Hi guys

I wanted to know if the game measures IAS or TAS speed for planes or even both and if weapons speed is also IAS?

Also i wanted to know what the game factors IAS does it account for temperature and compression or simply by altitude?

I am  aware some aircraft could display both but im talking the game display on the lower left corner

The info box in the corner shows KIAS.
If you enable debug output with DisplayDebug=true in HUDDATA.INI, then you get a lot of additional infos, including KTAS. You can circle with ALT-D through the various display modes.
I assume that TK implemented a model of the standard atmosphere that gives the air density at any given altitude and from there IAS is calculated.
