Eurofighter Typhoon - Germany's Best Fighter Jet

I think it makes sense to just add the Luftwaffe EF right now. Italy and UK just got competitive jets added with the last patches. Its better for Gajin to drag out these additions quite a bit. They already have Gripens, F-16, Tornado GR4…no need to spam out british and italian top jets every patch.

Does Tyhoon ever have non AESA? that what i wonder

most have M scan. AESA is a new thing for it, aside from some middle eastern ones.
ECRS Mk2 and Mk1 have just recently flown for the first time

yea it had CAPTOR-M (mechanical) and CAPTOR-E (AESA)

Classic Thodin moment…

And i guess its time to remind people that the germans actively hindered the EFT project again…

Britbong vs Bundesboo
Who can piss the furthest about functionally identical aircraft?

Anyone know any solid details on the CAPTOR-M btw? All i can find is this implying its a 60 deg gimbal limit, which if true, ill be pretty sad about…

Do not Look into not existing not leaked document

Considering the Germans were the quickest to try and screw the programme’s exports over, tried to withdraw themselves from it, and degrade it’s capabilities…

Nah. I’ll pass.

Im wondering if the trailer might be showing off a new game engine tbh. Stuff looks really good, and i think someone had recently leaked/hinted an engine update might be coming. Last engine update was in Update New Power 4 years ago.

Based on the trailer:

Oh, no im not getting into an argument, im just stating a fact…

All nations should get the EFT at the same time, it wouldnt be fair otherwise

I imagine(completely made it up) that it has ±70 in azimuth and ±60 in elevation gimbal limit.

no they’re cutting the inner amraams, not the outer ones

70° gimbal side, 60° elevation and given its priority track feature, it should also scan pretty damn quickly.

Agreed, idk what thodin is smoking, this isn’t a jet to throw around to those who feel hard done by, should come to all equally (users anyway)

swap the inner amraam with outer one and its about correct

All set

scan speed is directly correlated to scan range. you can make these dishes move really fast but you’ll lose a lot of range because the dwell time is so low
