Surely the simulator has to be identical to the real typhoon.
The guy did say in the video “The basic principles of what you can see are exactly as it would be in the real airplane” but I’m not sure if he meant the airplane itself or just the cockpit
Hypothetically, if HARM missile or sniper targeting pod ever come, would this be sufficient proof that the Eurofighter could equip them, even if they have never been fitted onto the airframe?
Sniper should be relatively easy to get
Unless they decide it must be nation specific, though the Harrier Gr7/9 did use Sniper so they were in the RAFs arsenal.
As for HARMs, that photo is possibly useful, but im sure there are other source for it too
Oh cool, I could never find pics of the sniper pod on a eurofighter. But what about Agm-88 HARM?
I dont know if I’ve ever seen a picture of them equipped but should be able to.
ALARM for the FGR4 and AGM-88 HARM for the German and Italian Typhoons
But they are a kinda niche weapon that they wouldnt have had much use for in operations like OP Shader
Especially as the Tornado GR4 could handle that just fine until its retirement
Spoiler
Thats 12x Brimstones and 4x ALARM on both aircraft
Thats a mock up of tranche 5, the advertised armament there sadly doesnt mean anything.
It is only a show of whats possible for the future and what could be integrated if so desired
I should note that all the litenings use the same zoom regardless of irl performance, and the L3 is gen3 in game so the performance gain from sniper would be negligible unless gaijin chooses to model pods in higher fidelity.
Yeah, no idea how they would model it, but still a potenial buff we could pursue if it did come with more, maybe like an even better zoom or gen 4 thermals or something
Issue being as of currently digital zoom is something gaijin refuses to implement, and G3 is already something like 1080p so 90% of the community wouldn’t even be affected by additional buffs.
Hmm… That is true, well, we’ll have to wait and see
As much as i’d love to see the ALARM come in, the performance gap between it and like… every other ARH missile is staggering and i’m not entirely sure there’s a real way to balance it.
Its Gaijin, they’ll just nerf it down to be worse than AGM-88 and claim the parachute loitering is something they cant model due to game limitations

You’d have to convince gaijin, not me lol

haha of course
I think those are Matre ER
Sea Killer / Marte - Wikipedia.
and is a type of Anti Ship Missile, Could come, but probably not all that great for tanks (possibly of no use at all in that regard)
Every fighter in the world, when it is going to receive new weapons, must go through an integration and flight test campaign, after which it is ready to use it the new weapons
it has a 150lb semi armor piecing warhead tho
That is irrelevant if it cannot target a tank. It is almost certainly designed to target things like Ships on the sea
The Marte 1 looks to be beam riding, so those could be used.
But the Marte 2 and Marte ER (what is equipped on the Typhoon) are ARH and may lack the necessary guidance to target anything on land
