Is it possible to userskin customize the canopy tint
Blame the Germans for not giving it a proper designation like the RAF did
:P
We did, we call it Eurofighter…
But Gaijin wants to keep the EF-2000:(

Sources are all Official ones
Bundeswehr and the Bundesministerium für Verteidigung(Federal Ministry of Defense), sadly the report gets Ignored :(
Maybe @Gunjob could take an look on it?

Played a little bit with the Su-33 unlocked it and man I would honestly trade the 120 for a missile like the R-27…
Low alt high alt doesn’t matter, I would even take an ASRAAM based on the R-27ET
120s are so easy to defeat a puff of chaff a half assed notch and they just give up.
I do wonder if they’ll just add watered-down versions of the IRIS-T/ASRAAM rather than adding the full strength version. Mostly in the seeker department
Of course they will and we will get a big speil about how IIR missiles if they were modelled correctly would break the game and the player needs to be able to counter and detect them etc etc.
As of now Typhoon needs a new missile, 120s do not cut it and that sounds crazy to say
They could add in 9X since it’s the worst of the modern missiles. It would be wrong but technically there’s some finegaling you could do.

The issue is that the Typhoon is an aggressive aircraft that you need to play defensively and its jsut wierd.
Aim-120s certainly no longer feel like they hold much advantage anymore, especially as people have become more confident in defending and the aircraft have become better at handling it too. So the range advantage on the Aim-120B has lost much of its potency and the MCIA/R-77-1s WVR performance holds far greater value.
So I could see Aim-120C5s coming at some point.
As for SRAAMs. The lack of a HOBS missile sucks, but its tuning it right so that it isnt OP or without making a new arms race with everyone else. But just giving AIm-9M their IRL lock ranges and turning them into a medium range weapon would be enough I think in the SRAAM department

I don’t think we will see IIR missiles for awhile sadly.
They need to make changes to the 120B we have in game or upgrade it to the C so we at least have some chaff resistance and some HOB capability.
R-77-1 and R-73 are in a different world to Aim9M and 120B
Standard Typhoon pilots SA right there.
what are you trying to do
change canopy glass, and even better if i can change the hud glass
Again playing the Su-33 up high F-15 with 120s and the R-27ER no nonsense just slaps him out of the sky at 30km…
Had that been a 120 he likely defeats it easily.
Then when you get to the close range end of game stuff you have the R-73 and R-27ET
It’s just so good, almost want to start grinding Russia for how obscene the Su-35 will be when added.
You summed it up perfectly Typhoon is the Alpha predator of the current game or it should be and instead you play flying around not able to find things with a missile that doesn’t really work so you spend most of the time on the deck or cold
MiG’s/MKI for Britain and they’re better than the Typhoon I’m calling it now.

Yeah, every match in ASB, im trying to avoid the furballs and just sling Aim-120s from a far beacuse I know i’ll be out classed in a dogfight that I dont hold every advantage in. Had a rather intense match the other day where every time I took off, I had nothing but Su-30 pings practically surround the AF and spent the next 10 minutes in constant defensive action with rapid RTBs to re-arm. Managed to walk away with a load of kills and no deaths, but I was pushing both my own skill and the aircraft to its absolute limit and it was rough.

I don’t see Britain ever getting the Su-30MKI it’s got Russian premium/event vehicle all over it probably give it Kh-38MTs too just to really add insult to injury!
MiG 29K navalised maybe but payload of 6 R-77 is pretty poor by top tier standards
Su-30MKI with ASRAAM and AESA whislt the Typhoon is limited to Blue Vixen and Aim-9M for balancing reasons.

Hate to moan but this is what Typhoon is on paper to everyone else it looks amazing but as discussed it has so many shortcomings that it’s blistering speed and climb rate accounts for very little.
