Features in the game
•Realistic acceleration
It may not be well known, but the air resistance in the simple planes is calculated in km/h, not m/s, so the drag is greater than it actually is. Therefore, at low speeds, it accelerates rapidly and immediately reaches the maximum speed. It also requires much more engine power than it actually is.Specifically, by setting the resistance value to 0.07716, it shows behavior close to reality. Please refer to the link below for details.

This time, by setting the resistance value of the main parts of this aircraft to the above value, we were able to make the thrust and weight thrust ratio the same as the real thing. Please enjoy the gradual acceleration.
——————————————————————
Remarks: Strictly speaking, this aircraft is a fictional aircraft. The Hunter F.4 operated by Sweden could only equip the AIM-9 on the outer pylons of both wings. It is true that in later years, an aircraft equipped with AIM-9 also appeared on the inside, so it is not an impossible modification, but it looks a little different from what was actually operated.

Trivia: The two "Hump" attached to the lower part of the fuselage are boxes for collecting the empty shells of the machine gun.

Hidden function: Try to have a dog fight with AI. You may be able to see the characteristic movements. Far is recommended for combat distance. Also, please use an aircraft loaded with missiles as an opponent.

Cool build, looks good for the part count and it even has a cockpit interior.
Loved the inertial camera, flying the plane from the pilot POV feels really authentic and smooth.
The gunsight could have had some more work for it to look less laggy.
Also, when you use the Trim command, it also actuates the vertical rudder.
The acceleration model is, indeed, great, even tho the decceleration part could have got more attention.
Overall cool build, it was a nice surprise.
Sick
This aircraft has changed the course of wars for my country...
Thank you for telling us about the post on the drag coefficient. This is gonna help a lot for replica builds
What I grind for in war thunder
beautiful work
i really enjoyed it i like it
Nice design!!
