Aww man I had an F-16 turn inside me after a merge at Mach and knew I was dead there was nothing I could do to reverse it.
I dont have the insane acceleration anymore, I dont have that high AOA high ITR it was so easy for the Viper :(

That Typhoon is just wallowing in the air.

To put .it into perspective.

An SU27SM with 12 A2A missiles and 40% fuel will have the same sustained turn rate, better ITR as a eurofighter with the same effective fuel load and 6 A2A missiles.

The Su27SM will also accelerate much faster in a turn and have much much more power in a vertical fight.

The eurofighter will also break its wings easily at 12.5g.

The only advantage the eurofighter has is top speed and acceleration.

But youtube comments will tell you it’s not actually an FM nerf :D

I must congratulate Gaijin, not only did they fix nothing major/important about the aircraft ever since they added it, they broke it even more, to a point the only thing it can do right now is imitate an F-15E style of gameply of slinging AMRAAMs and then running cus it can no longer dogfight effectively.

So, when is the Rafale getting limited to 12Gs?

The Typhoon is just the Gripen, it was very good and now in true Gaijin fashion it has been nerfed hard.
Now like the Gripen in a few updates time when the Su-35 and F-15EX are added the Typhoon might get those buffs to make it realistic.

At the moment though I do not see any changes barring maybe the Radar and Gaijin finally adding a UV filter to the cockpit…

Nah, they ain’t gonna fix the radar. Their “”“internal statistics”“”" are probably saying that the EFT is performing fine so it doesn’t need any buffs/fixes, it needs more nerfs. I’m guessing EFT players are just too good, and Rafale players too bad - that’s why we’ve got this dichotomy of one getting constantly nerfed, and the other getting constantly buffed.

Thats exactly the case, to Gaijin and based on youtubers, French and Russian mains the Typhoon is OP…

Players that play it and have had it since it dropped know thats no longer true. The airframe suffers from a multitude of issues.

Typhoon lets try 1 circle…
Cant go vertical…
And Cant Rate fight it…

Not many options left for the old Typhoon.

That was playing with your food

Who would’ve thought uber nerfing the FM and tanking the thrust will do this…

But the bots on youtube claim the EFT still wins everything.

Until the Rafale G limit is brought down to the Typhoons level it will continue to do stupid stuff pulling 16G in that clip…

? As far as i get the rule in the game is 1.5 * the g max a plane can do irl, so 16.5g is achievable normally.

11* 1.5 = 16.5g

There are sometimes bugs that make any plane do even more g than it is supposed to otherwise.

The 1.5x multiplier is not how much more than can pull. Its only the structural limits. So if an aircraft can only pull 9G it will only pull 9G, however if it has a 12G structural limit the ingame structural limit will be 12x1.5=18G, but that doesn’t mean it can now pull 18G aerodynamically, it still only had 9G of pull it will still pull 9G.

Typhoon is limited to 12G in game
Rafale does not have that limitation. Which is why Eurobros are complaining

Makes the EFT getting hardcoded to not exceed 12Gs, and Rafale’s continouous ability to pull between 15Gs and 18Gs even more bizzare.

Either both get limited to 12Gs, or neither does imo.
Also please revert AoA changes, I want my 35 AoA back :(

Oh ok thanks, still no idea how this works for bomber etc then since except if i’m missing something they can pull a lot of g compared to irl.

We don’t have the “Flight System Computer” limiting us to 9Gs to preserve the pilot like the real life jets do, the airframes are therefore allowed to pull as much as they can.

Question is: why was the Eurofighter coded to have a 12G limit.
