RATS

Will the Reduced Arrestment Thrust system be correctly modeled for the B variant?

It would be great if you or someone describe the system, or direct to website info. So people like me knows what you are talking about. Thank you.

Pretty sure this is already in and working.

from mats:

An interesting sub-mode of the nozzle system on F110 engines is known as "RATS" (Reduced Arrestment Thrust System). Basically with weight on wheels and the arresting hook down RATS will cause the engine military thrust to be reduced by approximately 10 percent to prevent overstress to the shipboard arresting gear when landing on a ship. This doesn't really effect the nozzles, just the amount of thrust produced by the engine.

i think of no reason it wouldnt be modelled considering the scope of the module.

Not to second-guess your post probad, I am just a sucker for system info from the -1 (been beaten into me lol).

 

Edit: - Apologies, using an acronym with no description of it.. AFTC added.
