never mind... my bad, solved

 

 

 

is it normal i don't have a hud display in the Jaguar A?

there's just the glass...

There is a basic headup display normally : do you have the "epee" when choosing a non guided weapon ?

About the fuel tank cells :

 

I don't have specific datas about the Jaguar tanks.

Only thing is 5225 kg (from wikipedia : l ) (wrong! lol)

 

Just using the min/max extent values from the data.ini file, I find

(1000 liters = 1m x 1m x 1m ; 1 liter = 0.76 kg)

 

FuselageFC1 = 1186.15 L -> 901.47 kg (edited to 1228.34kg)

FuselageFC2 = 348.18 L -> 264.62 kg (edited to 360.58kg)

FuselageFC3 = 348.18 L -> 264.62 kg (edited to 360.58kg)

FuselageFC4 = 212.24 L -> 161.3 kg (edited to 219.8kg)

LeftWingFC = 564.27 L -> 428.84 kg (edited to 584.35kg)

RightWingFC = 564.27 L -> 428.84 kg (edited to 584.35kg)

 

Giving a total = 2449.69 kg (internal) (now 3338kg)

 

About the drop tanks :

 

Each auxiliary fuel tank is given for 956 kg

So 2449.69 + (956x3) = 5317.69 kg (internal + external)

Which is above 5225 kg, but quite close.

 

Change the drop tank values from 956 kg to 925.1 kg and all is fine... : ) (edited to 948kg)

It would mean that the empty drop tank now weights 75 kg or 165 lbs.

 

Just guessing...

 

I edited the post to show more accurate values.

It's not a fix, it's just my guess.

Wikipedia did not prove a very reliable source for the Jaguar A, we found a lot of mistakes and must systematically recheck with other sources.

But still, you make  avalid point which is worth rechecking.

Hello

 

I confirm we need to take a weight of 7500 kg

7000 kg is the empty weight, but this is not the data we have to input :

We must use the operating empty weight, adding some load such as pilot weight, equipments ... => 7500 kg

 

I will check for fuel tank

Thank you everybody for your warm welcome of the Jaguar.

I will try to check carefully your remarks as a proof of your interest for the plane.

 

As to internal fuel, I have 4200 l (ie : 3200 kg)

Yes, thank's for pointing this out : current max fuel load is 9200 lbs, should be 7100

Indeed, it's a common problem to all Jaguars
