Smin might be unavailable so @Stona_WT pls could you give me some insight about this report, and maybe some feed back from the devs.
it seems like EF-2000 is the correct name for the german EF
or just Eurofighter
iam just saying that it was called EF-2000 before
Unfortunately though “Eurofighter” is also the trademarked manufacturer consortium name, so Gaijin can’t really use it without permission.

They can it’s the plane damn name even if they can’t just put “Eurofighter” alone as a name the moment they put the Tranche number and block number as in “Eurofighter (T3A B25)” all problems will be solved.
I asked the Taktisches Luftwaffengeschwader 31 „Boelcke“ via Mail, and they replied,
The Name they use is:
Eurofighter Typhoon and Eurofighter 2000, sadly this alone isnt strong enough evidence for the name, thats why I send an FOI to the German MoD.
There are now 2 options,
1: I get an answer with the Cover of the Flight Manual for the Eurofighter.
2: I dont get Informations…
In case of 1, No more Informations needed flight manuell is stronger than ANY other source aviable, change of the name would happen depending what is written on the Cover…
In case of 2, the Email of the "Taktisches Luftwaffengeschwader 31 „Boelcke“ "
Would get an higher priority and they would have to make an Judgement of the Wording in the Mail
Edit: I also have now 2 other mails to other squadrons which house the Eurofighter in Gernany

No, they’d have to change it if it’s an active company trademark name. Trademarked company names don’t fall under fair use for these sorts of things in video games.
Like with the SAAB-105, Gaijin are using the defunct acronym for Svenska Aeroplan AktieBolaget instead of the active company name Saab. The real plane was Saab 105, not SAAB-105

Airbus call it Eurofighter
The Bundeswehr call it Eurofighter
Leonardo call it Eurofighter
Almost every human being call it Eurofighter, it’s the plane name you’re not stealing the company name
@Gunjob I wonder, how much weight would an mail have from the Eurofighter GmbH regarding its German Name?
Wait actually i am wrong Eurofighter group don’t call it only Eurofighter they call it Eurofighter Typhoon so technically by only saying Eurofighter you’re still not violating the trademark https://www.eurofighter.com/the-aircraft
Typhoon isnt used officaly in germany because of the WW2 Typhoon to avoid confusion/connection with WW2
Documents don’t go into that sort of detail generally. They just say stuff like:
The maximum AMAAAM fit is 6, together with 2 ASRAAM, and the maximum ASRAAM fit will be 6 when up to 4 AMRAAM are carried.
There’s no evidence suggesting that is possible.

apperently there is in the DA7 manual a few bug reports that wanted amraams on the inner wing had the da7 manual attached iirc
but we all know it is restricted and we cant use it
