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

I thought we agreed on Goldfish-M?

*Goldfish-M

The frequency has nothing to do with the beam-width, beam-agility and multi-beam-capability though?

Goldfish is forgetting fast, but at least it has eyes to see. I’d call AIM-7 a goldfish.

excellent

perfectly intended, now time for another craptor e nerf before it even releases

I have no idea. That’s why it’s a “question.” A point arose where three of my half-knowledges intersect:

  • The high-frequency pulse has a long range and is excellent at “seeing” approaching targets, but it’s terrible at detecting targets with low or negative closing velocities. The mid-frequency pulse has a shorter range, but it has a very small closing velocity blind spot and can track and track targets with negative closing velocities. And I don’t remember what the low-frequency pulse does.
  • I know that the Captor-M can change its frequency right in the middle of the scan line if it needs to.
  • I know that our different pulse frequencies are strictly separated by radar operating modes.

The real question was how to implement Captor’s ability to use any frequency at any time. The simplest answer seemed to me to be the simultaneous operation of all three modes, fusion of their results, and displaying the processed information on the MFD. In my opinion, this compensates for the weaknesses of the HPRF, MPRF and LPRF.

when the update is live, can someone let me know if they do any last minute radar changes like they did on the j10c? im conking out

its radar got nerfed (or fixed) it has an azimuth coverage of ±70* instead of ±85*

Here, a ° for you to grab :)

Yup, saw that. Not quite what I intended by that statement but hey at least our radar is the best at something lol

AIM-9M broken again… Shot from 250 meters behind a MiG-29. MiG-29 starts flaring the moment the missile is 150 meters behind it and the AIM-9M starts wiggling into the direction of the flares before going back to the target. Still hit it but it was very close… This behavior equals the R-60(MK).
Additionally the MiG-29 didn’t maneuver at all and was flying in a straight line as its tail controls were destroyed by gunfire before.

The wiggle of death

Something some may have missed, all typhoons lost their 9Ls.

Fully expecting a nerf, new EF slaps in SB

Only managed a couple games over my lunch break, but very impressed with ECRS so far. Incredible radar set.

So much more situational awareness and AMRAAMs seem to be hitting more, maybe due to DL from the new radar

Yeah I noticed they have more energy in terminal for BVR shots now. 100% has to be the better corrections from the radar resulting in less wasted energy.
