Eurofighter Typhoon - Germany's Best Fighter Jet

you cant just look at frequency bands and go “yep this can detect that so it’ll see this”.
LPI radars are a thing and they obviously thought of this with Eurofighter.

Fair enough.

How good will be the radar of the typhoon that’s coming in the next update? I don’t know much about that plane

very

😳😳😳

Basically the best mechanical fighter-sized radar ever. Don’t know the exact numbers though, you could ask Flame or Gunjob for that.

Great for Simulator Battles

Also anybody know Captor-M vertical scan range?

@Flame2512 @Gunjob oh blessed keepers of the EFT lore, do you have any exact numbers I can see or that you can tell us regarding the Captor-M radar? Stuff like scan rates, gimbal limits, etc…?

I beg of you to bestow this holy knowledge on our meager thread T^T

(or anyone else with sources for me to look at, cuz lotta ppl say lotta things but nobody seems to have sources when I ask T^T)

It doesn’t really matter. Gaijin has got the serial number on jets wrong many times before. If they want to add a T1 jet but accidentally give it the serial number of a T3 they aren’t suddenly going to change their mind and make it a T3. If you are lucky they’ll change the skins, but usually it just gets left.

Scan rate is the big unknown currently. Tracking range is over 100 nm against a fighter sized target:

Eurofighter Radar

Gimbal limits are +/-70° in Azimuth and +/- 60° in elevation.

Other stuff:

  • Tracks 20 targets in TWS (possibly more in the background)
  • 6 datalink channels.
  • Air to ground target detection / tracking
  • LPI & Passive radar modes
  • Very good NCTR capability

what a shame

Well that’s the coolest thing I’ve seen all day.

I didn’t even know such flares existed! Thanks for sharing

it likely not gonna be only for German but if that the case i kinda agreed with him a little
because both Brits and Italy don’t lack gen 4 like German did
but nah there no ways it gonna be only for German anyway

While i dont think germany should get it before anyone else.

It would be a bit retribution for getting all the mig29s etc updates later. Even if poor italy abd uk had nothing to do with it

so? why does this matter?

it doesn’t matter anymore
I’m just saying if it really was for German only i kinda agree with him a little

yes, so why does it matter to make you think this

Stop acting hard done by, if you are seriously clinging to germany and insisting you suffer instead of playing another tree in the meantime then you don’t deserve much at all, I went and played more interesting air trees while I patiently waited for the typhoon, now I can come back, finish grinding the ICE and be ready for the besf jet OAT

I’m just thought that German should have Fox3 gen 4 like the other
for me if German is the only nation that get Eurofighter all it really gives to German is chance to keep up with other nations that’s all but really Italy and Brits also get it i’ll call it as benefit

oh yeah forgot about that
the NCTR on it is actually nuts
