MOST OP PREMIUM IN YEARS - Harrier GR.1 in War Thunder - OddBawZ
Рет қаралды 100,380
Күн бұрынThe Harrier GR.1 is insanely powerful just due to the SRAAMS alone. The fact this plane has one of the most insane trust values in all of War Thunder, really makes it difficult to deal with when there multiple Harriers in a game at one time.
The Harrier GR1 is fast, climbs incredibly quickly and can manoeuvre well enough to get behind most opponents. In a 1v1, the Harrier will definitely suffer. However, this is rarely the case in War Thunder.
The Harrier GR.1 in War Thunder is equipped with 4 SRAAM missiles. The SRAAMS are short range missiles but they're insanely manoeuvrable. Launched at slow opponents or opponents that are turning into you, they will rarely ever miss.
In my own opinion, the British Harrier in War Thunder is one of the most overpowered premium vehicles Gaijin has ever added to the game.

Standard Gajin MO: 1. Add new premium vehicle to the game that practically beats almost anything at it's tier in order to drive sales of said vehicle. 2. Wait a couple of months for the people who are most likely to buy it to have done so, and then finally nerf or balance after the fact. 3. Repeat.

Hey Odd, The acceleration from a standstill is legit, got to remember this thing can hover so it has a TWR notably higher than 1:1, it could literally take off like a rocket if it wanted to so it makes sense how quick it gets off the line. There’s an interesting video from DCS that compares a bunch of after burning stuff with the Harrier in a drag race and it holds 1st place for something like 5 miles before the supersonics manage to catch up. It weighs less than half as much as a Phantom and has around 2/3 the level of thrust. That engine is basically from an airliner with sweeping nozzles attached, it’d be better used powering something massive rather than a tiny fighter. The Harrier is basically just a real life meme.
@cerperalpurpose 3 жыл бұрын

@Alexander Ortiz Why do the ill-informed always lump Jews in with Communists? Marx hated his Jewish heritage with a passion and was a sworn Atheist. The Soviets hated the Jews just a little less than the Nazis, and even then they threw "capitalist jews" into the Gulags with all of the other political dissidents. No, Gaijin is just Russia's version of Electronic Arts, only they don'y even bother lying about or denying their greed. They just censor everyone who gives *real* criticism on their forums and throw premium vehicles like the Harrier in players' faces. And the mentally inept WT community just eats it up like the "useful idiots" they are.

Funny thing is, the Harrier GR1 was never wired for any kind of air to air missiles at any time, so I don't know what led to the idea of making the GR1 the premium aircraft with the OP missile. Even the GR3 wasn't wired for Sidewinders until the Falklands War, which was quickly designed bodge job at that point that led to a very unfortunate accident at Stanley airfield where a missile was fired on the ground (no weight on wheels type safety switch involved in the Sidewinder mod) that led to injuries amongst the Royal Engineers and Welsh Guards. You would have thought the Sea Harrier FRS1 would have been the poster jet for a premium aircraft. An actual fighter capability with radar, raised canopy for visibility, 4x AIM-9L's (post war) and its combat record. (Technically speaking, the Sea Harrier is one of only 3 jet fighters do have shot down an enemy aircraft with zero losses in actual air combat).

Yep, the acceleration is incredible, it can maintain near mach speed with 60% or less throttle (also helps to prevent overheat), it can go supersonic and maintain and it seems to maintain energy (very low energy bleed) during turns and stuff.

9:25 That's me, thought I recognized that name! All the harriers are SUPER fun to fly, but them British SRAAMs are a little obscene at 9.3. Also, the AV-8A runs hotter than the GR. 1 it seems. Have to set throttle at ~90% in the AV, while I can let the GR sit at ~95-100%. other than engine temps they feel almost identical. Also save that wep for when you get low energy and you can just take off to orbit while everyone else stalls out under you.

Before this patch, the FGA.9 was top dog for most of 9.7. Now, I often find that most of the game is over before I even reach the AO simply bc the harriers just clean everyone with their SRAAMs. I can’t even say how many games I’ve won with 1 or 2 kills without firing my guns. Sabres were not much of a threat to me before but now, it’s a one sided turkey shoot with all the SRAAMs against America and Japan.

100% agree, they need to dumb down the thrust or change the accel curve. Make it a shorter curve, not a linear curve. A typical cruise is around 800 mph. Too easy to get to the top fast. Maybe they need to implement the real overheating of the engine... Always thought the US Harrier was faster. I suspect GR1 has bound to the BR 10.x area... or at least slow it down and make it similar to the Hunter at 9.7. Great review and content as always.

GAIJIN RECIPE FOR SUCESS: 1- Release a broken Premium plane that is way too OP for it's BR. 2- Sell loads of it to it's supporters. 3- Get everybody else pissed at such plane buyers . 4- Once gaijin got everybody pissed with such OP Premium plane they did DESTROY the plane they have themselves released and sold to many users. This plane sits at BR 10.0 now. The Harrier GR.1 is still OKAY in Arcade Battles against the F4's and MIG 21's . In Realistic Battles this plane is a FLYING BRICK, it won't turn, it's sraams are short range and useless against supersonics as these can easily outrun sraams . Anyone who spent money at the Gr.1 and tries to play RB is legit pissed at gaijin.

I've got the GR1 and I've been messing around getting used to the VTOL. Every time I nose up in VTOL the thrusters automatically adjust to stay pointed straight at the ground rather than down relative to the plane which makes slowing down really hard for me. How did you get the vectoring to not auto adjust when you nosed up around 13:40?

I'm pretty sure the acceleration is indeed realistic because it like 85 kn (more on the GR.3) of thrust and it's a very small and light plane. It can't go supersonic in level flight because of the engine's low exhaust velocity.

Just me splitting hairs here but the thrust and incredible acceleration of the Harrier GR. 3 is pretty realistic because the Harrier in order to help VTOL capabilities with a half decent load it has a wild thrust to weight of 1.7 on an empty load and 0.8 with a maximum load easily enabling these high accelerations and fast maneuvering assisted by thrust vectoring.
