Eurofighter Typhoon (UK versions) - Technical data and discussion

alarming


It’s funny to see SEVENTEEN G’s on the F-16-15.

Off what he said that would put raptor at like 14.3 currently

That’s what I’m concerned about. You assume that F-22 is lower than 17.0 = you have a problem

How the hell are we going from 14.0 to 17.0 by December?

It’s an F-15E side grade/slight upgrade anyways

Easy, we just unnerf the rafaello and EFT and make them 16.0

Would be nice to have decompression but I just don’t see it happening to that level

No more than 10g’s. This is some bs

Interested in this clip?

You can see my RWR triggers from 12 o’clock but my Radar stays empty

Yeah, tricky to see whats going on from just the cockpit view, but yeah could visually see the Kfir at 13 seconds but nothing on radar

State of affairs.
EFT - Can’t properly function in BVR because radar is beyond abysmal.
EFT - Can’t function in mid ranges because of the abysmal turn
EFT - Can’t function in close ranges, because instructor is abysmal
EFT - Can’t CAS, and currently is the worst top-tier CAS jet in the game. Because everything above + brimmstones only. I actually got a flashback right now, because playing Typhoon as a CAS actually feels the same as playing Tornado, lol.

You could add that the BOL IR countermeasures arent accurate to irl at all - But I suppose that affects more than just the EFT

But yeah its in a very sad state atm considering its THE premier aircraft of 3 nations

Which you can’t anymore

Definetly an upgrade over the tornados and certainly usable. But given just how many nerfs it’s A2G has at the moment (and that’s not even including the whole MMW situation) it’s rather annoying. Even basic GBU options are being withheld from the typhoon.

im hoping that maybe they will fix it but given that this is gaijin we are talking about, the chances are slim and even then probably gonna take way too long… shame to see my favourite plane kinda fucked over with every single update

Gaijin are simping the Rafale hard right now.
They have buried the Typhoon.
All to make the Su-30 have a better chance.

The fictious cobra button AOA overide is purely for slow speed recovery and not to be used as a combat trick.

I have seen the Typhoon display twice at different shows and I have never seen a Typhoon pull a cobra!

It’s really really frustrating how much Gaijin hate British top tier vehicles.

the MMW being withheld i can somewhat understand, 18 MMW brimstones would be just NATO version of Su30SM/Su34 combo since they do tend to be one to two shot kills. I wouldnt say no to 6 FnF brimstones (as a compromise) but theyve already said no because “its unrealistic” which is somewhat ironic.
The SAL brimstones arent the worst thing ever and to be honest i prefer them over mavericks a lot since they are also incredibly good at dealing with helicopters.
The only other thing i can think of that they are keeping away are SPEAR 3s which could be technically added, they are just effectively GPS SAL brimstones (will probably not be MMW even if they add them) and Taurus KEPD for german EF and StormShadow for British EF.
And since there were leaks of Kh59 being added which is a cruise missile, i dont see why these two shouldnt be added, Taurus is just a 400kg GPS guided missile that flies at 50m range. As for storm shadow idk much about it

Like i said, not mentioning MMW there are a load of nerfs. I agree quantity needs mitigation and SAL is fine short term. But a better solution needs to be found because it sucks in gamemodes like ASB. But other nerfs include

Missing GBU options
Missing GMTI radar
And even withwise brimstones. Typhoon never used brimstones 1s, we could and should have SAL only Brimstone 2s. Would be much fairer and actually semi-historically accurate

I see the dynamic and it makes me laugh all the time.
EF is introduced without most of its features, brimmstones are crippled in the worst way possible → Well at least it’s usable as CAS and is the best gunfighting duelist in the game (hell with the radar if they didn’t absolutely destroy visibility in ARB - I would have such a great time playing it there) —> They add some features, that doesn’t work properly, at the same time butcher the flight model + somehow made the radar worse while trying to fix it.
And the funniest thing being that somehow the fresh new mechanic of TVC - works perfectly freaking fine, no bugs there afaik, it even compensate automatically if you lose your damn wing. New features for the radar work for su-30, because it’s radar is just astronomical units ahead of whatever the mess EFT has. It’s CAS performance haven’t been nerfed even slightly despite many people being concerned. Well, you know what I mean. The EFT while already being a cripple in a wheelchair got smacked with a tungsten cube, while someone has perfectly functioning aircraft (minus the funny gear bug at the begining).

Spoiler

I bet enemy team has so much fun right now.
