Being somewhat aware of the bug reporting process for over-performing FMs, I wonder how he’s able to dispute the reports that led to the nerfs.
They are at the same proposed BR to save 12.7s from the obnoxious US main F-15 spamraam
everything you mentioned the F-15 can get, the typhoon can get, but better. ECRS is superior to AN/APG-82 and all it’s sub-derivatives, the typhoon gets the same BOLs, plus the cherry on top is that the ASRAAM and IRIS-T will outperform every IR missile the US can recieve.
F-22 is a black sheep that can stay away from WT until everyone has received a light stealth multirole (F-35/J-35/Su-75) and armament cannot be used as an argument to balance it because it will still be spammed by useless players, alike will the Su-57
This will happen anyway, the AIM-120C and it’s variants are by far the most used AMRAAM and most of the top BR AMRAAM carriers will eventually have their A/B replaced with a variant of the C.
Aka same thing with the F-4F ICE
GBU? yes
Pod for GBU? No
That has happened to a metric TON of legacy NATO aircraft over the years, especially over Desert Storm, Falklands, and other notable conflicts. Mainly relying on buddy lasing to provide guidance for it, would be a nice addition for the game tbf, would make some nations who are reliant on laser guided weaponry viable again
@BalticSAS germany has brimstones tested since a long time
we good pictures for the IPA 7 since years
I’m aware, however they are now actually purchasing them, so there is even more concrete evidence to add them to a potential T2/T3 luftwaffe typhoon in the future
Have they started using Sniper now? Last I saw, Saudis use Damocles on Typhoon same as their Tornados
Makes sense though, as they have a maintenance facility for Sniper in the country to support the RSAF’s F-15s, and other customers in the region, including Qatar and Kuwait who are set to operate Sniper on Typhoon.
⚠️ ATTENTION BRITBONGS AND TEABOOS ⚠️
I have found primary evidence that states the EF can carry AMRAAMs on it’s inner wing pylon
And a secondary source which states that 10 air to air missiles can be carried
However, in order to strengthen the case to Gaijin I ask everyone who is able to look primary or secondary sources that support the EF being able to use AMRAAMs on the inner wing pylons.
those source doesnt include the double railing
so with @Gunjob sources for sraam double railing the Eurofighter can take a 12 A2A missle loadout
Just saying 10 air-to-air missiles can be carried is no use unfortunately, because it could be refering to the Twin Missile Carrier loadout (4 MRAAM + 6 SRAAM).
eh the first picture still would be good to go then
if we dont get cas capable typhoons on release at least let us murder everything in air
Maybe, but it’s still better than nothing
The problem is that so far that first image is the only somewhat reliable evidence for AMRAAM on the inner wing pylons, and it contradicts multiple other documents which imply or outright state AMRAAMs are not carried there.
So I expect Gaijin will want more evidence.
If they added double rail pylons for the su27sm why should they need more proof for the Eurofighter though
Does Saudi Arabia or other Typhoon users have IR-guided CAS ammunition?
According to Gaijin’s prejudice against MMV missile, I’m afraid we need to find another way.
Otherwise, another useless SAL ammunition VS KH38MT is still very “balanced”
More evidence that amraams could be carried on the inner pylons Eurofighter Typhoon - Nothing Comes Close
Looks to me as if Saudi just uses Paveway IV and Brimstone same as the UK.
I remembered this when even multiple videos was released on YT stating and showing how the Gripen suddenly behaved different, i also noticed it ingame without anything showcased on the changelog. Hope still remains that they can buff some parts to make it more viable in the future until we see the “E” model.
Yeah, Italy’s ISPA4 (MM7306) was used for initial flight test in 2020, as Leonardo were managing the sale of Typhoon to Kuwait who were taking delivery of the planes the year after.
More recent trials have been carried out in Spain with IPA4 as that’s the primary single-seat development airframe for air-to-surface weapons integration.
As far as I know full Sniper integration is still ongoing, but it’s part of P3Eb
