So? You using chatgpt or grok as a source is just dumb.
I never disagreed with the fact that typhoon most probably doesnt have a system in its flight computer that could be turned off like a “cobra” button, just that asking Grok or ChatGPT as a “heres my source, im not gonna be your secretary” is stupid.
And the second part was more related to the cobra button we do have ingame being relatively useless, not as a response to you. Response to you was basically the AI part and the typhoon FCS
su umm how many MAX meteors can eurofighter carry from existing images of them on different pylons (not from any renders)
Same as AIM-120s I would assume, so six going by pictures.
Four half-submerged into the fuselage, two on pylons.
In otherwords, since Eurofighter has a low ARH missile count, it can make up for having strong missiles.
Seriously, Meteor would break every balance in the game currently (as much of what is left). That thing is a supersonic Mach >4 Anti-Air cruise missile with a no escape zone of nearly 100 km (bigger than any map in WT currently).
Additionally the seeker range is much higher than that of the AIM-120 or R-77. In case of the EURAAM version (of which nobody knows if it was ever produced as it’s a Meteor with more advanced seeker head which was planned but not heard of since 25 years) which combines active Ka-band radar homing with passive X-Band homing, it would be nearly impossible to notch as only either the seeker head of the missile has to hold a lock or the plane radar illuminates the target for the missile as some sort of fire control or it just goes home on jam. Only chance to evade would be the terrain.
Thinking about it again: The EF was added way too early to the game. Its default AtA and AtG weaponry had to get gimped enormously to not be overpowered. AIM-9M instead of IRIS-T, AIM-120B instead of Meteor, Brimstone 1 with SAL only (which it never had) instead of Brimstone 2/3 with FnF capability.
And even if they add new missiles they wouldn’t add Meteor until the Russian R-37M, American AIM-260, Chinese PL-15/PL17 because that’s literally the end game.
Next probably comes the AIM-120C5(all nato+jpn+isr)/R-77M(rus+chn)/MICA NG(for the fr*nch).
Not to forget if it loses the target it loiters in the area and seeks it XD
It is what it is
china never used the r77m afaik
they use the PL15 and PL17 like you said
Is the aim260 even in service?
i only heard of tests
The only ones they used were the RVV-AE (Export R-77) and RVV-SD (Export R-77-1, which was spotted in China), but that’s outta topic anyway
With 100% fuel and no weapons the wings will absolutely break at 12.5g
Test it yourself if you care to find out.
The wings in the eurofighter do not break at 12g. I’ve played the EF a ludicrous amount and I’ve not broken my wings at all and im pulling 12g all the time.
You may be pulling more than 12g, but not long enough to break the wings.
Or you might be using a much lighter load.
On min fuel and no weapons you will rip your wings at 15+g
EF breaks at 18G
most of the time it breaks at 13-14gs at most fuel loads. 18gs is nonsense in the sense that it’s its rips at that g load, they rip at max 14.5 gs.
3 things
1st you used trim to circumvent compression
2nd you pulled 13G right before your wing broke
3rd with18Gs i meant release/ pre Hornets Sting EF
Yes, I used trim to circumvent compression, its to prove a point that the wings absolutely break at 12.5g, but as you see in the video, the wings will break before compression occurs. It is simply easier to control the aircraft using trim in sim controls using M&K
War thunder G warning rounds to the nearest whole number.
If you are pulling 12.5g, it shows at 13g, I graciously installed WRTI to show that in the turn I broke my wings, my turn peaked at 12.9g and reduced to 12.2g before my wings actually broke.
How is that even close to being relevant?
even before hornet sting they broke at 14.5gs max… It’s just that you cant sit above that rip limit for more than 4 seconds.
yes, every other top tier expect for the rafale rips at around the same point under the same conditions. this is normal and the rafale is an outlier.
