November 25, 200817 yr How does the climb rate value for an aircraft work? Also, I noticed that the climb rates for some aircraft are markedly more than the others. i.e. F-22, Eurofighter, Cheetah C. Is this a mistake?

Is this a mistake? Its an inactive database field and inoperative in the code, i.e. climb rate is not reflected in game play. When you see markedly different numbers, its usually because I've entered more realistic climb rate figures (despite their inoperative nature) in more recently added aircraft.

If this field was operative it would represent meters/second that an aircraft could climb, as it is written in the annexes of the game. So if F-15 climbs at 15000 m/min, it would be (15000/60) 250 meters per second. CV32 said it was inoperative. But as an aircraft doesn´t climb always at full rate with full afterburners I think game designers divided the total amount by 5 to represent this fact at all aircraft models. So F-15 would have a climb rate of (250/5)=50 meters/second. More or less.
