Eurofighter Typhoon - Germany's Best Fighter Jet

I’ll take a look, but it is not uncommon for old pulse radars to have very high peak powers, but quite low average powers.

For example the Red Steer tail warning radar used on the Vulcan had a peak power output of 130 kW, but doing some maths using the pulse width and PRF provided you arrive at an average power of only 130 W.

For another example the H2S radar used on the Lancaster had a peak transmitted power of 50 kW, but the average power was only 30.2 W.

Then an example for you: If the pulse duration would be 0,36 seconds (which is insanely long) it would take about 60 Wh of storage for that 600 kW pulse (modern laptop battery).
Usually pulse duration is in the microseconds range which gives a needed energy of 0.0006 Wh for a 3,6 microseconds pulse with 600 kW pulse power. To generate this energy a 20 kW generator needs a fraction of a second.

Should generally be superior to AIM-9X Blk.II.

I don’t think so. A 20 kW peak power with 1,956 T/R modules would mean a little over 10 W per module, Which as far as I can tell is in line with what T/R modules of the era were capable of.

If 20 kW was the average power than the peak power would likely be significantly higher than 20 kW and push the power rating of a single TR module to an unrealistically high number.

Yeah, did read something about 10w per T/R modules but wasn’t sure if it was peak or average. Your probably right.

I’m guessing there something about how the AESA puts that power down that makes it far more efficient with what it has?

Because it can’t be “self-explanatory”. There is no explanation as to why EFT should be the only exception to the rule, you’re just coping out.

Everything I posted thus far was something you have previously linked me, I’ve already shared.

Better suited for high alpha flight and from what I can tell had less instability - owing to less restrictive freedom of maneuver. Do you not concur?

Peace at last

That’s not what the video suggested

The canards (small as they are) have far too much authority at low airspeed and are incorrectly used on the airframe as gaijin isn’t modeling the instability properly yet.

Playing false ignorance doesn’t mean they don’t know the limits.

EAP is better suited for high AoA and has less instability - the Eurofighter should not be handling casually DOUBLE the AoA that the EAP was achieving prior. It’s obvious.

No, he cannot. His favorite plane is being scrutinized by someone who isn’t biased.

Show us the clue cuz right now you’re just being intentionally obtuse.

Does it violate the EM diagram or is it an operational safety limit being ignored? If it’s the former we can report it and have it fixed.

F-16, MiG-29, F-14, Su-27 all were fixed regarding AoA capability and limitations in some form or another when it was reported. As was the gripen. I’m not sure what you’re claiming but letting the Eurofighter slip and then hard capping the Rafale is what I’d call unfair.

Which is ~15° beyond point of total flow separation for wings much better suited to such flight conditions such as the Su-33’s or Gripen’s. Odd.

Flame himself asked you lad, get over yourself cus it seems like you’re just hell-bent on proving EFT is overperforming based on circumstantial evidence and full on confirmation bias.

Show us the clue cuz right now you’re just being intentionally obtuse.

Holy cope.

That is a single aspect of the performance that you are focused on. I have already suggested two or three buffs including the maximum available overload in-game being too low.

What you are doing is freaking out because someone has made a valid point that your new toy is overperforming. Nothing I said is circumstantial, the EAP is better suited for high alpha flight and the in-game model doubles those limits. How is that realistic? Answer the question honestly.

“Valid point” i.e “Nooo it shouldn’t be able to do this cus Rafale can’t!!1”

Lol.

Non-US or USSR aircraft gets added to the game that is good.

Mig-23: Its all lies must be nerfed

Shall remember that the next time a US or USSR aircraft gets added and it is totally cracked. Heck it took 3 years for the Mig-23s to be nerfed and even though they are now correct there is a thread every week asking for the correct FM to be removed and the old overperforming one to be returned.

The Brim nerf is indeed hilarious. When russian and US jets have their F&F its fine. I just don’t get it. Either all or none. Its just beyond evil and unfair, whoever did this.
