You didn’t even ask, just assumed I was making stuff up. I even told you it was the game developers decision to not properly model ordnance drag.
Here it is from two different official sources
One
Two
In regards to whether or not it is noteworthy, it most certainly is.
Coming sooner than you think ;)
I am only refering to the response I quoted.
He said the effect of Eurofighter supercruising will not be as pronounced in game as it might be in real life since the average cruising speed in game is much higher than it would be irl because drag is not modelled correctly.
In my opinion many other aspects are playing into this are as well.
So the advantage of a Eurofighter maneuvering at transonic speeds with high g-loads likely will not be depicted properly.
It might do it better than some other jets in game due to thrust alone but due to many real life limitations which do not exist in game it’s advantages at the speeds it is designed for will not matter as much.
Responding to that with what you posted was akin to comparing dried apples with orange confiture.

oh that a new picture from the amraam tests, but yeah it isnt the first we have plenty other pictures
like this one with the brimstones already a few years old as well
besides that you are looking at the ipa 03.
Its the 2 seater test eurofighter, they arent specificaly part of the german army but are development testing eurofighters
#WTD61?
Edit:(Yes, thats a sentence)
so will germany get irst in war thunder? (would be good enough for balancing considering warthunder already added fictional f16 to japan) And germany suffers
Would be eazy copy and pasta ala Gaijin, but hopefully we wont get the IRST since the Mayor part of the German EF dont have it

no i think the IPAS are in an AIRBUS site
Ah, shit quote the wrong one…
completly at gajins mercy, germany is the only nation that could / would receive the AMK kit currently as well
You will see me calling it AMG Kit because Mercedes-Benz AMG and so
amk would be insane but kinda sad no irst : /
Don’t worry, Tranche 4+/5 EFTs (that only Germany is buying atm) is set to have both :)))
Also IRIS-T Mk.2 with a better seeker and range(?)

are italian eurofighters better than german ones? I want to grind for a eurofighter with irst kinda lol
yeah I hope gaijin would put new jets like that in the game, I mean its the only fighter germany has for the future
Maybe we will get a early EF as Premium, people would buy it like the KA-50 when it came to the shop
There’s zero reason to nerf the Typhoon.
In BVR the first Typhoon [and potentially second] is identical to F-15C MSIP II [which is itself a “gen 4.5” aircraft].
And WVR, it’s going to be using 9Ms, or for Britain maybe ASRAAM if they’re R-73 equivalent in IRCCM on the best dogfighting platform. With later versions using more advanced missiles since that’s how Gaijin [correctly] does things for balance.
People make a lot of claims about Typhoon I heard about F-15C, and when I scrutinize those claims as I have with F-15C, I see a capable aircraft that isn’t a Wunderwaffe.
Yes, it is strong, so is every other non-stealth twin-engined fighter NATO nations are using.
Yes, Typhoon is one of the best WVR aircraft in the world.
It’s just not going to change the meta at this stage. Especially since radar missiles are becoming stock missiles.
Arguments I’ve heard so far and refuted by many, not just myself.
“IRST will make it OP!” Su-27 had IRST since introduction and not a single person mentioned it as a serious tactic in air RB for its entire existence in War Thunder.
“This missile above and beyond AIM-120 and 9M will make it OP!” Won’t be on the first one introduced.
“Its electronic warfare capabilities will make it OP!” Others have these features IRL as well. Not implemented currently. Potentially requires a game engine upgrade.
“It has AESA!” Tranche 3 does, as well as the equivalents Britain and Italy are likely using. The first one uses a mechanical PD radar. A good one, at least as good as the ones USA used.
“WVR it’ll be OP!” Sure, if people dogfight with us, and they don’t have friends around. Just like Gripen and F-16A are “OP” WVR currently.
So to reiterate, I am not discounting the good of Typhoon Tranche 1, and other-nation equivalents.
I am merely assessing an aircraft for a game whose meta is boom and zoom, and BVR currently.
I love the Typhoon, I love the Rafale, I love the F-15. I want Typhoon at least as much as everyone in this topic.
And one thing WE ALL can agree on is our love of Typhoon.
