[Stona_WT 72,761]

Ground vehicles

• A bug has been fixed where the UAV for ground vehicles was enabled by pressing the same button as in the infantry battles.
• White exhaust on AI vehicles has been fixed.
• M247 — elevation angles of the commander’s sight have been increased from -10…+20 to -10…+60 degrees. Source: TM 9-1230-202-20-1
• VCC-80/30 — due to the cannon’s selective feed, over lengthy belt changes has been fixed.
• QN506 — armouring of the commander’s sight has been added (rеport)
• QN506 — a bug with overestimated armour values of the tank’s top has been fixed (report)
• QN506 — QN502 missiles now can be fired whilst in motion.

Aircraft

• AIM-54A, AGM-114B, AGM-114K, PARS 3 LR, AKD-9, AKD-10, AS-30L, L-UMTAS, ZT-6, Kh-25, Kh-25ML, Kh-29L, Kh-29T — fixed delay of the vertical proportional navigation guidance for targets above the missile
• AGM-114B, AGM-114K — autopilot has been adjusted, missile accuracy for small targets has been increased.
• AGM-114B — explosive weight has been reduced from 6.4 to 5.688 kg.
• AGM-114K — explosive weight has been increased from 6.45 to 6.685 kg.
• MiG-21F-13 — ballistic calculator for cannons has been added.
• Shackleton MR.Mk.2 — guidance angles of the front turret have been fixed (report).
• Javelin F.(A.W.) Mk.9 — a bug has been fixed with the incorrect position of the muzzle flash on cannons in the 2x 30mm ADEN plus 4x Firestreak missiles.
• Z-19, Z-19E — a bug has been fixed where the MFD missed the radar screen while toggling modes.
• F-105D — incorrect weight of the chaff pods has been fixed (report).
• Incorrect position of the launch flash of missiles has been corrected. Previously the missile launch appeared behind the aircraft.
• A bug has been fixed where IR seekers might lock on the empty space instead of an enemy aircraft (report).
• PBY-5A (USSR), BV 238 — incorrect positioning of the crew has been fixed.
• A bug has been fixed where VTOL aircraft had “Hover on” indication after respawn or reloading on the airfield.
• RWR will detect radar lock precisely accounting enemy radar antenna radiation patterns. RWR will also detect radar illumination for SARH missiles with a wider beam if it presents. This will allow aircraft flying near the target the enemy radar is tracking, to now receive a radar lock warning if the enemy SARH missile can re-aim on them.
• Harrier GR.7 — a bug has been fixed where the IRST pod might lose the target due to change of the nose targeting optics position. IRST of the nose optics has been removed.

Thats nice bit of realism being added.

I hope this also fixes the bug, where the IR lock circle disappears for a second after initial lock.

Are you sure that the drag is not decreased , the missile is so much better now

[NAYEONnaise 1,936]

any chances that FnF ATGMs will be fixed from their heavily bugged state? (i,e. QN2010DD missiles)

Is there some reason I just can't figure out as to why the "To Battle!" button was renamed to . . . . "Launch!"? . . .  . hard to se why this was changed . . . lol
I know it's a small thing, and I am not being petty about it, just curious is all . . .  can't understand why it needed "fixing" . . .  Ack!

[Thug Shaker Actual 225]

Just want to say thank you for the fixes and changes!

 

But in case I need to add content, like NAYEONnaise said, will there be a plan to look at improving the flight characteristics and travel to target performance of FnF missiles? They seem to travel sporadically at times and oftentimes dive into the ground

Does someone else got a buggy commander view with the QN-506? Since this update the commander view don't follow the turret rotation and i can't look around with commander view. In addition if i try to look in this view, it is "hopping" to random location or it is fixed.

[Gerhard_bar_ 85]

is kfir c.7 flight model getting patched? pulling aoe mach .75-1 rips plane almost everytime

[kkang2828 1,446]

@Stona @Smin1080p Could you please ask the devs to explain WHY THE HELL bluewater naval keeps getting ignored in BR changes, despite continuous player feedback about certain ships? You at least make a pretense of listening to us on air and ground BRs, but naval doesn't even get a single statement. WHY?

 

Also is there any news on getting custom hangars working again?

When can they fix the RP economy in SB EC as well the aircraft AG gun CCIP not working in cockpit view. Makes it impossible to hit ground targets in EC

Not exactly super thrilled that the z19e keeps going up.  Paid for it at a certain br and now it doesnt flow with my 10.7 ztz99 line up.

 

Well done on most other changes tho.
