colyoap Posted October 5, 2019 Posted October 5, 2019 This was mentioned by Wags months ago that the current flare count for the hornet was going to be fixed. Has this been forgotten or proven to be modeled correctly as-is? I see the Viper has 60 flares w/chaff.

colyoap Posted October 5, 2019 Author Posted October 5, 2019 What makes you say that? I don't remember seeing/reading that it will wait for the data cartridge.. seems like it should just be a simple value to change, no?

Tholozor Posted October 5, 2019 Posted October 5, 2019 (edited) Not exactly, the dispensers on the Hornet can only hold so many flare cartridges. The flares equipped on the Hornet right now take up a certain amount of space inside the dispensers, so they can't just increase the capacity, it wouldn't match the specifications of the dispenser. What they're doing is creating a new flare cartridge that takes up the correct amount of space. The Hornet has four dispenser units, each one has 30 slots for a total of 120. The flare cartridges take up 2 slots (this is the part that needs corrected based on the flare cartridge that ED currently has modeled), chaff takes up one, leading to a total of 30 flares (60 slots) and 60 chaff (60 slots). The current flare (MJU-7) is a square cartridge and only really used on Air Force birds (except the B-1), the legacy Hornet uses cylindrical cartridges (MJU-8).
