cause the IPA 7 works with them, doesnt mean ownership
And either way, what u wanna do put an AMK eurofighter with german livery into every tree?

No, as Gaijin have said, skins are cosmetic only, it doesn’t necessarily reflect the standard of aircraft. So just take the model and apply a native skin.
This is the most fair option, and the option most people would support.
nah ipa7 is owned by NETMA. same for IPA3 but i remember reading that the 8 is allegedly Bundeswer property but idk about that

I think i’ve also seen IPA 8 being owned by WTD 61, when looking into IPA7. It is another thing supporting PIRATE for Germany.
As of 2018 though IPA8 was still referred to as being ‘with Airbus’ but based at Manching.
So where is the Pirate on the German EF wouldn’t that also be “This is the most fair option”
As it stands the AMK would be the only way to make the german EF somwhat special and worth to grind

IPA 7 used to be with Airbus/EADS, now is supposedly with WTD 61 along with IPA 8.
The sole Eurofighter EF2000 at WTD 61 is instrumented production aircraft (IPA) 3. Besides the ODIN project, the jet is used as a test bed for a project to extend the life of the brake parachute. In the future, two more IPAs are expected to join WTD 61: IPAs 7 and IPA 8 are already at Manching but are still operated by Airbus Defence and Space.

It says currently in your picture.
It is not impossible that the ownership got transfered to the bundeswehr
I found this german “article”:
it basicly says that the IPA-7 entered Service as GS029/30+44 and then served as a testbed at airbus.
So from my understanding it is a German owned airframe that Airbus uses to test shit.
GS0029 is just the serial number. GS because its a German Single (GT for German Trainer). the 30+44 is just the designation it would have gotten if it went into service with the German Air Force. this excerpt really doesnt prove anything except that its being used by airbus.

then give my soild evidence that it was infact an airframe that was fully owned by airbus otherwise this disscussion dosent make any sense
I would be able to live with it rn to have an airframe thats alot better once it is fixed
so we can atleast agree that the IPA7 is an airframe that was ordered by germany?
Or rather, the Typhoon wants a high-performance radar and can only wait for the catcher E，If so, how long will it take for this change to come?
It probably will perform identical to the Captor-M right now
Isn’t the Catcher M considered the best performing electronically scanned radar? The current in-game performance is really not flattering
Captor-M is often considered the best mechanically scanned radar but ingame I would take the APG-65 from the F-4F ICE any day of the week

Oh yes, Catcher M is a mechanical scanning radar (a mistake caused by typing too fast), so can the Typhoon be considered ruined by Gaijin’s bad Catcher M (forgive me for my bad English, this is the translator used)
