That might be it (my Google does not waht to show it).
unfortunately, i havent heard anything about a fix yet

We just need to make Gaijin believe the marketing lies about how PIRATE can guide AMRAAM

Ah bugger - okay.
Off-topic here, but reminds me of when he went into full-on denial of Leopard 2s (specifically 2A5+ variants) mantlet being vastly superior to M1s, just because I refused to share actually classified documents with him about that.
MiG-23M very much loves to deny reality and spread misinformation especially when it comes to vehicles AND countries he dislikes/has a hate duck for (generally these tend to be either Germany or the UK).
Off-topic over.

Nope. It seems it replaces switching to LPRF, but also somehow bugs the whole thing (at least for me I have to turn the radar off and on in order to be able to do anything). Would guess it is a deeper problem
Its kind of outright bizarre Gaijin would even implement auto-switching to IRST if IRST is not being used as a functional sensor 99% of the time in-game. Its like a poor half-implementation of the system, allowing one of its supporting functions to continue to operate despite refusing to model one of the primary functions.
For all intents and purposes, the only use to PIRATE in-game atm is in sim, and its as a passive and undetectable sensor for finding targets and ID’ing them with the optical portion of the in-game model. Lock switching from radar to IRST when the IRST cant guide radar missiles in-game is complete insanity, particularly when the lock will not return to radar on its own when the targets aspect allows it too…

Right, but at some point we need to acknowledge the marketing lies that the Eurofighter consortium has used to bid their aircraft. Too many countries are suggesting they can supercruise - yet their fighters require full mil thrust to barely surpass the wave drag boundary around ~1.3 mach.
True supercruise is achieved by aircraft like the F-22 which can mil thrust cruise up to 1.82 mach and when they want to supercruise… simply pull the throttle back to cruise setting and enjoy the lower drag boundary at 1.5 mach.
No, at the time I had last posted 400+ comments before the thread was closed. Quite literally this same group including you, dotShini, and others were the culprits. You know better.
Does the DASS use missile seekers as a part of the sensor suite?
Legacy would imply technology that is outdated but hard to replace because it is widespread, so I suppose you’re right. It’s not legacy, just obsolete.
I didn’t refer to them as professionals, I said that in an official position you should have a more professional demeanor. That would imply following the rules such as not posting memes on the forum.
I already explained my position.
I think I made a proper point, or am I wrong to have the opinion that their “sensor fusion” is just a marketing ploy on their part? It cannot match the performance of the systems on the Rafale - which truly fuse the sensors and allow them to communicate with themselves. The Eurofighter simply takes all of the information and combines it on a display. The trouble is an error in understanding and a difference in definition.
Right, so combining sensor information onto the display is being coalesced as “sensor fusion” (it is simply data fusion). The reality is that the Eurofighter’s “sensor fusion” is no better than the Mirage 2000’s data fusion.

He is a self proclaimed abrams tanker.
Of course he gonna ramble how its superior and still vastly lost im any comparison match
please post a source about this, i have always thought it could do 1.8 on mil power when its tuned up to 102% wartime power, but now you say this and i want to know where you got it from
DM me, I’m not interested in derailing this fine thread.

The problem is you and your half knowledge of stuff. Only cause you like it doesnt make the other version not a sensor fusion.
They might be 2 variants but doesnt mean the other one is weong cause of that.
You need to look for the correct term of what u wanna describe instead of claiming the otherbstuff is wrong
I suggest a new forum game for any thread related to Eurofighter Typhoon. Any time the words “marketing lie” are said you have to drink a shot of your preferred alcoholic beverage. Whoever manages to survive the longest with a functional liver wins.
