I’m not aware of us placing any orders, thus far we’ve been doing a programme of rolling upgrades (see Project Centurion) but I haven’t heard anything about new builds no.
Mind you, I wouldn’t count on it given the way Defence is going at the minute in Britain.
Yeah, certainly. But the option is always there, though I see your point, since a TPOD can be used for A/A whereas the IRST probably can’t be used for A/G
afaik you can use PIRATE for A2G FLIR but there’s obviously no laser designator so its kinda very limited
Do we have any flight performance graphs for the typhoon?
LITENING 3 was integrated in block 5 which is in Tranche 1. F.2 is a Tranche 1 Block 2 EFT. So even if it did have LGB’s it didn’t get the pod to guide them until block 5.
RAF had the following Marks;
Typhoon T.1 (Tranche 1 Block 1 Trainer)
Typhoon T.1A (Tranche 1 Block 2 Trainer)
Typhoon F.2 (Tranche 1 Block 2 Single Seat)
Typhoon T.3 (Tranche 1 Block 5 Trainer or Tranche 2 or Tranche 3)
Typhoon FGR.4 (Tranche 1 Block 5 or Tranche 2 / Tranche 3 P1E, P2E, and P3E upgrades under Project Centurion)
no,why come f2 first…however the france get rafale c(f3.2) which jump out of the early versions…
by the way ,how many missiles can typhoon carry in max?
I cannot comment on leaks.
10 maximum currently.
6x SRAAM + 4x MRAAM
4x SRAAM + 5x MRAAM
4x SRAAM + 4x MRAAM
2x SRAM + 6x MRAAM
Don’t forget the cursed 5 SRAAM + 5 4 MRAAM loadout.
oh looks nice
Oh yeah cheers.
The what?
Think he meant the 4/5 loadout;
where does the 5th AMRAAM go?
delete this
so we’re considering the double rail operational?
Gajin makes me fear more and more that we will be stuck with a block 1 euro.
Or get the f-16 treatment of getting 2 and needing to grind the a2g version specialy as well
Did uk or italy have block 5s as well or did uk skip it to a higher?
Would suck if only one would get a block5 but germany is kinda screwed cas wise
Yes all four EFT nations selected it.
IR only?
Yeah
