Sea Harrier FRS.51 LUSH - Raging Monsoon

I want to see another harrier in this game. Every harrier is marvellous to see.

Meanwhile, I am just worried about the stock grind of FRS.51 will be tough, though.
Thanks to the ridiculously, unhistorically underrated current FM of the Harrier 1 airframe. :|

I think I saw a Topic about that somewhere else in this forum.

if that is fixed, then flying with a Magic-2 harrier will be truly magical.

Yeah, All Harriers need MASSIVE buffs.

I actually think the FRS51 would make the optimal ARH premium for Britian.

The upgraded one with Derby and israel radar (same as Kfir C.10 one)?

+1, another majorly desired aircraft for me!

Also, I think this is what the LUSH’s cockpit looks like

It is the LUSH’s cockpit, you can tell by easily seeing the RWR which is the only internal difference one can see

The FRS.51 should go at 12.7 having only 2 Fox 3s and 4 missiles max

So is the Radar raster display and other radio and Nav equipment.

Forgot that the radar display was replaced a MFD

I would personally buy this is it was added as a premium at 12.3 or so.
Only if they actually fixed the Harriers massive lack of performance in game however.
The new stat card and performance should read and be buffed too
Top speed: 620 Knots at sea level (Guns+ammo, 5 pylons, 2/3 internal fuel)
Max alt: 50,000 feet
Turn Time: 25.7 seconds (Guns+ammo, 5 pylons, 2/3 internal fuel)
Climb rate: 122 M/S or 24,000 feet per minute

I would love to see this in the next few months.

+1 would be an awesome sidegrade for the harrier FA2 getting derbies instead of amraams but gaining HMD and a more modern radar

Where did you hear/see that? From what I can find, it didn’t. If it is true, is it a HMD like on the Kfir C.10 or a missile aimer like on Russian jets?

Sheesh, that would put that Sea Harrier in a BR that would be very uncomfy, not lush at all…

Just imagine against what types you would be pitched in that old airframe. A good radar and Fox 3’s can only get you that far…

Wow imagine if it actually had its irl flight model and your whole argument is pointless lol. Waiting for / if gaijin actually ever fixes the Harrier flight performance is a whole other question.

It would be very capable if it had its IRL STR ITR and its incredible low to medium speed nose pointing ability. Even better than what the F-18 is capable of. Except in game it’s limited to a whole 16 degrees AOA with mouse aim yet the flight manuals say 40 degrees AOA before the thing even experiences buffet.

Gaijin did not cook with there little buff last update and it should have its 110% thrust when only at 100% throttle meaning it’s STR climb and acceleration are still quite far behind what they should be.

TLDR: the sea harrier if even somewhat corrected in flight performance, would downright outclass all the other modernized 3rd gen’s in the game when at lower altitudes. By this I mean even up at 25,000 feet it’s still on equal footing with the MiG-21F
