Eurofighter Typhoon (UK versions) - Technical data and discussion

even more hopeful that its going to arrive ingame. Being forced to guess if what im looking at is Su34 or Kh38 from 15km distance while seeing S1 on RWR is not incredible.

I mean, the display gunjob posted (the one on the right atleast) looks like it could be implemented in-game by overlaying radar returns and radar azimuth over an in-game map, which would actually be really nice as it would allow for visualization of the threats exact location and therefore planning around what geographical features they have to their disposal.

It would be really nice to have, as atm, I only find 2 of the MFD displays are of any use on the EFT, those being the radar B-scope display, and the DASS format. Third screen is a waste atm, since;

  • The map doesnt show the proper features to be of much use and changes scale with altitude
  • HUD display is pointless (not even sure why its an MFD display in-game at all…)
  • TGP cant be controlled properly from in cockpit, so the TGP display is largely pointless anyways
  • Stores display, though cool looking, offers no additional info to the EFT, particularly since the EFT has the wonderful feature of showing the selected weapon and remaining number of said weapons in the HUD and HMD

More functional MFD, such as radar profile, radar C-scope, and radar azimuth over map (if the map was given the gridlines as seen in-gamer and if the screen scaled with the radar range) would be wonderful imo.

Also, only MFD 1 works correct with the TGP
Its the only one who shows you were it is actually looking, MFD 2 and 3 display only where the TGP is looking, aslong TGP 1 also shows it, otherwise they wont move and only loock were the Nose is pointing

Sounds like a bug. Has it been reported? I wonder if it also impacts other aircraft with multiple MFDs.

No clue(atleast its not on my list), noticed it myself like an hour ago in SB

Ill be honnest, sounds like such a minor and inconsequential bug that Id rather it not be bug reported for now and focus be put on the other MFD’s that have genuine effects on your situational awareness. The addition of more useful MFD’s, fixing the RWR contact list for the DASS format MFD, stuff like that.

Just found this from one of the EFT bug reports, this screen MFD display wasnt added in-game (which is tragic):

Radar profile view.

Also of note, the little blurb about it mentions the cursor in it is for target selections, the same cursor seen in the DASS format, further suggesting the DASS format should be able to slave the radar, which would help IMMENSELY in sim.

Yeah, the buttons lost backlighting and stuff. Weird to see the cockpit get worse on live…

another bad take om mig_23m i see.
the guy always acts like he knows so much but mostly speaks crap, honestly its annoying with his half knowledge and claims that just arent true, not like thats a minority either but is a general occurance that the guys thats about stuff thinks he is ohhh so right, just to be completly wrong

Scribbles down yet another aspect of the Typhoon the poster in question has decided to declare is impossible.

Has he claimed it can’t fly yet?

Well, thats an good one xD

Not a good idea to bash on him. He’s likely just trying to start drama in the thread to get it closed or something. Credit where credit is due, he’s a master at skirting forum rules and instigating toxicity to get ppl suspended and threads locked when he doesnt like them.

Better to just block him and ignore his garbage.

Clearly, the claim its a fighter jet is a manufacturers lie, its obviously a quadriplegic mouse

Europe. Build a plane that can fly.

You need to stop believing those marketing lies. The Eurofighter Typhoon is clearly in the wrong tree and should be our top tier IFV

Eurofighter - Inability to fire AMRAAM from PIRATE IRST lock answer:
"Dev’s response:
In order to fully issue target designation, missiles with ARLGSN require the speed of approach to the target, and the range.
And the PIRATE OLS can only approximately estimate the range through triangulation, and for this it is necessary to perform certain maneuvers. The report does not say that the AIM-120 can be launched based on target designation from the OLS, not a mistake.

At the same time, the OLS can transmit target designation for missiles with IR homing heads in the game, so the current implementation does not contradict the data from the report."

Which bases on this:

Eurofighter - PIRATE missing passive ranging capability and here the answer is:
“Right now it’s impossible to implement, will be implemented in the future.
Report has been converted into suggestion.”
