I wouldn’t go so far as to say it’s that good, until we get next gen IR and radar missiles, then it is pretty much just a Mirage 2000 with better FM and an F-15E equivalent in BVR with J-10/gripen levels of dogfight capability
Gunan be really interesting to see what they decide to do if the Typhoons do come this Decemeber.
Will they add CAS too all 3 Typhoons, will only some get it, will none? Will Rafale get none too?
Read the sutton book again recently and there were indeed a few mentions of dodgy reliability and gun jams on it, but the haven’t been modelled on the Alpha Jet, gripen or tornados yet so we can hope
Germany and Italys might be at 14.0, but UKs will probably be 14.3 maybe 14.7 :P
Yeah, Where I read about it :D

Hopefully we get a Frankenstein block 5 variant with GBUs and SAL brimstones since they are established to not be much of a threat, plus a LITENING II/III pod
Maybe. I can see them not giving any to Britain because we have just gotten the GR4, and that being the reason why ASSTA3.1 and A200C weren’t added.
I wouldnt necessarily have immediate issue with that, but both the GR4 and GR7 will need buffs and FGR4 must come ASAP
all of the typhoon’s CAS ordinance is already in the game in same form or another, especially after the influx of GPS GBUs added in Firebirds. especially since the main operational armament of UK typhoons seems to be 4x Paveway 4 and a compliment of drop tanks, ASRAAM and AMRAAM/Meteor
I am assuming you say this in the event of CAS options being available for the respective jets instead of them being tranche 1 AA only?
I think I read that the German Typhoon only has LJDAM and Paveway 1 through 4? The Brits also have Brimstones. Gaijin, give the German one HOPE and or HOSBO
No, just straight up higher BR for no reason. Happens all the time. Like F3 Late vs ICE

Germany is procuring brimstones so that is enough for gaijin to add them alongside the brits I hope
well they are buying the later moddels with even more range
so Brimstone III?

Ahh yes, greetings, Mr Pantsir driver, sir.
Would you be interested in any of my Typhoons ground ordinance? A paveway? A glidebomb? A JDAM? Perhaps a guided missile?
I’m not expecting the typhoons to be CAS monsters until ARMs and F&F brimstones are modelled tbh
well it can carry even more brimstones
WEll probably not but it’d be better than the current option of LJDAM from an ASSTA 1 or just regular bombs from an ICE, for Germany
Realistically the Early typhoon will most likely feature GBU-24,48 and JDAMS with maybe the possibility to carry twin racks of GBU-12s but i have never seen evidence of that
