@Gunjob @Flame2512 didnt the mk 2 radar need a new eurofighter cone, cause its bigger?
If so isnt the model currently faulty?
Qute sure it needed new nose cone in order to allow for EW usage, not because of the size.
There was some website explaining it, but i cant find it.

The model is faulty anyways, it looks nothing like ECRS lol
METEOR with canards?
Its an IRIS-T (but I think with a protective nose cone?)
It’s also not conventionally known for its intakes.
Then what are the strakes on top then?
not an IRIS-T
They’re not strakes, they’re full canards which was why I asked. Is that some pre-production METEOR you’ve found??

Nah, it doesn’t look anywhere close
The nose looks like a regular Meteor
And the little black rectangles at the front are the same
It’s a meteor
Found this image to support that it did indeed have front fins at a time tho
Fins might have been removed for better fitting to EF recesses because the fins seem to be at a different location than on an Aim-120

Well ZK315 is actually a Tranche 2 so has a GPS antenna behind the cockpit
So if this ticket gets fixed, I will probably be porting this to the AESA jets.
As it stands, I’m pretty sure all previous FGR.4 camos can be ported simply by changing the .blk file name to ef_2000_typhoon_aesa.blk and the “from:t=” paths in the file from typhoon_fgr4_c/typhoon_fgr4_n to typhoon_aesa_c/typhoon_aesa_n since there’s not really any external difference in the models that I can see. So I don’t know if it’s worth actually publishing camos for the AESA one, instead of just adding instructions in the description for how to edit the .blk to get them to work.

Forwarded, would be nice to have some physical details to set them apart, I also logged one for the half missing flash on the tail.

Hey pilots. So with the AESA or (Late),or whatever it ends up being, us German pilots get one with the PIRATE IRST on it. So how good is that in the ARB? I used to use IRST on the Mig23 and even sometimes on the Mig29 to do long range shenanigans with the R27ET’s but seeing as how I only have AIM9Ms I could just as easily queue them up with the HMD as normal.
Is there any actual benefit to it? Thanks
You know what… if they made this bigger i could get used to it.
That should be a super early prototype or mock-up Meteor.
This is a picture shows the Eurofighter Development Aircraft DA7, that was retired in 2007. I’m pretty sure that was just a fitting test or advertisement photo taken before 2005.
Photos like this exist for many weapons during the 1994-2007 period when a lot of weapons were planned to be integrated/in development/offered for integration and things nowadays just look different
