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

None easily found but they are bound to be out there somewhere. Maybe @Gunjob has some or has some allowed documents including them? (You must have the equivalent to the Library of Alexandria as a tech mod full of documents.)

But it’s safe to say it does have a MAWS page IRL or the HMD showing the same data.

When looking though I did find this image from a Typhoon sim showing the map MFD and also what looks like a camera MFD on the right display. Not sure exactly what camera is being shown there if any at all, if it is then either it’s a TGP or PIRATE’s cockpit display for target ID.

Spoiler

Fairly certain there is a source for it on the HMD. so 100% that. But Id assume its on the MFD or at least combined with another MFD page. Probably dispalyed on the RWR page

Most likely yeah, makes sense for it to be displayed there instead of on separate screens. Might as well combine the two into one for the sake of ease.

It doesnt have a dedicated MAWS display irl, I know that much. IRL, the data should/would be shown on the DASS format (handles all defensive system info) and/or the Pilot Awareness format (tactical info + nav info + radar/target info all overlayed over map). Might even show up on the attack formats seeing as the sensor fusion of the EFT combines all available sensor info to create system tracks, so things the radar hasnt scanned or picked up might still show up on the attack formats to allow ease of pointing for the primary fire control sensors.

Unfortunately though, I haven’t found any pics of incoming missiles shown on any of the formats besides the DASS format with what I presume to just be the bog standard ARH missile incoming displayed, which isnt of any use.

Surely it can be assumed that is a non-ARH missile, as it has no track symbology attached to it?

The green arrow indicates the missile is being actively jammed by the EFT, so its def an ARH.

Oh fair enough, then the in-game missile symbology is wrong?

I dont actually remember what the ingame missile symbology is off the top of my head, I have played the EFT in probably something like 6+ months at this point cuz of the VR bugs. All I remember is that the MAWS definitly does not show any non-ARH missiles on any of the MFDs.

Don’t these arrows show the targets’ positions in space? The thicker and bolder the arrow, the greater the difference in altitude.

iirc green arrow means jamming and red arrow is being jammed by

I’m also not entirely sure how you’d end up below a SAM

is it possible to create a user mission with the eurofighter thats equipped with iris-t (rb98) instead of aim9s?

No reason why it wouldn’t be possible…

There might already be one on WT Live, but I don’t remember if the EFT is the in-game one or the user model made by Noffie…

It is the usermodel

Nice video of an EF dropping BOL flares

thought that was a Tornado?

But otherwise yes, its a good demo of what BOL should look like and how large of a IR signature it should be producing

Is it dispensing multiple flares at once? Looks like a big cloud

theyre little packets (forget what theyre made of) but it tears open when its dispensed and reacts with the air so its basically just a cloud of hot glitter, but it looks like 2-3 pops at a time

Those are low signature. Not even a glow on the airframe that could let us identify it lol.
