Interesting particle effects from dust cloud when flying low (F/A-18)

:wave: Thank you using the Bug section, using templates provided will greatly help the team reproducing the issue and ease the process of fixing it.

Are you using Developer Mode or made changes in it?

No

Brief description of the issue:

When flying fast with the F/A-18 close to the ground and pulling up, the particles that I assume are connected to the dust cloud seem to have some wireframe meshes attached to them. Developer mode has not been enabled at all during this play session, and in the settings Dev mode shows as OFF. It is entirely possible that this just is a side-effect of me having had developer mode enabled in an earlier session days earlier, but I still find it weird.

I’m seeing this as well… after some testing, it appears that this bug is linked specifically to the F/A-18. The P-51, for example, kicks up an actual dust cloud.
