Honestly, my mind is blown.
The loss of thrust is due to speed not aoa
Even then the loss is to high at Mach 2 it shoould still have 90% of its thrust
Let’s all Raise a glass to the French weeb that made all this possible. Three Cheers for the Bossman.

I am fully aware of that… but doing a 180 turn at a high alt going around 1.7ish mach would get me to lose an incredible amount speed compared to other aircrafts which I find it weird when the turn radius is not as tight as before. But you know, not a engine expert so yeah,
Somebody compare to the rafale since it’s the most comparable delta wing that can go same speed and altitude
Thanks.
P.S. Someday, someday…

roughly 8.5km mach 1.7 180 then acceleration back to mach 1.7 (same crew) Watch ef vs ralph | Streamable

What is your findings?
eurofighter dose lose more speed when holding s compared to rafale, but it is also doing about 1deg/s more than the rafale. if you were to do a more thorough test my guess would be they are about equal.
Maybe, there is also the thrust recovery time which seems substantially greater in the Typhoon from what others have said before on this matter and in my own personal experience, it feels rather sluggish to begin accelerating at times.
It is certainly worth a thorough investigation
Wow what a trip!
That lead pilot could fly this route with his eyes closed
I do like the blue/grey scheme the Luftwaffe use for Typhoons.
OK, so why is the thrust 10% lower than when you are at 0 speed.
what?
it the first one zero airspeed/ static thrust?
