Yeah, which afaik was claimed for an interceptor config. Now unless interceptor config means “half fuel and 2 missiles”, the dev server model doesnt reach that. Climb performance to x altitude then again does match some of the sources, the same ones that claim the above 1.0 twr
We have captor-m if anything, captor-c if the tranche 1 designation is to be believed. That’s 193kg
Well right now, full fuel + clean is 1.4:1 TWR at speed.
If it lost a ton, that’d 1.5:1.
Full fuel + clean static thrust it’s 1.08:1 currently.
One tone less that’d be 1.15:1.
Though I did see a claim of 700kg less.
The numbers:
Static: 17290kgf.
At speed: 22800kgf.
Mass with full fuel: ~16000kg.

The one tone less numbers roughly match sources I’d say. The missiles must add a boatload of drag then to keep it from doign the vertical climb

Thats min fuel no AAM’s tho, not the standard we’ve been testing with.
From the original supercruise underperformance report

Ima yoink this and add it to the list of Phoon skins.
Sadly that ones a mock up.
And it will be many many years until we get it delivered
Does the EF have a AESA or a PESA? If yes are they modeled correctly in game as of now?
It doesnt have either. The variant were getting has an M-scan radar, though its probs one of the best M-scans ever made, and is (allegedly) capable of things mostly limited to PESA/AESA’s.
Later EFT’s have a gimballed AESA.

I think they will add some camouflages later.
But now let’s see eurofighter in live update.

Later as in literally not built yet, though by next year we could have Tranche 4 to support it irl
Ashamed to see that German Typhoon doesn’t get PIRATE IRST. I am curious whether it is a big difference or not in terms of A2A.

i dont think in air realistic it will make a huge difference, in sim i guess it will. I dont know if the german EF will get better stats then the others bcs of the weight and drag of the additional IRST, but i guess gaijin will not do that
11700 kg is the mass of a 2-seater Eurofighter, and 10.995 is the mass of 1 local aircraft
