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

Then what is a KH-38 class of weapon that the EFT could actually get?

Typhoon ASRAAMs?

and even forgetting about GRB for the moment, which unfortunately takes prescedence for any discussion of A2G weapon loadouts. Having a spammable GPS weapon like GBU-39 would open a lot of doors for the Typhoon in ASB, but nope not here yet and the Tornado GR4 is limited to the same gameplay as the tornado GR1 because it has no Brimstones *(that can be used within that gamemode)

Limit is 30km now, and you can use map SPI (just gotta really zoom in for that good placement).

Just wish we had the correct Brimstone 2s that had decent range, speed and prox fuse for dealing with them.

I find if the heli has LWR, they dodge the Brimstones most of the time

We don’t operate that kind of weaponry so nothing.

would the airfield AA show up on the map past 30km? also didnt know they upped the TGP to 30km neat

Unsure, I’d have to check.

imagine if we would get the proxy head capability, intercepting of pantsir missles made even easier

So then its back to asking for SAL-Only Brimstone 2s, SAL+GPS Spear-3s and MMW to be modeled.

All of which has thus far been denied (been asking for Brimstone 2 for the GR4 since the dev server)

well gotta hope for HOSBO, its the closest we are getting

That is somewhat your devide dependent. For example for me they appear <10km. Sometimes even <2km. I do have a Potato 5000 tho.

in ASB?

dont think so and I dont think you would be able to target it accurately enough, would need a DH to get a kill. Still could be used at 30km for that, but just spamming them at the AF for score farming would be their main use like F-15Es do with GBU-39s currently but they have to actually get close

Basically a glide bomb, so while somewhat different in that it can be EO guided, it isn’t meaningfully different in time to target than a PW4 in a in game scenario.

Did they ever make it to production, I’ve only ever seen the inert weapons on displays?

wonder if it would be worth doing in the gripen hmm

Probably

prototypes that were officialy testfired. More then a specific other weapon xD

I don’t have that problem, but I shoot closer to leave some energy for the missile to maneuver

I’ll wait as long as I can, but there comes a point where I need to defend myself. so Im usually forced to fire around 10km I reckon. (let alone if im also simutaneously defending against 2-3 Pantsirs firing at me and what to get the hell out of there)

Yeah 10 is a bit much
I fire at like 5km against helis

Yep, which ive found is a rare luxuary to get that close without having a dozen IGLAs fired at you

Nope, they were at least test fired tho. There’s also a succesor project in development at Diehl and Rafael, called PILUM. But there’s very little info on that out there.
