Wait?

So this is a reportable issue?

So we need to work on one for the harrier then. They are massively too hot

How it was measured??
Nvm I thought it was some player report ;)

Probably they will aspect some reports.

@Smin1080p_WT What documents are needed for getting other aircraft a reduced IR signature?

The Harrier’s at the moment can barely flare an R-60M fired at long range if they are at a lower airspeed due to their inversed thrust curves and IR signatures being based mostly upon thrust

Sources such as Sharkey Ward show just how hard the Harrier’s could be to lock onto an aircraft with an IR missile and is supported by other authors such as Paul Tremeling

The exhaust configuration below the wing was well known for reducing and dissipating the IR signature of the harrier. Whilst I know much of this cant be implemented until a full IR signature overhaul to add things like the directional exhausts found on helis. But we are desperate for some form of mitigation for this problem. Harriers can barely survive lower BR rear-aspect IR missile ike R-60s and Aim-9Es. Its impossible to do anything against anything with IRCCM and forget trying to use something like the Harrier Gr7 against an IRIS-T SLM

whenever you want you fix the broken flares that are literal cheats against any type of non irccm missiles and makes any plane with flare literally cheated against planes without flares.

Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you 🙏

my face when flares do their literal purpose, and IRCCM does its job also,

Can we get this change for the F-111A and F-111F please?

The AA on air sim convoys needs to be fixed. It’s way too powerful compared to the other objectives

they don’t work as well irl, especially not low calibers and early flares. Here, i’ve seen aim9bs pulling way over their g limits to try catching a flare at 90° angle. Also since when do flare work when they aren’t in the detection range of the ir seeker? It’s just bugged.

Yup. Actual good buff for F-5E.

Now time for some F-5 nerfs. Like dropping its STR by about 2°/s and significantly increasing its IR signature

That reminds me, I saw in the datamines they lowered a stat related to IT signatures for the Su-25s, I wonder if they could do that for the F-5s and F-14s

impossible to spawn in a match. I got “no available respawn base”. i can only back to the hangar just to have a 8 min crew lock. Cool. As usual good job
