We need to find the bloke who used to run the typhoon sim at the airshows, I don’t know if any of you have seen it but he was always keen to give out information which he probably shouldn’t have.
Looks like the frontal MAW sensors should also have a longer range than the rear one.
Unfortunately only says the DASS can handle “multiple threats” though :(

Uh oh, it talks about sensor fusion in the brochure,
Let’s not let you know who find this

It’s somewhat hard to talk about a eurofighter sensor without doing so unfortunately lol
Supposedly all of the modules such as MAW and LWR are plug and play, and in the next few years they want to standardise and create a hardware minimum across all 4 countries,
Wouldn’t this suggest Germany could hypothetically get an LWS
Edit: I’ll rephrase that, we know for a fact the German typhoons can mount an LWS because it requires virtually no modification, but I mean Germany could hypothetically receive an LWS in game now, should it ever need one
I do think i would prefer like, some kind of “flavour” distinction between the different typhoons tbh
Absolutely, but logically the more countries that operate a system, the more information there is available for such system

tada
That’s funny, I seem to have the same issue🧐
In-game the FGR.4 has six LWRs. Two are mounted on either side of the nose, giving left/right coverage. Two are above the tail for detection from above, and another two are underneath for lower coverage.
This setup means you can always identify which sector a threat is coming from, and also confirm whether it’s above or below you.
So it’s only missing an elevation cue the sector stuff seems correct to me.

That’s kinda the issue. As modelled it can’t actually manage detections from all 6 as in the files it’s only 4 sensors with no direction finding capability (and an elevation cue would admittedly be nice).
Rafale is, if trusting the report, is supposed to provide exact direction, with 3 heads
So typhoon oens might too, but we would need something for that.

Link?

They just make it up as they go along
Cant use the products own brochure as a trustworthy source. But a video of Rafale at an airshow is suffice?🧐
Your attached source is just some JED magazine? That isn’t a eurodass publication. BRM1# is correct here.
I just realised that I downloaded and reuploaded the file which would have removed that link.
It’s from eurodass.com
Hosted by, not written by. That’s a big distinction.
