Funfact, there would be another plane which can mount it

Snail, when A320?

Yep, but that one doesn’t belong the the BW and isn’t operated by them either (afaik) and the BW specifically talked about multiple radars
The most situationally aware A320 on the planet.
Imagine some F35 doing a training flight and getting RWR pings from a eurofighter, but command knows nothing about any allied eurofighters in the area
They should 100% give it Meteors for the funny so we could get it as dreams come true in WT
i prefer CAMM test bed :P

Tippy tipper
Did the scan rate go back to 250°/s? I tried playing and it didn’t feel as slow as I thought it would be. Maybe it’s because I’ve been using CAPTOR-M for so long lol.
Nope. still 190.

Ive encountered an interesting issue which im fairly certain should not be happening.
Im stock in the AESA-Phoon, 100% stock, so i have some bombs to do some base bombing to help grind out some of hte mods. But base bombing is an extreme chore because it keeps locking the PIRATE camera onto targets detected by the AESA, which then enables CCRP. Manually placing a CCRP target is instantly overriden as well, which im fairly certain should not be the case.
So you have to switch the radar off to base bomb
I find the F-16s and Su-27/30s much easier to distinguish between since they follow a progressing designation scheme, than the Eurofighters that seem to give up at the beginning and halfway depending on the nation that fields them.
I think ive just gotten a golden Rear-aspect IRCCM failure clip for you:

About 5:15 minutes in
Or heres a clip of the replay
But the AIm-9M behaved like I would have expected an Aim-9L and not an Aim-9M to behave, the seeker clearly did not switch off and instead switched to the flares
Gamelog saved if you want it

Exactly. Blocks for the f-16 and “modernized commercial” (what the m and k stands for the sukhoi variants) followed by a number are much easier to follow than tranche numbers
Well that’s because it doesn’t matter. T1 are restricted in their upgardes, because of the mission computer or smth iirc? And also don’t have the reinforced nose for AESA. Everything built as T2 or later can be upgraded indefinitely, and Germany does upgrade everything (Dunno about the other consortium members), so there’s no need for different designation. At most you would need the Packet it’s been upgraded to (P3E is current, P4E is slowly starting to be rolled out, planned to be finished by 2028).
Tranche numbers don’t matter (Unless it’s T1), they only designate the standard at time of construction. The EFTs are modular enough that they can be relatively easily upgraded to later standards
Just looking at the 420k rp needed for another typhoon.
Any reason other than total Gaijin gread that we needed another jet that only adds a better radar? Could of just upgraded the now completly useless EF instead
We really are a bunch of mugs
Hi @Gunjob if you get a chance you wouldn’t be able to reopen my bug report on Challenger 2 TES/QES hull addon armour backplate the mod didn’t even give me a chance to up load pictures of the covers and all of my sources he just instantly closed it and didn’t even give me a chance !!
It makes documenting different variants a real pain in the backside though, a standardised numbering or letter system just flows so much better.
Pretty sure the Eurofighter website documents pretty well what upgrades are part of which package. But beyond that there isn’t much to it
Not really. Its essentially just a date of construction for the Typhoon and nothing more, everything just gets upgrade.
For in-game its actually good. As we dont have any T1s, all upgrades are the on the table, there is no restrictions on what we could get. Ive seen buffs for other aircraft denied on the grounds that the source doesnt state the variant only the aircraft and the devs “dont beleive it refers to the variant in-game” they cant pull that excuse with the Typhoon
