I trust it enough to put out reasonable STR and SEP values. It’s most recent STR values have more or less matches RideR2 testing. There are still some flight models that are not accurate in Statshark and is in the process of being fixed.

It might get fix after new years perhaps
Also any news on 8 AMRAAM on EFT?
Don’t count on it getting 8x AMRAAM.
Loadout wise, I’m just hoping for Brimstone 2s and maybe Aim-120C5s in the not too distant future.

Did it use a twin AMRAAM pylon for the wing amraam station? Would be a nice loadout.
I would refer you back to @Flame2512 and his sources which have the hard numbers. These would support the EFT having exceptional performance as a baseline.
This tallies with the other public data we have available as well as pilot accounts, reports from Air Forces that use the type, etc.
I don’t dispute Justin Bronk’s credentials btw. If anything, I would read that as an argument to enhance the Rafale in-game relative to the Typhoon at lower speeds. Again, a War Thunder problem rather than a IRL problem.
We’ve got a decent body of data and sources that support the EFT as being one of the best airframes in the game at this point in time. Objective reasons.
On the other hand we have the likes of Flogger-Joker squealing that he doesn’t understand how it works so ergo it must be impossible. Subjective frothing.
I know which evidence base I would tend towards.

Can you show me a delta wing of any kind that is capable of preventing stall at 50 degrees angle of attack? To my knowledge there should be total airflow separation occurring at this stage and yet the aircraft flies in such conditions without departure symptoms of any kind. How do you explain that?
Do any of them show how the Eurofighter should handle such high angles of attack without exhibiting ANY characteristics of departure or stall?
Maybe, but if that is the case why is the Rafale realistically modeled in this regard when the Eurofighter is not?
Why must you resort to ad-hominem and nonsensical straw men arguments? You say all this that and the other about me - you can never quote anything I say directly - and you build these absurd character statements and dismiss anything posted only to follow it up with;

Brimstone has no issues one shotting enemy tanks, i only fire 2-3 missiles to Pantsir in case he notices my missiles, otherwise you dont need more than one missile to kill anything.

Yaah I carry 12x brimstones and 12/12 brimstones were one shot kill

I was hoping that brimstones on typhoon would be easiar, and to a degree they are compared to the GR4 bus, but in terms of actual use in GRB, the skill ceiling is insane compared to say 65G or KH38,
you either do 2-3km run pasts and learn to be super accurate with locking targets in <2 seconds, or you attempt to launch out of range of pantsir and grab a cup of tea for the 50+ seconds it takes to land, jumping up last second,
so many missiles, but not a change in hell to be able to use them whilst also managing the skies with A2A
Im thoroughly disappointed in brimstone and would actually rather just have half as many mavricks

Hes right, if the map is somewhat open russian players (chinese too?) always bring their KH jets and thats the end. Before any SPAA might react the targets are locked and the KH’s on their way. Yesterday, while grinding, I had a guy who instakilled several players. The killfeed was full of his kills. Should have made a screenshot.
Yes Brims are not practical. Try a mixed loadout with GNSS bombs (2) and rest Brims. When you spawn quickly check enemy spawns for SPAA units and toss the bombs in GNSS mode. Mind the speed limit, bomb release speed has been nerfed to below Mach 1, you spawn above mach 1, so you have to reduce your speed. It reduces their range and makes your jet very vulnerable, sadly. Let them glide in. Sometimes the SPAA player wont move. When you read the killfeed you can close in to use Brims.
But yes, thats no comparison to KH38 F&F use. EF2000 needs either better ordnance or a BR decrease in GRB. Face it. Without F&F ordnance its not a GRB top tier jet.
It can get to a position to slam anything on the ground without fear of being hit by a SAM of any kind within a minute of spawning and carries the most amount of laser guided ordnance of any top tier CAS.

Thank you for sharing your experience with it.
I just watched videos of EFT + Brim combo and they either heavily cripple the target or outright OHK it.
EFT could get faster Brims but that’s about it until we get more BRs.

You’re both like that. Stop acting like you’re on some moral high ground here
We also know they were met, either during development or in the end product:

This is indeed a flight model inaccuracy, however it also has too little lift/is too stable in the entire regime so, basically it needs a rework with about 30-35 degrees of AoA max, and a minimum speed of around 110 KEAS.

China is one of the worst nations for top tier CAS. The best CAS loadout for China is 2 KH-29Ts and 4 LGBs.

Same as Germany then. Also 2 max. Enough to evaluate how great these KH’s are, but unfortnately 2 is not cost-effective. Same as the 2x Maverick Pantoms.
KH-29Ts are still significantly worse than KH-38MTs and only slightly better than Mavericks
