Eurofighter Typhoon (UK versions) - Technical data and discussion

Yep, shall write one tomorrow.

Is there any difference between the italian and british typhoon other than the laser warning?

Well, I’ve experienced both. Which is obviously pretty damn bad. But no.

I’ve had issues with missiles just not launching, even though I’ve had both TWS softlock and acquired hard lock.
This has happened with both amraam as well as aim-9’s, 90% with the amraam though.

So with this happening with fox-2’s. It’s not entirely the radars fault as even with an IRST lock,if the switch from radar to IRST happens.
the IR’s would have fired. But I’ve experienced this in 1/4 of my matches.

so wait a minute we have a problem with the radar underperforming and they nerf it even more, isn’t it considered the best of the best as normal PD radar ?

Not really a nerf… In some regards a pretty big buff actually.

This is why I hate content creators like Mattawg who just put out slop after they see “hurr durr numbers got lower, must be a nerf”

i dont watch him any more i just saw the scan zones and the power output

Is the EEGS accurate? How do I use the gun sight on targets? The piper line is very sensitive and all over the place.

Also, is the PIRATE/Tpod supposed to lock onto your currently locked target? Mine doesn’t in a soft or hard lock.

Also got an issue when trying to guide weapons with the Tpod, it doesn’t want to go all the way to it’s negative vertical limit, it refuses to look aft and keeps jumping forward.

Yes and No, EEGS works best with smooth motion by both you and the target. The more erratic either or both of you are the more inaccurate it will get.

Does the EFT not have an actual gun piper for radar locked targets or do you just have to get the end of the tail over the target?

The funnel/line EEGS’s are very laggy in general, in reality they should be far smoother.

Only the tea making facilities in the cockpit 😜

Surely, tea-making facilities and the fact that every RAF fast jet is flown by the reincarnation of Biggles himself with a raffish moustache and a penchant for disrupting the nefarious plans of foreigners.

Just me then? Every RAF pilot I’ve come across seems to play to the stereotypes anyway…

Ppl are starting to notice that on his videos

I mean, Matt has been like this for a while.
His content creation style is to pump out as much videos as he can in the shortest amount of time, so he picks up on every little thing regarding War Thunder, for example things said by smin, changes by gzsabi in the datamines, etc. the problem with this is he essentially doesn’t do his research on what some changes actually mean, feeding false information, or he misinterprets what tech mods/smin say and end up feeding false hope to his audience, all in pursuit of uploading as soon as possible.

I don’t even want to go into his speculation videos of “5th gen is coming when” or “what would this fighter be like if added.” They contain many mistakes as well, and he always makes some bad/weird take.

I’m going to leave it here, since this is the EFT forum.
I’m just happy that EFT is actually getting its radar tweaked to not be completely terrible.

Fair enough, speaking of which, how’s the eft radar now after the changes?
