Eurofighter Typhoon - Germany's Best Fighter Jet

It really is. Whenever I check through the National Archives Doc’s @Flame2512 sourced all I can think is;

Can these be used for bug reports??

These are primary sources, and they will be.

Low wing loading and massive TWR helps for sure. Id love to see the numbers tho tbh, all i have is the comparative anecdotes of Eurofighter pilots relative to US teen series jets

Ofcourse.

They’re being saved for when EFT turns up. But believe me, there is nothing bar the F-22 that will hold a candle to the EFT.

The french would be angry and “urm Ackchually” that statement, but afaik the Rafale is inferior to the Typhoon in raw flight performance as well

It would be a shame if there were documents on the Rafale…

Do we already know how the rafale stacks up performance-wise to the Typhoon in raw numbers???

Some of us do…
All i can say is that one of the groups will not like it.

Im hoping the group are the hyper elitist french players and not the perpetually screwed german ones…

Itd be two birds with one stone

You will learn the day the EuroCanards get added.

The last time i asked about the Trialen 105 for German bombs it got rejected, the reason was bc it’s too good XD

ah that was germans ww2 explosive wasnt it?

Yeah, he had a bug report that many german bombs were using the lower yield HE filler that they could run, and it got shot down, woupdve been a somewhat significant increase in TNT equivalence for multiple german bombs iirc

My hope is that both are good as they both are IRL.

Naturally as someone likes the Eurofighter i hope it fights better but I certainly would not like the Rafale to be some sort of heavier Gripen or Mirage thing.

I’m not sure there are many documents about Rafale but there are some good minimum figures to base it off of which are above a lot of things.

Yep
Trialen 105; Einsatz, Deutschland WK II: Bomben und Torpedos;

Zusammensetzung: 70 % TNT, 15 % Hexogen, 15 % Aluminiumpulver bzw. 74 % TNT, 14 % Naphthalin, 12 % Aluminiumpulver

Then we’re very unlikely to see it.
Gaijin already massage figures for ‘balance’
that and they fear Stalin’s cold dead hand will reach out from the grave if they don’t buff Russian, equipment

On a more serious note, and not knowing the engagment parameters of the exercise, luftwaffe pilots have been claiming to out fight F-22’s which by default means it knife fights better than an F-35

So i’m not with you on this, i’d rather see an aircraft that is competitive to the current top tier aircraft choices than have another’s nations bled into the trees as the only alternative

To my knowledge that is the case.

Yes all bombs from the SC50 to the SC1800 would get it’s TnT equivalent multiplied by 1.6 here is how probably would it look like:
