with 500lb and 750lb GCS-1
T-2 mod for F-1 prototype with GCS-1 (couldnt easily find an F-1 pic with em so this will have to do for now)

Categorically untrue. Maybe there’s some basis for that claim with the Tornado, but the F-14 can easily pull 90 degrees AOA and pulls better sustained when you full pull. This also boils down to the ignoring of the F-14’s flightmodel for years.
That already is happening. That’s not a valid excuse. Refusing to respect history because of a theoretical is unprofessional, and I have a feeling you know that.
It doesn’t matter what the intention is frankly. The game prides itself in being realistic. Refusing to add real features that other aircraft already have is the opposite of that.
I’m disappointed Smin. I thought you’d be better than to do this.

I was sure Tornado did have this
Datamine shows that the F-2 just lost HMD if it did it is now DOA

F-2 throughout the whole dev server didnt have HMD

Wait so it had JHMCS on the model but no HMD? Thats hilarious

The Tornado does have it, but what Smin is trying to spin up is that somehow the F-14 isn’t maneuverable enough to use it. The tornado is a bomber, so it’s obviously not as maneuverable as a dedicated dogfighter. That’s why I said that.
They only changed the pilot model from with HMD to without HMD. The plane never had one to begin with

Hey. If there was news, the report itself would generally be updated with a status update. Right now there is no news on it. At least, its not something planned for this major, thats for sure.

F-2 is an aircraft with AoA manoeuvring that is within the band intended to have the feature. Its currently considered a mistake it currently does not as it was not yet fully set up. Until a dev can respond to the matter and clarify.

Sadly it is many times worse, with little to no benefit on the Tornado and F-14. So for now, its not planned for them.
Fix Captor-M !
What about for stuff like the F-16’s or the JF-17? There’s been reports up for them since the AoA override was first added? The F-16’s even use the same system as the Typhoons, the Manual Pitch Override.
Im sorry that you are disappointed, but this is not a new answer. I have also personally answered you on this via a PM you sent some time ago. So im not sure why you are acting as though this is new information.
As per the PM on 24th April:
Currently there are several aircraft (F-14, Tornado F.3 and some others) that have this feature IRL but do not currently in game. As unlike the other aircraft that already have it, it would lead to a far more unstable flight model with very little beneficial gain to gameplay.
So for the time being at least, its not planned for any aircraft outside of those that have it. Naturally this may change in the future.

As we have already answered, its intended for the aircraft that have this feature currently. Its not classified as a bug or something reportable unless a developer has confirmed it as such. The F-2 report was accepted on this basis currently whilst the aircraft is being tuned.

is the Baz M radar change intended and backed by evidence? werent there reports made a little while ago to bring it on par with the other F-15C’s?
All of my F-2 hype sapped in one go is pretty wild tbh (I forgot its a Japanese aircraft in the Jap TT I suppose)
Is a full devblog planned for the fuel dumping mechanic?
If not, do you know what the planned minimum fuel dump is?
Is it set to a per aircraft basis and accuarate to real-life? (such as the Harriers only being able to dump fuel from their wing tanks)
or is it going to all fuel or down to min fuel (30%)?
