well they changed the FM already, thrust is still too little, but they acknowledged it already in a bug report mentioned above. Ingame Engine stats havent changed, they increased drag i´d have to guess by a lot. We have three stats available:
breaks off to M 1.0 in 30 seconds - was 26/27s in game now is 41s!!!
breaks off to 35k feet to M 1.5 in less than 150s - was 75s in game now is 132s - which is fine imo
top speed M 2.35 - took ages to get to M 2.0, doesnt wing rip there anymore, just a feeling I dont have proof of anykind, should be able to reach M 2.0 quicker than that considering those insane 90kn engines
disclaimer, speed test were concluded in Test Drive, Spaded, full air to air loadout, full fuel, limited fuel
hope they manage to tweak that fm
Yes, this is because Gaijin does whatever tf they want.
You give evidence? “It’s a marketing lie”
There is a clear problem solved by common sense? “Not a bug, give evidence”
I mean why tf does the ammo belt on Tornado, Eurofighter and Alpha Jet contain Practice Tracer shells? The Gripen has a completely different belt but uses the same gun and I’m sure Luftwaffe, RAF and AM don’t just throw practice shells at the enemies…
The PT shell doesn’t even kill the crew if it hits them directly, they just gets a headache.
I found a picture on the official website of the german airforce showing a Eurofighter with the IRST equipped if I’m not mistaken.
Not sure how widley its fielded tho in practice.
Making it a tier 4 modification seems reasonable, but not necessary.
Aaaactually, it’s not a reliable source because it can be biased
The only reliable source - plane field tests and actual documentation, or in other words sikret documents
WTD-61 is stationed there, yes, but all Armed private aircrafr projects are tested there as it’s the only place allowed for it in germany
the coat of arms on it’s rudder is the code for Airbus Defence and space
the Aircraft number is also a Key identification
the Luftwaffe Designates their aircraft as XX + YY = Squadron Number Cross Aircrafr Number
Example: 31+07 Squadron 31 Boelcke Aircraft N⁰7
More unnecessary details about the Aircraft numbers
to clarify, technically the Aircraft designation is XY + AB
X= Squadron Type
Y= Squadron Number in the type
A= Group in the squadron
B= Specific aircraft
then 31+07 becomes
Aircrafr 7 of Group 0 in the First Fighter-bomber squadron
with Eurofighters the system doesn’t add up anymore because it’s designated as a Fighter Bomber so you’ll see stuff like 30+15 being in JG73 and 30+17 being in JG74
“Squadron” 98 is Private venture aircraft registered by the Luftwaffe to not-break weapon laws
Actually the blue and white checkered coat of arms is rhe coat of arms of Bavaria, but the symbol to the bottom left of that is the marking of the WTD.
gaijin means that British typhoons will get brimstone no matter what, while German and Italian typhoons will have to wait for developers to evaluate them. All in all, the matter remains to be decided.
Idk how this is not a bug, and idk what are their sources about naming, but it’s clearly wrong, P3E have nothing to do with this bug report too, and if the matter is about the Brimstones then Eurofighter 31+11 (Tranche 2) that came before the Eurofighter 31+37 (Tranche 3A) is presented with Brimstone or the so called P3E upgrades
