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

Why doesn’t Typhoon AESA have Aim-120D’s? It has them or used to have them IRL no? The US originally only gave the License to one country which was the UK because it was the only country it trusted it with, then gave it to Australia but now lots of countries have it. We used them before we used Meteors?

If they did use them, which they didn’t - it doesn’t matter. D variant offers nothing.
Just wait for Meteors…

A. They didnt use them.
B. Gaijin added them to make weaker airframes like the hornets more competetive which the EFT doesnt need

Fair. I always thought they used them.

I’m talking about in-game state of affairs.

Ordered, not delivered. If we are strictly speaking limiting it to actually in service loadout then no, they wouldnt Also they are Brimstone 3s not the 1s we have currently. Though that would also exclude Spice-250s from Germany too

I have a 100% effective tactic for playing the Typhoon in GRB.

Spoiler

Dont play above 10.7 in GRB

C8s are the latest known AMRAAM actually operated on the Typhoon (which would still be an upgrade over the C5s) and D/D3s are probably compatibile, but why fit D3s when you can fit Meteor

True, though going purely on loadout not equipment here.

*everyone else loses all their radars

But that aside I think the weapons balancing is fine. Now that enhanced paveways are in there’s no longer the double standard GBU-48s produced so I have no issue with the loadouts beyond lore accurate brimstone please please please please

never coming lmao

No we all lose them IF were strictly talking in service. The first ones are probably going to be the ECRS Mk1s on the German Quadriga EFTs this year

Surely the new spaa that’s almost able to get a nuke with intercepts alone would justify brimstones……

Unless Gaijin redacts their previous statements. And the new pantsir was for the SLAM ER. If radar brimstones get added, Russia has to get another better SPAA

Truly whatever would the Russia mains do against a subsonic cruise missile… unplayable really.

That aside…

Watch Gaijin reject the C-RAM because it would crash the servers. But this would be funny to drive around

I see no reason why they would considering the rather plentiful number of M61s we have in game

These are the devs who can’t model Turm III turret while someone on WTLive did it in a couple hours. Never fails to surprise me what comes next.

Malaysia didn’t even ordered KH-38MTE for their Su-30MKM yet they recieved it in game due to technical capability.

Same goes for every Eurofighter Typhoon, if its capable it will get it, trying to imply strict rules are way past beyond at this rate.

Seriously dont understand your obsession about nerfing other Eurofighter’s capabilities while UK already has the best version and has access to same ordinance.
