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

To be fair, my first two deaths were a failed RWR (the R-77-1 flew in in absolute silence) and a failed DASS (the R-27ER was not detected by Doppler radar. Both the DASS and the Captor-E were unnoticed).
Overall, I think the ability to launch the AIM-120 without launch angle limitations would greatly benefit all aircraft using this missile. Because, damn, that’s stupid. A missile that doesn’t lock onto its target before launch somehow has the same limitation as one that requires lock-on before launch. I might be misinterpreting the logic of the proof, but you have to prove presence, not absence, right?
The second option, less realistic (right now), is the ASRAAM. Dueling firefights at ranges up to 40 km are quite its forte. As I mentioned above, ALL the parts for this missile are already in the game, just in different missiles. And you can simply not implement (for now) a powerful seeker head - if I’m not mistaken, that’s what they did with the Magic 2.

Kind of the issue
In Gaijins eyes Su-35 will be superior to anything NATO can produce.

Gaijin don’t understand like the F-15 these legacy 80s designs can only be developed to a point.

The scan speed nerf is confirmed to not be a bug. The devs “don’t believe” the E-scan rate and set it to the 190/s M-scan rate so we just get screwed ig.

Which is one of the funniest things ever. The SU35 and its predecessors are not bad aircraft by any metric. But they are definitely not superior to anything NATO can produce.

I am also not saying the inverse is true, where the sukhois are garbage and a single typhoon can wipe whole squadrons from the sky.

Simply that, if anything, these aircraft would be level.

Realistically, an airframe that is aproximately 10 years younger, and had more money thrown at it, and was developed by a whole bunch of world renowned systems and aircraft development companies. should most likely be better than a jet where there was less money involved, with older tech. (even if you account for the obvious monetary inefficiencies that come with multinational bureaucracy)

how so ? meteor would break the game. unless they add more missiles n bigger maps.

Honestly, if they’re anywhere near as easy to dodge as AMRAAMs are (they will be, because gaijin will probably just copypaste the seeker like they did 120C), METEOR will change literally nothing as 16km warning is more than enough.

how so? How would a, basically, longer range AMRAAM break the game?

you can say the same for everything then aim120d/pl15/pl17/r77m/r37m everything except mica ng. cus they all have the same seeker head performance

The most accurate copy paste would be a MICA seeker

METEOR uses an improved METEOR MICA seeker

Isnt there already a report for that somewhere?

Might wanna check with Gunjob, might already be an internal report before submitting one. I just swear ive seen it discussed before

idk

but its a nice piece of hud footage i wanted to share

also i used that to try to get the HUD unstreatched maybe now it will get fixed (it probably wont)

i think they should “draw” a better radar for all EFT’s.
as they already did with western Taiwan.

Yeah, no idea why they wont fix the HUD, surely it cant be that hard to do

Took them long enough.
