i think they license built it for the f-4f ice
That or a Gen 5 airframe you need to protect the airframe providing data link
And over horizon shots you need a pretty powerful Radar
I know Meteor and JTAM have LOAL modes
Is there not Radar conformity in Typhoons?
Are there any russian jets that can? Or US? If not, forget about getting radar with which you will notch enemy radars - missiles while guiding yours. we will be gaijined.
Pretty much everything in link-16 can provide data, fighters, ground radars, sam sites, ships via gates, awacs. Unless you are able to fully jamm datalink channels, you simply cant shut it down. Some planes are more limited in donating data than others like F16 donating only target which is being tracked but then stuff like hornets can donate their scan. You can reduce range, sure, but not the advantage it gives.
Apologies, it is getting harder and harder to make a point to you freeaboos about anything anymore, I stated why 14.0 should include both F-15c and E and if you aren’t willing to give me a constructive or valuable point against then stop bothering
Before adding more modern military vehicles, why don’t we change the way war thunder is played. Both in game modes and also in new bigger maps that would allow our newer and more advanced jets to employ there systems to their full extent instead of point and shoot sub 50km missile spams.

We need a single dynamic mode for BRs 12.0 and above, working like EC but with an AWACS and SAM
sights to provide zones of hostility within the map, and residing in those zones can be strategic targets that require bombing/destroying (thus giving CAS/Interdictor aircraft a role in top tier) and then a role for fighters/interceptors to allow those strike aircraft to hit the targets without dying to enemy fighters, while destroying enemy strikers and fighters.
Kind of a rough proposal but it promotes teamwork again, a trait all but forgotten in air rb, alongside a more dynamic and interesting match for everyone involved.

I posted a combined arms mode in my newest post that would have this only in more details and evolving over an entire military operation carried out by two teams 50 each of actual players.
since eft will be significantly better than the current ingame f15c and e in air to air, it should be at a higher BR than them. whether this is leaving the f15c/e at 13.7 and putting EFT at 14.0 or putting F-15C/E at 14.0 and putting EFT 14.3, in their current implementation they should be lower than the EFT in BR
It would mean a restructuring of rewards for the mode and a server improvement to handle larger lobbies and maps, but something needs to improve because air rb is getting stale for missile combat

Thats not how gaijin balances their game, you might just have to bite the bullet and accept that you won’t have the peak of the meta for a patch or two
if they degimped the C itd be much fairer though EFT is still gonna be very good
They are already comparable, plus I dont doubt gaijin will cripple the typhoon like they have the gripen, the F-15E/C are already 14.0 material, typhoon or not
ok so ppl are talking about how it can pull 9g until its fuel runs out, can carry same amount of ARH, and can supercruise, has a better mechanical radar, but also say its comparable to the C and E ingame
at the very least let us have the realistic radar advantage over early typhoons
Su-57 has that capability with side arrays
Because it will serve the same role in the game, and a majority will play it exactly the same as the E, in which an early typhoon is practially identical, given it has 4 AMRAAMs and 4-6x IR missiles but on addition likely aim-9Ms
so now expected playstyle is the defining factor for whether an aircraft is equal or not? and i know its able to carry more than 4 amraams you are severly downplaying its capacity for ARH. once they come in close the typhoon has every advantage
It can carry 6 AMRAAM its actual flight performance aswell eclipses the F15-E in terms of manoeuvres and acceleration only place it don’t is top speed. Doesnt matter if it can play the same it will do it far better not to mention its also having better countermeasures suite and IRST
