So the BOL’s on the GR4 are a little buggy. Had to restart the game in order to get it to recognise the extra countermeasures and the spawn menu/loadout screen only seems to support 2 countermeasure sliders right now. If you run BOL+BOZ+TERMA then one of them is gonna be left out of the menu.
Lol… typhoon still might have it OK with its radar as you can get 2bar narrow for some updates.
That french meme is even worse given what it should be.
Fox hunter from 80s stays the nonrussian quickest radar in the game.

What bug?
If you’ve spawned in with no flares, delete and remake the loadout
Um. Wat?

I found some pictures showing that the wingtips of Tornado F3 can also have the ability to mount Boz pods like Tornado GR1/GR4. Figure 1 was taken in 2003 and demonstrates the ability to mount two different pods simultaneously. Figures 2 show wingtip hangers that can mount pods.

In addition, two identical camera pods were also attached to this hanging point on the wing tip of the 1980s tornado f2 skyflash test and 2010s tornado f3 meteor test to prove the hanging point on the wing tip of gale f2/f3
In Figure 3, the left wing tip of the two tornado F3 aircraft is equipped with two camera pods, while the right wing tip of the aircraft is equipped with two Boz pods.

There is also a picture of the wingtip hanger
That’s not a BOZ pod

It’s not exactly a Boz pod but rather a towed radar Decoy (like on the Typhoon)
The other smaller one seems to be a phimat pod

Outboard you have Phimat at the top and TRD at the bottom, the TRD uses the housing of a BOZ-107 but it is a “Towed Radar Decoy” / ECM pod, and has non of the chaff and flare from the original BOZ-107.
F.3 lacks the BOZ-107 control panel to even communicate with the pod, could it be retro fit? Probably, was it? No.

But imagine a tornado F3 with 2x BOL, 2x Phimat and 2x BOZ 😋
Ability to turn gone.
I think the 1632 large calibre chaff would make up for that :D

reminds me of the video of the old red neck trying to get a snake to bite him but wont because of the moonshine. who needs to add ecm when you can act like a second sun for all radar missiles on the map.

I don’t understand what they did to this airplane. It now flies worse than the F-111, instantly reaching critical angles of attack at any speed and losing all its speed. And then it can’t regain it—feels like its engines are just dumping kerosene somewhere. How could the Europeans adopt such a plane into service, and as an interceptor, no less? It’s inferior to the Phantom in every way, literally.
How Tornado performed IRL compared to how it performs in WT are 2 completely different things. Was great IRL.
