LotusDragon Posted September 19, 2019 Posted September 19, 2019 I was searching the pocket guide for the engine specifications but I could not find it. Which engine uses the Harrier in DCS? Is it the e F402--RR--408B or an earlier version? I am asking this, because I wanted to calculate the range with the natops performance charts. Thank you for any help in advance :smilewink:
Holbeach Posted September 19, 2019 Posted September 19, 2019 (edited) It's the 408 series. .. Edited October 1, 2019 by Holbeach ASUS 2600K 3.8. P8Z68-V. ASUS ROG Strix RTX 2080Ti, RAM 16gb Corsair. M2 NVME 2gb. 2 SSD. 3 HDD. 1 kW ps. X-52. Saitek pedals. ..
Nealius Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 Just a heads up, the range from NATOPS won't match our Harrier. The fuel consumption is excessively high in DCS.

Harlikwin Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 Really? I'm thrilled to hear that, I thought it was a problem with my engine management! Yeah, there was an earlier thread on it if you look. I think Hollbeach started it? Or maybe its buried in his epicly long bombing thread?

BEHill75 Posted January 25, 2020 Posted January 25, 2020 (edited) Having worked on both late model F402-RR-406 and the 408 Pegasus, I would say the particular model of N/A would be F402-RR-406, transitioning to the 408 (probably not the 408A and definitely not the 408B). When I was going through my MOS school at MCAS Cherry Point in 1995, we were one of the first classes of mechanics to fiddle with the F402-RR-408. At that time most of the fleet was still N/A Harriers. Over the next few years, the fleet would convert to almost exclusively Radar Attack birds (II Plus). By early 2000's there were few, if any 406 engines left in the fleet. Edited January 25, 2020 by BEHill75
