A small buff in a giant pool of nerfs

so is every man-in-the-loop capable Air-to-ground weapon if we follow your logic,
it says it is CAPABALE of man in the loop it never says it only uses it for mmW
Here an AI generated translation to french so you might understand it:
Donc, selon votre logique, toute arme air-sol capable d’intégrer un homme dans la boucle serait concernée ?
Le texte précise qu’elle est CAPABLE d’utiliser un opérateur humain (man in the loop ), il n’est jamais dit qu’elle le réserve exclusivement aux ondes millimétriques (mmW).
so why are you here again?

From the old cached version of the RAF’s website in 2012.
Is also in print in the Royal Air Force Handbook
Royal Air Force Handbook, 2006
Bearing in mind that book is from 2006 when Brimstone had no Dual-Mode seeker with SAL for man-in the loop operation. Autonomous target discrimination with the MMW radar has been a feature of Brimstone since day one.
Software upgrades are made to expand the valid target set (such as adding FIAC targets in 2013) or limit them in accordance with operational planning and ROE. But as Gunjob said, the SAL mode was expressly added because of requirements in COIN operations for an ability to attack dynamic targets outside the programmed software such as personnel and structures, that legally mandated an option for man-in-the loop all the way to the target.

I honestly love the canard wars
I find them incredibly dumb, but they do have their funny moments.

This case might have already been discussed regarding increasing the number of AMRAAMs the Eurofighter can carry, and maybe this page has already been considered, but what about this one? It says it can carry another AMRAAM on pylons 4 and 10, making a total of 8 AMRAAMs

There are only secondary sources suggesting it is possible at this time. It more than likely is possible, but what is needed is either a solid primary source stating it or better yet photos/video showing the Typhoon with AMRAAM/METEORs in those pylons.
At this moment in time, the Typhoons have only been deployed on operation in an Air to ground role or peace-time air policing roles where such heavy A2A fits haven’t been necessary and so there is no solid public evidence of it at this time.
Its a bit like the Sea Harrier FRS1 and all the upgrades it got as it sailed south to the Falklands like Aim-9Ls, AN/ALE-40 CM dispensers, extra bomb & rockets and later the twin rails. No guarantee all of those would have happened in peacetime without the falklands
all right
I think the same can be said for Hammer nerf and Brimstone nerf.
