Eurofighter Typhoon (Germany) Dev Thread

If im understanding it correctly, its clear proof the EFT in WT is underperforming in supercruise, this is the screenshot from the bug report:

Note, the loadout in the pic has 2x 9L + 6x AMRAAM with NO fuel tanks, and is underperforming the document by M0.18

I’m almost certain interceptor configuration is 2x SRAAM 6x MRAAM and 2 fuel tanks.

Whats the source from?

as an native German, its correct
Abfangjäger are 2 words together

Abfang = can be translated to Intercepter
and Jäger = Fighter

More aircraft:
Dassault Mirage 2000: Mach 1.22.

Dassault Mirage F1C: Mach 1.22.

Yet Typhoon can’t even hit Lightning’s mach 1.1…

Well, I am not a native German speaker, although there were Russian Germans in my family a very, very long time ago)

And besides, in school and college (not institute or university, if we take European logic) I studied German in English lessons and answered in it for fun 😅

Asking on this thread now for you to support this cause, which directly affects Eurofighter;

Do yall arl made a bugreport about the wrond supercruise speed?
with minfuel and 2 Aim-120B+2 AIM9L/i it currently reaches at arround 10km height barely mach 1.06

Maybe I am a little bit strange, but why some reports reference “maximum speed” at Bundeswehr website as proof that wings can’t rip at that speed?
There is planes that have V_max > V_flutter and even V_max >> V_flutter, for example Su-7B

Can someone make a suggestion to give the German EF the pirate as a rank 4 modification? I can’t figure it out. And the German EF should get it, as all the connections are there

Im somewhat surprised how not a lot of people are talking about how with the latest hotfix the acceleration of the EF has massively slowed down compared to what it was prior.

Supposedly the first day engine on dev was the F100-pw-100 which is an engine available on F15A and has now been changed to the correct EJ200 engine, that is both lighter and creates more thrust than the prior one.

Yet after playing the dev server post-hotfix the EF appears to accelerate slower than previously which makes somewhat less sense. The maximum achievable speed at high altitude seems to have been increased (previously at M2.00 at 11.5km alt your wings would rip, right now you can get to 2.07 and still be fine) but achieving those speeds takes an eternity in comparison to prior playing.

It never had it

it was never used in operations etc, bcs germany did not wanted to buy it for their planes. It was however tested on a few german EF

Were there patchnotes for this? I’m trying it out and it does seem reduced
