its a shame but you could still go there and catch some b1 lancers
It looks like a Hurricane Mk.IIc tbh
Guys hypothetically what would be the battle rating of a Sea Harrier FRS.1 but with only AIM-9G and not AIM-9L?
9.7, maybe 10.0 if you really think dual AIM-9 racks deserve .3 over a vanilla AV-8A/GR.3

Interesting, thanks
Stock 9Gs is why I haven’t touched the Sea Harriers, at least the Thai AV-8S in the Japanese tree gave stock 9Ls

Whenever I turn on my shower, I always get hit by a massive lag spike and my plane dies near immediately. Could be short lenght radio waves emitted by its electric wiring be the culprit?

Wha—…? I just don’t even understand how. Do u have an electric shower?

Don’t play your PC in the bathtub then

I would advise not taking your computer into the shower. They tend not to be waterproof

you cant do nothing, pray to the snail and protect your computer from your monsters parent who are trying to steal your GE, you must defend the almighty snail.

… what?
what?
If we are being serious here, as someone who knows a tiny bit more about particle physics than the average Joe, no, electrical wires would not cause interference of your game. This is because electricity would only be causing the flow of electrons, not photons, which are the carrier particles of radio waves. Not only is that true, but if they were emitting photons, they may also be in the microwave range or infrared range. If this were true; your computer would also be hit by a lag spike when you turn on a TV or radio.
It’s also very fun to have the mental image of some guy dogfighting while half naked as they get ready to have a shower.
Of course the most important reason why this is false is because War Thunder players don’t take showers.

If you are being serious, the only thing I can imagine that MIGHT affect your connection, heavy emphasis on the might, is if your shower/hot water uses an electrical heating source, drawing a very large amount of power at once and disrupting the power supply to your router, causing packet loss.
If you really want to make sure it is something to do with you shower/water, what you can do is, Open CMD as administrator and type " ping 1.1.1.1 -t " you will begin to see entries such as:
“Reply from 1.1.1.1: bytes=32 time=14ms TTL=57”
“Reply from 1.1.1.1: bytes=32 time=14ms TTL=57”
“Reply from 1.1.1.1: bytes=32 time=14ms TTL=57”
Then, turn on your hot water, if you then start to see:
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
This is direct evidence that your shower is in fact somehow contributing to packet loss by visually showing you that you are unable to ping the domain 1.1.1.1 which is in the simplest terms, packet loss, as the data you are sending is never received. If you turn on the hot water, and 1.1.1.1 continues to receive bytes of data, then you know the shower is not causing the packet loss and the source is elsewhere. If possible, use Ethernet or at the very least 5Ghz instead of 2.4Ghz as 2.4 is especially vulnerable to interference.

Conduct scientific research. Many confounding factors, test them individually and find which is responsible. Need a minimum of quite a few trials to have confidence in the result, but informally, you can just do a few.
I am just guessing without any basis: it may be due to high electrical load caused by the electric water heater and related devices. Alternatively, the water itself could be causing impedance/interference. Not necessarily the water in the shower itself, it could also be the pipes, or more likely, the reservoir of the water heater.
In more detailed terms, the difference in the impedance of water and the impedance of air(switching mediums) causes significant attenuation of the Wifi signal . I would advise you to switch to Ethernet to reliably avoid such problems that come with wireless transmission.
