British Weapon Systems - Technical data and discussion

So anyone else of the belief given that we are likely getting very close to release that the GBT 155 will be released with tue current RoF/BR?

NGL Its massively putting me off buying it, as its a preorder premium and been “ready earlier” given the devblog release date, it feels like this is the intended RoF now and it will be, by far, the worst SPG of its BR bracket due to the insane reload time after the first stage rack is used.

Doubt it. AS90 now has first stage ammo just like the SP155. they just havent coded the different reload speeds for the stages yet.

Im not sure if anyone already mentioned it, but the AS90 has had it’s ready rack modelled properly, it’s now 2 rounds

reload rates on the AS90/GBT arent done yet

I mean the AS90’s reload rates are pretty accurate to real life

The GBT however isn’t so we will see how they model it then

It’s a bit ridiculous that the vertical and horizontal hydraulic drives of the AS90 are modelled as one unit despite being completely seperate.

that hydraulic pump is also not a pump

its electrical power.

I dont know about the ram to elevate/depress the gun, cant find images to confirm it properly, i assume its wrong though. very wrong

The pump at the top seems somewhat correct according to the AS90 brochures from Vickers

The horiztonal drive however as you said doesnt seem to be hydraulic

where are those diagrams from? as id like to use them to bolster a bug report i just made

https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/UChm9ZThyyjT

what does that mean

There was always a reason (in some form) it should be in game

He’ll bring the report to the dev’s attention (I.E remind them it exists)

They’re from the VSEL AS90 brochure, I dont own it but you can find the pages on Ebay

A second as well, but that one is basically impossible to read

It states the gun drive is electric, but also states the speed should be a bit slower than ingame, so you’ll have to pick your poison lol

Dumb bombs dropped from the buccaneer are appearing inside and glitching out above the fueselage/wings again causing them to miss the target.

Don’t forget the really slow release.

@Gunjob now that new pantsir is getting the mixed missile system setup any chance of a nudge to the devs about getting the same on the stormer for its martlets

Has been a thing for all bombers for about 3 years now mate, nothings gonna change.

No,

This seems to be a bug specific to the Buccaneer’s bomb bays, and can only be replicated in normal battles.

I cannot replicate this on any 8of the other aircraft I own.

Most bug reports of this seem to indicate the player is pitching down, but this seems to be that the bomb bay of the buccaneer has its ejection force inverted for some reason.

Again, this only happens in live battles, and occurs 100% of the time there only.

Ive played bombers regularly since 1.27
And I also played a lot of the buccaneer S2 and didn’t have this issue at the time it was released, spaded it and played alot of it in GRB.

Anyone know why Stormer AD lost it’s scouting?

Cuz gaijin removed it.
