Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

god that render looks ugly, i think its how it feels like the tail is just off.

I know it sound dumb and will probably turn out completly different looking but the f47 render recently has such a cool futury vibe.

how does gaijin model heat on aircraft? aircraft thrust?

isnt that from all 4 exausts being counted as seperate engines or did they fix that.

I think it is its own coefficient in the game and each air craft has it set to something corresponding to its irl IR signature

Yes, and harrier is modeled as having 4 separate engines.

4 independent heat signatures all close together and a very high TWR.

There is already an accepted report in, the harriers IR sig needs to be dropped 10X over.

No, that isn’t right.

yeah do not know why lol they had so many work arounds but they just decided nah the engines are all the sun

A free TOG? Don’t mind if I do.

Interesting. Couldn’t you theoretically make a report showing that Harrier has a higher IR signature despite having lower thrust than some aircraft in-game by using IR missile seeker lock-range?

They didn’t have these in 2020. Today yes.

Also unfortunately the performance of the Harrier was basically unknown until I started autismo looking into it.
