Eurofighter Typhoon (UK versions) - Technical data and discussion (Part 1)

Should be using three dimensional predicted impact with ground avoidance and and time delay…

I know some missiles in game use predicted impact point guidance, but they are surface launched.

But that is neither here nor there,

The PID values can easily be adjusted to account for signficant differences, as the game does not simulate proportional navigation realistically.

Cant wait untill they add the asraam, due to the fin size we dont believe it can turn and therefore introduced it as an unguided rocket.

Luckily we have primary source documents showing it can turn at 50g.

Thats some good news!

also question ive seen people say it would be unhistorical for gaijin to give us only 6 Mode 2 brimstones? I dont see how when you could just take the other 12 as Mode 1 and boom the reasoning? the brimstones were set up before launch like that

I’d hope it was done via SP cost not hardpoints restrictions because it would infuriating in other gamemodes

Yeah, make the 18 brimstone load out cost 2000sp.

Yep, or there or there abouts.

We believe the 50g figure is from dual plane control and the pull in game will be 35g

So basically magic 2 manoeuvrability?

You G limits isn’t the turning circle right

I mean aoa/fin angle + thrust vectoring matters, is why r73 has a smaller radius than say an r77 even though r77 has higher g load.

But generally what kind of manoeuvrability can we expect from the asraam? From what I can tell, most people say it’s one of the lesser manoeuvrable modern ir missiles and trades that for range like the 27et

So does speed

Who’s we? Anyway the minimum launch range of ASRAAM in the beam aspect (i.e. a situation where the missile has to start turning after launch) is less than the minimum launch range of AIM-9L. As ASRAAM is a lot faster than AIM-9L (and faster = larger turn radius at same g), I doubt that would be possible if the missile could only pull 3g more than AIM-9L.

It’s biggest strength is also it’s greatest weakness. It’s extremely fast off the rails and accelerates quickly. Which means off the rails it has a larger turning circle to its contemporaries like the MICA or IRIS-T.

But it can and still will engage targets in a 360° envelope around the typhoon, just takes a little longer. But it’s main potency will be in destroying aircraft long before they even get a chance to fire

Its a joke, hes writting what gaijins statement will likely be.

Meet the manpads and dual plane BS

He’s quoting the devs and their ‘we believe this is clear marketing lie’ , misunderstanding/ infamous line.
