It was just a question. Jeez
When you are uploading Pictures you have to wait an moment… because it was not finished aka we cant see it
Its wings blew of at 1500kmh exactly on the deck
yes, at mach 2, what is it now?
People over-estimated the supercruise capabilities of the Eurofighter. I contested this with facts and was heckled for it. The people who rebuked what I had to say with legitimate information had showed me that it indeed can supercruise but nothing has pointed towards a high supercruise speed (1.6+ mach), and certainly not towards the efficient range being much above mach 1. I think 1.3 mach efficient range is a upper estimate and that the absolute maximum top speed before it stops accelerating is possibly up to 1.5 mach as the documentation suggests.
By contrast, an aircraft tailored towards supercruise performance was the F-22 which can easily cruise up to 1.6 mach on dry thrust as fast as the F-15 (likely an earlier model like the C) could on afterburner. Then they would relax the throttles back to stay there. The Eurofighter should also be able to get up to 1.5 mach but this is the fastest it can go on max dry thrust.
Thrust drops off after mach 2, which is sensible. The document someone provided earlier claiming absurd thrust and drops off only after 2.2 was… well, absurd. I think the thrust looks accurate now, more so than before… but the drag may be too high still.

Gaijin decided not to give Italian and German typhoon Brimstone stones
link pls
Link or its not happening
General engines and nozzles sound changed too as far as I can see (I liked the f15 nozzle sound xD)
Eurofighter doesnt sound like a gripen anymore?
Nothing has been decided yet. This is simply answering that the British one will get them regardless of the outcome of the previous report.

Also, I think thrust is final because the report on incorrect thrust has been labeled “not a bug.” So it wont even be able to reach its top speed.
He’s saying afterburner thrust was reduced, which it was.
EJ200s were effectively PW-220s when on reheat before being corrected.
Nice to see people on the internet still having the ability to change their view when presented with evidence.
Regarding its pricese abilities, I have no clue. Eurofighter will be the highest performing jet I’ll have ever flown regardless of how it will be implemented.
Thanks for the info
Would the IPA 07 Eurofighter testing them (which AFAIK is a Tranche 2) not be enough as evidence for the german one?
