Eurofighter Typhoon (UK versions) - Technical data and discussion (Part 2)

image is not correct

Thought so…

just dont mind there being a rafale there, its the default 3d model statshark uses in the sensor viewer

Didnt notice that, but Mytho has answered, (submits a bug report anyway :P )

Yeah same coverage I was thinking i was sure i had seen it before i just dont have the image for it

RWR and LWS are spherical

As it stands in game it makes more mistakes than correct responses. I’m still having it go off because of countermeasures sometimes despite that being “fixed” thrice.

They also need to allow for custom CM release patterns for MAWS.

Id have it spam out chaff, but I only want it to drop a fairly slow pattern of flares

There’s already a similar feature to this where you can select the timing of your countermeasures, doesn’t work though lmao

Yeah exactly. Though I also wish the periodic CM release had settings independent for Flares and Chaff and we had seperate keybinds for enable each, rather than having cycle selected CMs

Yeah, that would be extremely helpful, I also want them to add countermeasure series to the jets, because rapid tapping the countermeasure buttons is gonna break my keyboard someday.

Ive also wanted an accessibility setting so that the CM button can be toggled to just be press & hold

There is a suggestion for it

Oh nice, yeah, this is extremely helpful, having to tap the countermeasure button 4 times for the bol pod countermeasure just to have the same countermeasure effectiveness of one large caliber counter measure is ass, not to mention that the bol pod countermeasures lasts a lot less more that normal and large caliber countermeasures, so being able to hold the countermeasure button to rapidly release countermeasures would help. I hope the Devs add this, they should add this, especially if they don’t want to revert the bol pod countermeasure nerfs.

Technically its more like 22x iirc (assuming BOL is single release) for chaff

sad noises

but yeah, its a really sensible addition

It’s that bad? Yikes.

BOL chaff is currently 1/4 the strength of a regular chaff (should actually be marginally stronger)

and iirc, someone previously told me that large chaff was about 5.5 x more effective than a regular chaff.

If that is true, then 4x5.5 is 22. meaning 1x large chaff in theory drops the same amount of chaff as 22 BOL currently.

So yeah, unless ive made a mistake somewhere… the current state of BOL is extremely bad. Though thankfully, with how its all modeled, that amount isnt required.

afaik, there Is no difference or very little in effectiveness between bol chaff, large caliber chaff etc.

That only applies to flares

they are definetly modeled to release different amounts of chaff and thus the subsequent RCS signature is smaller

Wait… Did the very detailed forum post about the ahistorical BOL nerf from Flame2512 get deleted? I can’t find it anymore and every old link points into nowhere (“Oops! That page doesn’t exist or is private.”).
