In fact just about all of them were (apart from maybe 1 or 2 that got retired).

I’m not saying you should remove PIRATE from UK Typhoon.
I’m saying if you gave French HMD and datalink, then you SHOULD give EF2000 PIRATE as well.
Btw, just beacuse there’s no pictures it doesn’t mean Lw’s EFs didn’t use PIRATE on RedFlag 2012.

Paveway IVs, Brismtones and Aim-9Ms werent enough?
No you were just saying that British and Italian Typhoons also did not always have IRST too. That would be correct for some (T.1, F.2, T.3 and Block 1 & 2 Italians) just not the variants in game however.

I don’t need handouts in the form of some AIM9. I need what the plane had, and that’s IRIS-T.
Not even close but cool?
Sure, ASRAAM and IRIS-T for the British and Italian Typhoons respectively. Aim-9X for the F-15E, R-74s for the next soviet aircraft, Python 5 for the Israeli aircraft, etc etc etc.

Ok, can you explain Italian Typhoons and Rafales, then?
Sure, when they get released.
I dont need handouts in the form of some F-15. I need what the US had, and thats the F-22
see how its a kinda BS argument for Germany to get next gen missiles now?

but not now, like you want IRIS-T for germany eft.
unless you just want them to come with other 5th gen IR aam, in which case yeah your right
Ok, so when exactly did the French receive HMD and L16?
HMDs and additional MICA pylons were tested and integrated to Rafale F.3R for export customers. This has already been answered.
Ok, but French don’t have integrated HMD and we have French Rafale in game, not Quatari or Indian.
F3R is French sw. Q3R is Quatari and not sure how is Indian sw package called.
In-Service integration is not required in game to be considered for weaponry. Its for the same reason the German EFT benifts from AIM-9M, Brimstone Dual Mode and Paveway.
That’s cool. You’ll also get F22 with Luneburg lens, since virtually all F22s, that aren’t flying combat missions (meaning 99%) have it attached.
Why this logic not working for german PIRATE?

Ok, so why not putting PIRATE on the +EF then?
+EF is PIRATE ready.

As we have 3 versions of the Eurofighter in game and the lack of PIRATE is one of the key distinguishing features between the German version and Italian / British. Where its possible to avoid fully identical aircraft when there are multiple variants, and at least have some differences that reflect their real world counterparts, this is always aimed for.
As we have 3 versions, the lack of IRST is the main key difference in the German version just as it is in reality between the operators.
