98abaile Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 It is what it is. I'd have preferred the British harrier over the American one, but as I said in the other thread I'd be happy with either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prowler111 Posted February 16, 2016 Author Share Posted February 16, 2016 Will you finish mirage before start working on harrier? I don´t even know why you are asking that,the Mirage work has not stopped in any way, and the Harrier will not interfere with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattebubben Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 (edited) ANy radar system in this bird? The variant we are getting (AV-8B Harrier II Night Attack) Did not have a radar it instead had Forward looking FLIR optic mounted in the nose. the AV-8B Harrier II Plus (The variant made soon after the Night attack) had the APG-65 radar (taken from F-18A aircraft when they where upgraded with the newer APG-73 radar) That gave it the abillity to use Aim-120 BVR missiles etc and also gave it Air-Ground radar modes instead of the FLIR (it could use Targeting pods like the Litening to make up for the loss of the FLIR). Im very happy with a AV-8B NA especially since we might get follow up variants later on (GR.7/9 and maby a AV-8B Plus) But i to look more forward to the A-7 then i do either a harrier II or the F-15E. But All in Due time i guess ^^. But any new Striker/attack aircraft is a good addition. Since im tired of the "Slow" brutes that are the A-10 and Su-25 (Harrier is not "Alot" faster then the Su-25 but still its more agile and feels quicker). Edit: i mistakenly confused the FLIR and the AN/ASB 19. The FLIR is mounted ontop of the nose with the AN/ASB 19 being the "thing" mounted in the nose.

Prowler111 Posted February 17, 2016 Author Share Posted February 17, 2016 Just a correction, the AV-8B Plus still sports the FLIR over the nose, it was never intended as a targeting device, but more as a NV system(as it exposes the IR image over the HUD). Read somewhere that Night Attack versions also used litening,in Bagram. will have to investigate on this Prowler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team Raptor9 Posted February 17, 2016 ED Team Share Posted February 17, 2016 (edited) @Prowler111 (or any of the devs, really) Are there any plans or talk (that you can speak of, obviously) about including American/British Harrier-capable ships in the future as part of the Harrier modules or as a "down-the-road" DLC? Example Ships: UK Invincible-class US Tarawa-class LHA US Wasp-class LHD Heck, it would be nice if you could drive some fuel/ammo trucks up to a pair of Harriers parked on a road to rearm/refuel :smilewink: I'm planning on buying any/all Harriers regardless.

King_Hrothgar Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Well, harriers should be FARP compatible. So there is that. Back on topic, thanks for the update and honesty Prowler. I'll always take a hard truth over being jerked around. In this case I'm not attached to either though, a harrier is a harrier as far as I'm concerned. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apapagos Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Bad news for F-15E people like me. Ill wait then. Good luck with harrier. bad news? what do you mean? I'm also waiting for the F-15E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bullfrog_ Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 bad news? what do you mean? I'm also waiting for the F-15E I think he means this: So the road map would be AV-8B Night Attack followed by the GR7/GR9 versions and hopefully the AV-8B Harrier II Plus after at the end. If Razbam is doing the Beagle, it may be post pone til these planes are done. If I had to pick between the two, it's Harrier all day. I'd kill for a Av-8B Plus, sorry F-15. But as someone who's been waiting for an AH-1 since Wags mentioned in a podcast in early 2013... I understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackLion213 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 If Razbam is doing the Beagle, it may be post pone til these planes are done. If I had to pick between the two, it's Harrier all day. I'd kill for a Av-8B Plus, sorry F-15. Plus, the F-15E is a really complicated module, possibly more complicated than the Hornet (excluding the need to develop carrier ops for the Hornet). Especially since it needs multi-crew support or some form of AI like the upcoming Tomcat. I remain optimistic that we will have a F-15E module in DCS, but I don't expect it soon. Big projects take time... On another note, having an AV-8B NA sounds excellent to me. As an american, I have a slight preference for the AV-8B, but I would gladly accept any form of Harrier. I am very thankful that Razbam is so straightforward/transparent about these issues. I really appreciate that! -Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vampyre Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 (edited) I think he means this: If Razbam is doing the Beagle, it may be post pone til these planes are done. And, in addition to that, the fact that the Mudhen uses both Lantirn and Sniper pods, neither of which are currently modeled in the sim, will push the module release to more than two years away. Thanks for the honest assessment Prowler. The AV-8B(NA) will be a great module and I look forward to your entire Harrier II line. Edited February 17, 2016 by Vampyre Truly superior pilots are those that use their superior judgment to avoid those situations where they might have to use their superior skills.
