I suggest using this method on a counterattack after notching. This is a duel situation in 90% of cases. Especially in ASB. In this situation, the average distance between planes is 10-20 km, at this distance the Captor is too slow, and the disadvantages of the PIRATE do not matter.
Why? If you like boxing with your hand tied behind your back, who am I to change your mind?
They gave you a DASS that can detect and defend against missiles. All that’s left is to add an arrow pointing to the ideal evasion trajectory.
In extreme cases, this missile can simply be shot down.
Being able to shoot down missiles that easilly makes the Typhoons 6 120s pretty paltry. That Su-30 could jyst fly straight and level shoot down the 120s and still have 8 missiles to shoot back!
Well… Yeah. If soviet (although considering the flag, it is already “russian”) thinks of that, then Typhoon is in big trouble. I don’t know how to counter the missile-shooting tactic when the enemy has more missiles and a better radar.
In the range of the DASS (10 or so kilometers), you’d be hard pressed to defend against a modern long range IIR missile such as the ASRAAM or MICA, unless you somehow can kinematically defeat them (good luck if the launch is under 20km from you)
As the current game engine stands, you just can’t flare and IIR missile. Ka50 players can discuss it as I have been stomping them with AASM despite their IRCM, which also use an IIR seeker.
I wonder if they’ll implement the IRIS-T + DASS self protection capability.
Would be interesting to see the interplay between the much longer ranged ASRAAM armed Typhoons and the automatic missile shoot-down German/Italian Tyhpoons.
With all the technical limitations of the engine, they either have to rework their engine from the ground up or port the game to an entirely new engine while fixing their code (model/layout) and the concept of their in-game systems at the same time. Both the IR and the RF system (including the RCS mechanic) are in dire need of a major rework.
But all this would take immense time and work and their holy money, so we won’t see this anytime soon.
Apparently Squish got access to documents that others have been kind of keeping to themselves. TLDR his conclusion is the EF in the dev server is overperforming in turn and acceleration. Comparisons to in-game start at 46:30.
No it’s not, let them enjoy their ugly blackhead eurofighter. UK mains with their dumb IRST that I clearly do not want. Stupid pimple face eurofighter with it’s stupid gorgeous wings and canards and such >:(
There is a few things about him i can’t mention on the forums because of the weird forum rules (rule 3.8) but he has always been bad faith
the docs he is talking about in the video are requirements from 1987 years before any of the DA air craft were made and even further away from them having production engines. Documents used to do the performance of the Eurofighter come after this and thats why any attempt to nerf with these docs doesn’t work as all the requirements we meet and acceded
Ohh so the stuff that would actually over stress the poor plane and cause loss of control as it has no means to maintain control after departed flight?
It seems to be a buff, but I can’t tear my eyes away from the maximum number of targets.
Especially if you keep in mind the Su-30SM with its 12 R-77-1. 12 launched R-77-1 plus the Su-30 itself is 13 targets, which is already 3 more than it can handle. And the Su-30 will know that there is a Typhoon in front of it. Because the NCTR, which was added not in the patch when the Typhoon appeared, but in the patch when the Su-30 appeared. Oh, what a coincidence.
where are they even sourcing these changes anymore, I thought it was common knowledge by now that the EFT has a capacity of 20 TWS targets with 6 DL channels and STT mode for 2 of them
“Well, we buffed your target retention. So, for balance, we need to nerf the number of targets.” I think something like that.
What’s interesting is that the TWS on the Mirage 2000С is MUCH nicer than on the Typhoon.
I have had a blast with the AJ37’s 70s era TWS compared to the absolute mess on the Eurofighter, the butchering of this jet has to go down in wt history
