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

German premiums are better although the Italian MiG 29 would be the one for me if I was starting again.

Ah, forgot they got a new prem

oh wow i forgot about that one

Germans got a new one at the same BR as the Italian (Romanian) MiG-29 as well didn’t they? early Swiss F-18C.
I’d have thought that would be the most capable premium to get towards one of the three Typhoons


Not 100% sure but i did this in a sim match alittle while ago.

mmm, at least form my test flight testing with the american one, the F-18 feels kinda boaty imo, didn’t really feel comfortable reccomending it personally Plus kinda forgot about it lmao

We are getting auto PRF?

ASB or ARB?

ASB, then Harrier T-10, Harrier Gr1, Sea Vixen are all fairly decent grinders.

ARB, it gets a little tricky. T-10 is pretty solid but struggling with the Harrier nerfs at the moment. but you will be forced into a bit of a specific playstyle. But with the F-18s being 12.7, you shouldnt be dragged up too often.

But its a real shame we dont have something like a Premium Tonka or Buc

Do you mean the American prem F18? Cause the swiss one got the updgraded engines, so it should fly a bit better

We already have while in STT. I’m not talking about Auto ACM.

Oh. I thought maybe you meant Auto-PRF in TWS

Typhoon is still toilet water the speed loss from turning is ridiculous. Radar I expected to be terrible and it is.

Turned once while defending at 35kft and lost mach 0.7!

Yet Rafale looses next to nothing. These double standards are exhausting

LOL ofc right as i buy the pathway to stars pack a better f18 comes out im so dead XD

the ef walks all over the f2

well its currently the second best plane in the game (good) and people complain about it not being good enough 24/7 so

Should’ve abused the Harrier GR.1 when that first came out, had entire teams of them :p

when did it come out, i surely was not aware war thunder even existed back then

2020

yes back then i was in tf2 comp scene, didnt know war thunder was a thing lol

The Typhoon is missing so much performance
The Radar, the FM it is largely an unifinished unrefined mess.

Gaijin wont fix it they gave us 120C and said there you go.

Rafale is the benchmark. If Rafale is a 10/10
Typhoon is a 6/7 in line with or just above the Su-30SM.

Typhoon is fast and will turn well once/twice before it’s AOA/instructor engine thrust “feature” drains it off energy.

If Rafale is the 10 then Typhoon should be closer to 9.5 and it just isn’t

well the rafale is massively over-performing currently in str so i find it very hard to believe that the eurofighter, a plane that currently has near identical performance in game to the rafale, that has a very similar design and wingloading and twr isnt also over performing by some degree.

what?

the issue here is that rafale is just in a different league to every other airplane rn, the performance gap between everything other than the rafale is close enough to where if the rafale was nerfed the game would actually be in a pretty healthy state balance wise. so making the ef just as good as the rafale is just going to make the game absolutely miserable for everyone who isnt in either an ef or a rafale. whats even worse is that the ef is 3 tech trees which basically means you are always going to be fighting them. the solution is not turbo buff the ef, that is only ever going to make the game worse.
