  • Most of my videos are edited, however these 12 minutes deserve to be seen in full - no editing. Hopefully it highlights why the Harrier is so devastating at ground attack in a hostile PvP environment.
    It was was supposed to be a quick flight on the 80s Contention server (no JDAMs), the sortie to quickly fire off 4 Mavericks (as there was significant enemy air cover) to help take out a nearby strategically important FARP before re-arming to take out 4 more targets. Usually defended by a dozen units including Trucks, a couple of armoured units and some light AAA, it turned out that Redfor had recognised it's importance and set up significant defences including 3 SA6 sites and SA8 and an SA6 to supplement the Zu-23s, BMPs and T-72s already there. Those defences were no match for the mighty Harrier even with only 4 Mavericks, 2 Sidearm and a gun. Given 10 LJDAMs or APKWS the devastation would have been higher still.

    I tried to watch the video, but it was unwatchable with all the alarms constantly going off.

    In other words, "the inability of opposing human players to provide a realistic challenge made it easy to overcome the meager threat scenario and made the Harrier look like a beast to an audience unfamiliar or new to the matter"
    Still certainly a fun flight though.

      I'm not sure 3 SA6's an SA8 SA9, several Zu23s and Human players in fighters is a meagre threat scenario. It's a threat scenario which kept around every other fighter at bay with the only ordnance being dropped in the general area being a GBU10 dropped by a Hornet which was shot down and the GBU hit an already dead T80 (the Hornets TPOD is so bad it's impossible to differentiate at distances over about 50 ft).

      It's a 7-8 mile per minute A-10 with a fairly (with practice) useable anti radiation capability. Add in the ability to pre plan and then drop 10 JDAMS in one pass it IS a beast ;)
