Update 2.51.0.31

Aircraft

  • A bug that made it impossible to lock on to a radar target from the TWS HDN mode has been fixed. (Report).
  • XF5U-1 — the flight model has been updated, L/D ratio at high AoA has been increased. Engine performance has been adjusted. (Report). Gross weight has been reduced relative to early specification (the prototypes had less fuel and no ADI).
  • F-15C Golden Eagle — the sizes of the radar search zones in TWS mode have been adjusted: 15°x15° → 30°x15°, 30°x10° → 70°x15°, 60°x5° → 70°x30°.
  • Su-30MK2 AMV, F-15C Golden Eagle, F-16AM (Norway), Tornado IDS SLE, JH-7, JH-7A Prototype — these aircraft are now correctly recognized by radars with target recognition by radar signature ability (Non-Cooperative Target Recognition (NCTR)).
  • ☢F-111F — a bug where the name of the countermeasures in the stat card was displayed as a text key has been fixed. (Report).
  • ☢Su-24M — a bug where the name of the countermeasures in the stat card was displayed as a text key has been fixed. (Report).

Naval Vessels

  • IJN Myoko — a bug that prevented torpedo resupply from starting has been fixed.

Locations and Missions

  • A bug that caused excessive fog in naval and air missions has been fixed. This fix improves long-range visibility.

Matching

Graphics

  • A bug where cockpit glazing would take on a green tint when ray tracing was enabled for transparent surfaces has been fixed.

Speaking of nuke planes, can I suggest that the Tornado IDS ASSTA.1 be replaced with the IDS SLE for Nuclear duties? @Smin1080p_WT
Since it is a lot more equal to its counterparts with the MAWS pod. The AIM-9Li-1 can be replaced by a normal 9L in the nuclear strike version

No RT fix?

I am once again asking dev to fix CLAWS radar rotation/scan speed please

AN/MPQ-64 Radar Scan Rate Too Slow // Gaijin.net // Issues

bug report got accepted 5 months ago when the CLAWS was still in dev server and there has been no change at all :(

i dont wanna nag this hard but missing 30 virtual scan speed is significant (30 in-game virtual scan speed vs 60 irl).

Finally, now it loses much less energy while turning

XF5U-1 getting buff now seem really good let’s see what going happen to it

Chieftain 900 is still limited to 48kph instead of the advertised 52kph on it’s devlog

While the Flapjack does feel like its fixed its still outclassed at its current br. I feel like a br decrease would benefit the plane greatly, If your wanting to keep it at its current br, It needs the better engines. (for Air RB)

5.3 is a very harsh BR, the uptiers to 6.3 are just insane. Its 2 different classes of vehicles that is the prime highlight of needing BR decompression. I agree it needs a BR reduction though, but no more than 5.0, as 4.0 aircraft would still be ok against it, but most 3.7 aircraft would be too far outclassed.

What have you done to the air arcade gamemodes? I’ve played 20 matches today, in hopes to work on my newly purchased bombers. But alas, all 20 of 20 matches have so far been air domination. What am i to bomb? How am i to play the bombers?
Have you removed the other gamemodes? Why?
I’m now quitting a match, after it loads and i see that it’s domination.

Do what must be done : dogfight in a bomber (please don’t XD).

2 years since m735 got nerfed because of a erroneous bug report
