There is just a plane in the hangar (empty)
Until you confirm this with the words of developers or moderators, my opinion remains the same and your words are empty.

As I wrote earlier today: Counting these things into the “empty weight” is defeating the definition of “empty weight” which is clearly defined as quoted.
Empty weight means the weight of a vehicle excluding the weight of ammunition, fuel, oil and lubricants, removable reactive armour, spare parts, tools and accessories, removable snorkelling equipment, crew and their personal equipment.

Incorrect, when talking about WT. WT empty weight is really empty. Weaponry, fuel, oil or crew is not included in it, those are separate values which are added to it during runtime.

Which also means the EF is still 300 kg too heavy with now 11.300 kg.
And then the question: empty weight with or without PIRATE? :D

the German EF has no PIRATE, unless they forgot that …
Yes I know that… The general empty weight for all Typhoons is 11.000 kg but some have PIRATE and some don’t. So what is the weight of PIRATE which the german Typhoon doesn’t have?

I’d wager a LOT PIRATE does not weigh 300 kgs

Close enough, No where near 300 anyway so yeah
So… Adding 55 kg to the empty weight of the Typhoons who have it or substract another 55 kg from the german Typhoon? :D
It turns out that we have to ask that the weight of the German EFT should be 10.945 kg.
The British EFT will be heavier than all 3x EFT due to the laser radiation warning system. I think it also weighs a lot with all the sensors and blocks.

That’s true
It will be the same as with the F4F, which without a lot of electrics weighed 1t less and was the most maneuverable phantom among its relatives.
Here I think we will win 55 kg from the Italian, and 100+ kg from the British

Maybe we can subtract from the mass of the aircraft all the stuffing in the wing tip due to a non-working missile trap. We’ll win more weights. Let’s throw out what doesn’t work now))))
The pilot can use a helmet equipped with an indicator sight and all necessary information systems, including night vision goggles. The helmet is an integrated design of the NEA (Head Equipment Assembly). It performs all the functions typical for other aircraft helmets: life support, oxygen supply, communication, protection from shock loads, from the effects of high-speed pressure (up to a speed of 1110 km/h), from means of mass destruction and eye protection from a laser beam. The helmet can also perform additional functions: providing increased comfort (due to good ergonomics, the presence of an individual air conditioning system, low weight, etc.), displaying flight navigation and tactical information on the display of the helmet-mounted indicator sight, binocular viewing within ± 40 °, the use of night vision equipment.
the use of night vision equipment
I do not remember that the dev server had night vision or a thermal imager implemented through the pilot’s helmet.

I do not think it had it in the server either.
