Eurofighter Typhoon - Germany's Best Fighter Jet (Part 1)

All good,

Yes the BIS was superior to both the SMT and the MF, I remember playing the F-4/FGR-2 before the implementation of SARHM and the R-60 on the 21 platforms made them pretty competitive.
Yes RWR was a massive weakness when we started to receive airframes with SARHMs

It looks like we are past all that now, with the Typhoon looking great

T-80B got a thermal sight because of the Swedish trials prototype…

I guess different rules apply though because it’s not Russian

That was a T-80U which got thermals for atleast the swedish trials dont know if they had them before and if not when the rest got them

The T-80B got drop-in thermals at somepoint on some hulls (potentially somewhat similair to the DU-hulls in M1s)

Yeah your right, the Swedish trials T-80 wasn’t a B.

But only one T-80B ever received a thermal sight. Not until the BVM were they installed as standard, which is a separate vehicle.

it was without K-1 btw

Germany has plenty of experimental or one off equipment additions too.

Let’s not please twist this into something it is not.

With Typhoon, Luftwaffe service variants are characterised by the lack of IRST. It’s one of the main features between it and the other nations variants. We wish to keep some differennces between them whilst also not restricting it’s weaponary as far as possible from a gameplay perspective.

As Ive said, it’s more than possible to submit a suggestion for one of the two test Typhoons that had IRST as a seperate vehicle.

So the German EF is just strictly worse than the others? What’s the point of the German air tree past the second world war if our vehicle additions are going to be strict downgrades from those available in other trees? There is nothing unique about the German EF other than that it is worse than the other two, you didn’t even give it any of the unique weapons it tested.

You guys are happy to give unique German modifications to other aircraft, like giving the Belgian F-104G the German RWR and countermeasures which they never could use, but it doesn’t work the other way around?

whatever you do, please do NOT introduce the IPA 7 with AMK as a premium.

It very much does. Both the Italian and German Typhoon will have Brimstone.

Which Germany has already tested and has now purchased?

We should get those anyway.

Not the version in game. But it will be retained for balance anyway.

Thats an Interesting feature
I would say Diffrence would be the better word for that :-)

so whats the current stance on the LWR? IRL only the British and Saudi ones get it

Only the British one will have that. It was unique to that variant.

will towed decoys be implemented?

Then can the German EF have HOSBO? It was unique to it, and it would make the German EF the only one with a FnF weapon.

Not in this major update. It’s too soon to say beyond that.

As suggestion has already been made as far as I’m aware. But it won’t be in this major. That’s for certain.

Smin, currently the EF has the internal CMs and 320 extra CMs when you get the MAW, will this stay or will it be an separate BOL mod?

If HOSBO were to be added for the Typhoon, could we also see them for the Tornadi IDS ASSTA1 or later Tornado variants?
