It seems that gaijin has forgotten that there are folders for vehicles that are different but not enough to justify investigating them in their entirety again.
The new EFs are identical in everything except the new AESA radar, the only thing that changes from the one we already have is that it has 2 more AIM-120s, BUT the current one also receives this update on the dev server.
So I don’t see the point in having to research the same plane a second time (420,000 RP), they should be in the same folder.
@Morvran I didn’t want to be right, but I told you the Typhoon update was gonna be a complete nothing burger. Gaijin is so out of touch, 420k RP for just a radar change.
CAPTOR-E + 2x more AMRAAM is exactly what the Typhoon has needed.
Just did a match and my god, having those extra AMRAAM is lovely.
Im hoping we can get more out of this update though
The grind is annoying, but its clearly setting the stage for ASRAAM/IRIS-T and/or Meteor sooner rather than later. It does mean we can do the bulk of the grind for that aircraft before they arrive, so when they do, we can hit the ground running.
Though a shame about the lack of bug reports that have been fixed. Especially BOL
Maybe for AirRB, but the Typhoon being limited to mostly a CAP role in GroundRB is still pretty garbage with how the game is currently played. Its still not enough to justify not having any IR guided munitions.
