I guess i see why you say that, but i really hope they take their time for such aircraft, same for 5th gen as it would be the rafale variant that would have the less problems fighting a f35 or whatever stealth aircraft and could be said to be the closest for a fair fight against them before an hypothetical super rafale.
And it would probably be not too far from a kf-21.
Thats never going to happen. Rafale cannot have the best short range missiles. The best Radar one of the best Flight models and the best BVR missile.
You imbalance the game which is why Gaijin actioned the 8 MICA load option but not its accurate range
This is Gajin we are talking about though
A whole new plane to grind for better missiles seems like how it will go from my view
I believe Kishin is saying that the MICA EM’s range will be “fixed” once other nations receive missiles that still outranges a fixed MICA EM.
It’s a balancing act.
Why is the Typhoons radar poorer than the F-15E?
Why cant the Typhoon carry more Aim120s?
Gaijin maintain “balance” by limiting aircraft potential (for the moment)
F-15E is still the BVR king, because of it’s Radar and the ability to carry 8 120s.
If the Typhoon had the correct Radar modeled it would supercede and invalidate the F-15E
Rafale if MICAS had the range they should have would invalidate the Typhoon and the F-15E
Rafale is modeled as the king of medium to short range.
Su-27 has the most missiles and one of the best brawlers/death stars.
I dont see a fix to the MICA range until other nations receieve the 120 and R-77 upgrades.
Who said this was a balance limitation currently?
Because the only proof of these pylons being able to use AMRAAM is in a presentation and has never been shown to be mounted ever
Finally :D
great timing i just wanted to ask what they changed on the mfds
i dont have it yet
sadge
means nothing but funny to see the MICA IR in the loadout
Aren’t the MICAs with a red top supposed to be MICA IR?
Because if the Typhoon had it’s 8 120s and had it’s proper Radar it would surpass the F-15E in close range and BVR.
And Su-27 has fictious dual R-77 mounts.
There isnt a need for more than 6 Meteors and 2 IRIS-T/ASRAAM.
There was a proposed dual Meteror pylon designed for Typhoon but we havent seen it.
We have seen the render from Eurofighter GmbH showing 12 Meteor configuration.
While i admit SU 27SM dual mounts that should be only for SU35 is BS, EFT with only 6 AMRAAM + AIM9M performs very good despite having a completely broken CAPTOR M while SU27SM struggle even with 12 missiles. It’s just BIAS and aa way to not make russia irrelevant in ARB, even SU30 won’t save russia and gaijin knows that so they apply BIAS law. And tbf im’ not against the BIAS law if it avoid a nation, no matter which it is, to become irrelevant.
Typhoon is perfectly serrviceable with a Radar overhaul there are not a huge amount of complaints that can be made. Would we like a better compromise with Brimstone or even Brimstone 2 certainly.
PIRATE detection buff (I know all IRST are modelled this way)
I think SU-30 will be pushed hard I could even see the R-77-1 being added to it and the better Radar.
I then see an F-15 with an AESA Radar being added.
I just hope they fix the Radar on Typhoon.
I don’t think that’s the reason it doesn’t have 8 AIM-120s, if that’s the case is there an open report on it where Gaijin is delaying implementing it? Typically it is believable that Gaijin is delaying adding/fixing something because it would be overpowered if there’s an open report on it.
Typhoon like Rafale came out before Christmas we are now middle of February.
Gaijin have patched and fixed many issues but they have ignored the Typhoon Radar. It received a little buff which did help but in TWS mode it’s so slow to update. In Gaijins metrics the Typhoon is performing fine and it is. Why rush to fix something when players are doing well in it.
SMIN said some patches and fixes will be implemented on the next major update.
March, March is when we will see a new Russian Su-30 and a new USA aircraft maybe two.
Like the MICAs range “bug” Typhoons Radar has been accepted yet it hasnt been actioned.
ISE Standard =/= F.3R
