Eurofighter Typhoon - Germany's Best Fighter Jet

They are unbearably slow.

2s would be nice, more range and a stronger motor

Oh, and on the topic of historical accuracy, look at what I have found:

This is from a report about EFTs ITR, its currently missing 5 deg/s+…

No wonder the Rafale seems to absolutely dominate it in a dogfight (at least from my experience in custom games) when the FM is underperforming this much.

Rafales design is better for BFM and they have beaten eurofighters, especially at low speeds pretty damn often.

Can i get one too instead of British with irst?
Atleast then i wont get screwed by switching to irst instead of radar automatically.

its only a bug, dw.

Its in for months.


Huh?
Could it be an something to do with HMD?

But how is that physically possible? The Rafale has a worse thrust-to-weight-ratio and higher wing load than the Eurofighter Typhoon in every situation.

Could be anything to do with the sights

Could be the thermals for all we know

Delta canard configuration and drag. The mythical twr of typhoon is only on speed. Not low speed maneuvering combat. Its canard config is for high speed maneuvering and less speed bleed. Rafales canards are made for maneuvering and aoa in mind and it still does well above 1.0 at low speeds. And i think wingloading of rafale is less than of ef or about equal ± few kg.

Is it the datamine for live?
And could you sent the link.

Not live yet

So it’s on the dev server.
Then it probably will be pushed to live today or tomorrow.

How can this shit happen.
They downgraded how the cockpit looks once the update went live.

I made a bug-report on, if it helps.

I thought the cockpit looked different yesterday. I don’t think it was from dev server to live server but I think it was one of the updates on Tuesday or Wednesday that’s done it. Could swear the cockpit was proper on Monday when the update came out

Eurofighter’s lower-wing load makes up for it mostly, it currently is lacking hard in its ITR AoA (even in STR, in fact), whereas the Rafale has been modelled correctly in this department as far as I am aware (the difference between them currently is massive, to say the least a fixed EFT would be a much better match however). The only reference that I have been able to find about Rafale beating the Eurofighter in WVR A2A combat comes from a French source (airforces.fr to be precise) and is dated to 2009 (so for one, it’s old, and two, it’s very possibly biased). I have not been able to find anything else in regards to EFT versus Rafale.

Well my last point of reference was on the dev server.
So my conclusion was it changed from dev server to live
