Ahaha no worries mate, happens to us all.
Seems you had it on the money mate. Ahaha
The devs straight up looked at a primary source and called it a lie? xD
Not the first time.
Cheers Gunjob - a question regarding the inboard wing pylon (the one that can only be occupied with A/G ordnance so far) - are there any plans currently to permit A/A Weaponry usage from that pylon, and if not, what is the reason?
That’s erm… interesting, considering the legal repercussions of selling something when it can’t do what they say it can
@Flame2512 this is another potential data point to look into regarding the EFT’s supercruise capabilities:
Havent been able to find the referenced source tho, nor the altitude it was done at:
It’s not the first it stinks of the stinger missile excuse gaijin gave. They don’t understand how the stinger can pull more G than a igla so we’re like must be a lie. So situation here they dont understand how it can Mach 1.5 supercruise with a full air to air loadout so they just say the manufacturer is lying 😂
Air Forces Monthly September '04, which has this cover I believe? (Christ anyone who has an original has paper older than me lmaoooo)
Oh, and it’s out of print. Has been for some time as I’m sure was guessed, but uh, good luck finding a copy.
The performance report itself from the Singapore tests might be available if a magazine was able to get their hands on the numbers.
Idk how im gonna sleep tonight with the sheer idiocy that is gaijin saying primary sources are lies…
This is why I dont waste my time bug reporting anymore.
I’m used to it already.
could you link that report?
I’ll craft up a suggestion for it don’t worry.
Speaking of suggestions, I assume theres no further sources in the stuff y’all got from the national archives regarding its supercruise capability?
We’re doomed to get screwed by gaijins preconceived views of the world on this one? :(
There’s a Russian-language site called magzdb that has scans of lots of back-issues of different magazines including AFM, Flight etc. Scans tend to be in English even though the site isn’t.
I was able to find a copy of that issue there, and stick it on google drive:
Air Forces Monthly, Sept 2004
She’s going to get supercruise, right? I came across the bug report debacle in which the mods are claiming the EF’s supercruise ability is, “(a) clear marketing lie”.
The disagreement comes at the speed of supercruise, I think.
They didn’t say Typhoon can’t supercruise at all.
