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

also was the hud always capped at 8 degrees of vertical scan? i feel like it used to be more, or maybe im just too used to the rafale…

Any chance the JDAM-ER can be used/reported for the dual bomb racks? They do use the same MK-82 body as PW4 after all. Also, whats the name/manufacturer of those racks? I wasn’t able to find anything when searching for it.

(On another note, do EFs use JDAM-ER at all? This is the first time I’ve seen that anywhere)

Nor could I. I think they added them just to give everyone something and compatibility is technically possible.

And with the fake GPS nerfs. Spear-3s would be worthless to add

They could at least made the effort to add HOSBO then, a roughly equivalent weapon the Eurofighter actually tested =_=

Spoiler

Why are they so lazy sometimes?

Yeah, can’t C&P that though

First sortie of OP Shader for the Typhoons:

Typhoon FGR4s dropped 2x Paveway IVs from (1 from each aircraft) and hit the exact same spot from high altitude. The first burrowed into the ground to clear away the bedrock, the other destroyed the oil pipeline targets.

Yeah, this change is 100% fake

And Typhoon does not have GMTI

(neither does FA2)

Is the radar insanely chittery for anyone else? I know that the missiles dont work currently but my radar on the german Typhoon is jumping targets like crazy without input

it only affects munitions with GPS as a secondary guidace method
so if it was a GPS only SPEAR-3 it wouldnt be affected

Then watch them add SAL+GPS Spear-3s

Wut?

I cannot enter GMTI on the Typhoon or Sea Harrier FA2.

Unless its been given a dedicated keybind

Does not have. On either platform.

Not that I can bring about at any rate. Other platforms with GMTI can cycle it through fine.

Typhoons radar continues to absolutely suck for me, but that’s no different

Temporarily disabled as it was breaking STT and AMRAAM usage. Tried to get it fixed before go live but time ran out.

Bleh, will we get it soon back back or is it hopeless?

They’re by L3Harris (more specifically their Release & Integrated Solutions business down in Brighton)

Is this a bug specifically with the captor or with the GMT in general?

Was removed from FA2/Gripens too, so I guess its more widespread

I can’t be as bad as the AWG-9.
