Something wrong with turn performance

[totmacher]

Here sustain turn test AV8BNA in ver. 2.7.8.16140:
weight: 20947lbs, 4xAIM9, gun, sea level
maximun turn rate in this configuraion is 18deg/sec

instead 12deg/sec

 

you can see track file and tacview file in attach

turn perfomance of AV8BNA now even better than FA-18C_hornet

It almost looks like DCS harriers STR numbers match the real ITR numbers

Hi all, 

please do not post images from real world manuals newer than 1980

That seems to overperform sustained turn rate by 50% indeed with reference to rl docs.

This was reported a while ago and supposedly the FM is under review, but otherwise there haven't been any news.

Funny, this was reported as fixed in the changelog of 2.7.8.16140:

DCS AV-8B N/A by RAZBAM Simulations

Fixed:

• Right MPCD SYM switch not working
• Reversed MPCD day/night button animation
• Missing keybindings.
• TPOD IR polarity change forces video to wide FOV without change in symbology
• Countermeasures release command input is "stored" if release was inhibited, and executed later when possible.
• EHSD Map Ground track button not working 
• BORT Numbers.
• Turn rate performance (was previously overperforming in some conditions

I am starting to use the harrier for dogfighting.....please delete this thread!!!!!!!!!

12 dps is with the -406 motor in CBT thrust, which is listed as 99% RPM.  The -408 motor in CBT rating is 111%, higher than the -406 short lift wet by a large margin.  We don't have turn charts for a -408 powered harrier, so AFAIK the closest you could get to running the test is dropping RPM to 99%.

Some big changes ...

Which update did they fix the thrust?
