Eurofighter Typhoon (Germany) Dev Thread

Exactly why idk if leaving the eurofighter out of aim120c-5 would be fair necessarily. Especially if F15e gets it. I’d rather have 4-6x 120c-5s v.s. 4-8 120bs.

Don’t know either. We’ll have to see how the EF will compare against Eagles on the live server. If they are close enough, neither shoould get C5 IMO since it will be faaaar too strong currently. But if theres enough ofna performance gap then I could see either jet get C5 to compensate.

Who am I even kidding. America mains are going to get clowned on by the first EFs they see and immediately call for C5s, 5 minutes after the upddate goes live

As right as i think you are, I personally hope the first plane to get c-5 is hornet. That way it gives the hornet some bite in bvr compared to the faster, more capable planes like f15 and eurofighter. It wouldn’t be untouchable in bvr as something as fast as f15e or eurofighter can probably match the range with speed and alt.

Agreed. I think FA-18C is a prime candidate to receive C5 as it comparatively REALLY slow

How is calculating numbers the same as blind speculation

Gaijin “German don’t have PIRATE IRST due to historical”
meanwhile abomination name F-16AJ and YaK 141 exist in the game
best joke i ever see
German euro with IRST are even more real than entire existence of both i’ve mentioned

Gaijin seem to forget that noone in the world put marketing lie for their weapons more than their glorious Russia
SU-57 the raptor killer they said yet rcs of F-18.

its not like the eurofighters will already be hold back by not getting the propper weaponkits.

Also as rmk-30 for UHT, but nuh oh - non historical (or any other reason…)

or by not getting the propper thrust for their engines
or by not getting the propper Instant turnrate
or by not getting the propper sustained turnrate
or by not getting their ECM Modelled

German Eurofighter is lightest Eurofighter in game because it has no IRST right??

Should be in theory, but wasn’t on the dev server. It had the same weight

The IRST was probably replaced with a counterweight to avoid upsetting the balance of the aircraft. Britain at one point considered removing the gun from their Eurofighters, but kept it when they round they’d have to pay to put a counterweight in it’s place.

Lol you don’t need to “counteract” the weight, first of all it’s negligible, and the aircraft is computer controlled using fly by wire, it easily corrects for imbalance.

No one is saying it can’t super cruise.

theres been two guys MiG-23M and BBCRF have been claiming it cant at all for the last couple weeks

When not having proof of concrete numbers you are making speculative numbers. I looked more into that site it is an forum much like this one. Sources the site uses may be useful but without seeing them the data there is useless and questionable. I.e. numbers on an aircraft that never existed.

Also i never said blind speculation so what are you trying to do? Speculation can be made with information but if you don’t have enough information the info is still speculative.

End of the day they are an 3rd party source and will be nothing but against the standards that Gaijin has enforced on other aircraft.
