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

Uh. Id have to check, let me look

So then I do not understand the issue

That PIRATE is gimped and missing a huge chunk of its IRL functionality and only retains the functionality that can be achieved with a Tpod.

Especially if the Rafale gets IRST, then the FLIR should be changed to IRST until such time its possible to model both.

Guys, what evidence we have that would help us to get additional aim-120’s?

Yup, just checked myself, its the same. Other thing is, it had specific stats on russian dev stream, including support for 6 DL fox3s, blue vixen gets 4. So its either copy pasta code with different description or we are cooked.

Nothing special, like actual real life photo.

18 brimstones max, 12 without using the AAM pylons.

Sounds like a half-placeholder. Blue vixen with a few tweaked numbers at the moment

Sweet. I can definetly see those being equipped in sim and ARB…especially if we get Brimstone 2s and prox fuse

So actual IRST?

looks like, gonna check range/capability in test flight (2 scan patterns, 64x30 and 30x30)

Awesome. That’s a major relief. We all feared it was gunna be FLIR

Anyone able to tell me PIRATE, Range and gimbal limits? Also can it lock onto flares and does it have TWS?

Looks like 180 degrees horizontal and 75 vertical (60/-15). Not sure about flares, locked a head-on MiG-15 at ~9km, provided range and bearing data.

Edit: will probably be low quality for a while but a quick-ish test https://youtu.be/Te6Oc3630nc

You couldn’t lock it before 9km?

Also thanks, annoyingly as im on console no dev access for me.
