Yeah…
Tonkas just need ALARM and BL755/JP233s (and German ones can get AGM-88 and BL755/MW-1)
Typhoon should just get SAL Brimstone 2s, GNSS Spear-3s and IR Spear-Glides.
Job done. No MMW needed

I kinda think we should have something like that though, which implements MAWS tracks, detected RWR pings and engagement zones of SPAA etc like the real EFT scope.
Maybe that’s too in-depth but at least giving you 360 degree coverage would be a good prep.
Horrific. Unplayable, even.

yeah its winrate is alomst as low as 65%
To be honest I don’t think the 90 degrees of the radar scope is going to change the gameplay that much, having an aesa is going to be much bigger than the gimbal limit. For example, the last plane in the game to have a 90 degree radar limit was the mig-29smt on release, and we all know how garbage that plane was even though it had both the best radar missile and best radar in the game at that time.
Really enjoyed the EFT FM in Bullet Hell, most of time if a fight isn’t going your way, you just leave haha. Really shows the power of the EJ200s.

Depending on possible upgrades for this engine ^^

I need an EFT with all the T5 upgrades, as well as EJ230 and AMK and maybe even the TVC nozzle.
Just to see what it could do.

not until gaijin reworks how TVC works on planes
it would be nothing but a detriment in its current implementation
Indeed thats true, TVC normally supplements standard controls iirc they optimised the EFT one to provide the minimal speed loss possible during inputs at high speed in coordination with traditional flight control surfaces.
In game you just bleed everything and EFT already has a slight issue with speed bleed/regain after a turn.
Because among other things the thrust-loss after a high-g maneuver is still not fixed…
This was explored, it was just loss from slowing down at high AOA, less speed > less air in the engine > less thrust, there isn’t anything to fix.
Where muh PGM 500 (totally game changing trust)

Then it should hit other planes just as hard or even harder? Especially those with the intakes at the sides and not at the bottom because the airstream is hindered there.

Full strength PGMs would be nice for SEAD in ASB if nothing else. Shame their range is so massively nerfed
It’s the same on all planes, once you slow from say 1200kph to 600kph you will have the same thrust as if you were flying 600kph.
Looking at the thrust output after a 12G+ turn and dumping loads of speed and thinking it must be some spooky bug. Its not, you just slowed down.

Is that not the point of the variable lip intake?

Have to test that again, but I had the impression my F-15E accelerated without much delay at a tremendous rate after a high-g turn and a bigger slowdown than in the EF, while the EF accelerates slower (at higher speeds than the F-15E) but gets faster the moment it picks up speed again.
Nothing like that is modelled, if you are at 40° AOA @ 600Kph, you have the same thrust as level flight @ 600Kph. You’re all just learning on the fly what high instantaneous turn does to your airspeed.
