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

The RDY is a good radar. Captor is a better radar. Calling the captor almost unusable when I do just as fine as you with the RDY is silly. That’s my point

Foxhunter (F3) and Blue vixen (Gripen and FA2) are definetly more consistent radars than the CAPTOR-M at the moment

it be like saying the APG-70 and AWG-9 are more consistent then APG-63(v1)

Am i meant to just learn american radar names? Like i have no clue what any of these are lol.

it is a quite accurate comparison

I just hate tws on the rdy, for some reason it’s only 1 line/bar instead of like 2-5 like on most other radars

Thats one of the positives ironically as it has a much faster scan rate because of it, as unlike the rest it doesnt go over the top and bottom line twice before repeating its sweep (which is stupid and should have been fixed long ago).

it has been fixed

a year ago

After it was wrong (and reported) for over a year ^^

? Theres no way i just haven’t noticed that man… no, no i am that oblivious.

They should just add IRST launch for ARH missiles already.

Truth nuke

Nah, that would be historically accurate.

Depends if we are talking just firing in the approximate direction or actively guiding it, for the EFT and gripen (tho it would not matter much in the usual ranges where the IRST issue comes up, its well within visual range usually, so the missile would instantly go pitbull)

No idea about Gripen, But PIRATE should have a range of 50-80km in poor conditions and up to 150 in optimal conditions

Pirate being able to guide missiles past simply giving the direction of the target before launch is yet to be proven tho. You are strictly speaking of the sensor’s range.

You misspelled CRAPTOR-M

New upscaled Brimstone skins has been dropped if anyone interested.

It contains 3 different colour and honestly looks really nice.

Damn… A way to filter out missiles/rockets from TWS is sorely needed… Have to cycle through 30 missiles to find an enemy plane I can shoot.

Or rocket pods. To make the enemy cycle longer.
