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

After new radar changes EFT became much better than before.

People consistently getting more kills in GRB than ever before.

Man i love it, our EFT’s finally got closer to Rafale in terms of radar performance, now all we need is either limited F&F Brimstones or Brimstone2/Spear 3.

I mentioned it earlier but I feel like all the brimstone F&F concerns could be solved by just making it cost a fortune in SP per missile so if you want 18 brimstones you’re basically just buying a nuke and at that point play the nuke.

Or they can just remove ignoring smoke abilities and LOAL, this will make them more balanced but 18 missiles is still an issue in the end.

I mean it cannot be that difficult to implement it the same as spikes and then just give the modern smoke dischargers a radar signature.

Cant wait for the brimstones to be going for smokes deployed by some german main at the edge of the map instead of the spaa you fired at lol.

tbf that would require the angle of half sensitivity to be like… huge.
I suspect it’d be sub 1 degree.

If only Brimstone was working on SAR ATRAI.
Oh wait…

There’s something about Spanish camo that I like.

Side view irl and in game:

I just noticed another modeling error on the Eurofighter.
The horizontal alignment of the flaperons in relation to the fuselage is not accurate, in reality, they are positioned at a tighter angle.
If you see the Eurofighter from above, you can see that the sweep angle of the canards in the game appears to be close to 90 degrees, whereas in reality, they are swept back at a noticeably shallower angle.

Now we have Radar fixes and they are great we need a better missile, 9M and 120A,B and C do not cut it.
A Rafales MICA is superior in every way.

At least now you can see the Rafale before it kills with you with a MICA though ha ha

I’m perfectly alright with 120C but we need a missile actually worth having in a dogfight.

Exactly we use 120s in ground battles and nothing ever connects. 9Ms are ok but not vs MICA and R-77-1

does this mean other radars based on blue vixen (ps/05 mainly) will also get these modes?

Will blue vixen get them is the better question :D

(I didnt actaully check) (edit: just checked, nope, not even the GMTI modes)

PS/05 is just blue vixen at the moment

This is the radar that gripen uses right

Yep, PS/05 is the Gripens radar.

Blue Vixen is the Sea Harrier FA2s radar.

Both the PS/05 and CAPTOR-M are descendants of the Blue Vixen

Oooh thanks for the info
