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

What mech scan radar has a scan rate that high (excluding some of the WW2 ones)? 185°/s still makes it the second or third fastest scanning ESA radar in the game.


We are below the bar in every mode for our mechanical scan speed, let alone electronic.

As does literally every other radar in the game…

Elaborate? Very few radars have the ability to significantly (if at all) improve their range by reducing the scan angle. Most of the numbers in use are from sources which aren’t based on a small specialised scan mode.

No radar in the game has it’s detection range affected by the size of the scan pattern you choose.

No ESA radar in the game has it’s range decreased the further the radar beam is off boresight (IRL they all do).

Correct but it’s weird to use the performance of 350km in a very specialised mode (which it hilariously enough doesn’t even have as an option in game) for EVERY mode, where it should be something closer to 200~250 otherwise.

@Gunjob any idea why the scan rate was reduced even further down from its actual rate values?

That range isn’t used in every mode in game though:

  • In HPRF Velocity it is 350 km
  • In HPRF SRC it is 300 km
  • In MPRF it is 150 km

…Correct but the radar can do HPRF TWS (TWS HDN) which gives it a range on a wide scan area that it is totally incapable of irl.

If TWS HDN was limited to the small scan region that can actually achieve a 350km search area irl i’d agree with you, but it’s not

It’s just laziness with making a new model at this point

my exact question as well

but i guess it is so that players have to grind an extra plane for 420k rp before they add the su35 and folder the su30sm2

Well, they actually changed something, because it’s slower.

It is slower. 245 → 185

Simple.

Too much MKM cry.

Didn’t have the Su35 model quite ready yet to make up for the cry.

CTRL+C CTRL+V Su-30sm.

Add the few ready parts of the 35 to the SM2.

Cry stops.

Why when I’m crying they’re not giving me my mk.0? Am I that bad at babycrying meta?

Gotta cry more I guess, like the chinese.

Yes
Pls

Poor those who were expecting the J-10C to be game changer, look at what it is now and what it could have been o7

I was even looking to grind their tree for it, I guess now I look forward to their flankers…

  • nerf scan speed
  • still don’t fix the vertical coverage of the tws
