Because the Typhoons only advantage was to be high and fast and turn well.
That is the Typhoons gameplay.
Now it has been nerfed it’s not as fast and it turns worse.
Likely still has a very buggy Radar and only carries 5 120s.
Gaijin are burying the Typhoon
The Rafale is leaping ahead with constant buffs and the Su-30 will likely be superior. US mains will receive an F-15 with an AESA Radar while Typhoon guys have to struggle with the Craptor.
The su30 will never be superior to anything, even the su35 will be bad compared to the eurofighter/rafale those two will always be the best planes for a long time.
Yeah it will still need time for everything to be fixed, but otherwise eurofighter was late to get any esa radar so your radar will be behind until tranche 4.
There isn’t also anyone favored in terms of bug report and it has a great future instead of 9m it will eventually get iris-t/asraam alongside aim120 so it will be quite versatile.
Yes one day. The flight model is now as accurate as Gaijin want it to be. None of Typhoons upgrades improve the performance (amazing Eurofighter) thought it was good enough!
Su-35 will have similar levels of flight performance to the Typhoon with a superior AESA Radar. Typhoons edge is in sensor fusion passive detection systems and BVRAAMs…
Without ASRAAM and Meteor Su-35 in game will wipe the floor with Typhoon.
I still dont think we are close to IIR missiles or BVRAAMs i see 120C and R-77M as the next step and the buff to MICAs.
I see Su-35 and F-15 this Xmas.
I do not see a Tranche 4 Typhoon any time soon.
I do not see the change to allow Typhoon to carry more than 6 120s and I see the Aim9M as being completely inadequate.
To be fair its not the most suprising thing. Gaijin has added vehicles in states that fit their own standard rather than their historical value. My only question is how long can they drip feed the same vehicle with the only difference being missiles.
Really long if they wanted, by leveraging other improvements like incremental changes in RWR (remember ALR-67V2 vs ALR-67V3) and other systems to squeeze out a ton of variants
Idk remember as stated by Smins own words subsequent differences so one missiles is good enough. Maybe a EFT with only ASRAAM and then maybe with only fox 3 who knows the possibilities are endless /s
Would be interesting to see gaijin take a break from true top tier and start adding prototype missiles stuff like RB 72 (which wouldve been the oldest IRCCM missile had it entered production and not had the US intervene and push for restrictions.) Or we could see gaijin go the Su-25BM route and see 9X and such on small trainer esq aircraft to see how they perform before deciding or potentially try an event? April is just around the corner so i mean it wouldn’t suprise me if they tried another Warthunder 2077 approach with Ace combat esq aircraft.
Hey @Gunjob sorry for the ping, since the Su-30 and, I think, the J11B got their Hud tints modelled correctly, is there any chance we can expect the same for the Eurofighters?
