if it would have been bad smin would have acted now
So if the claim is from Eurofighter consortium it’s fact but if the claim is from anyone else it isn’t?
I think I’m starting to understand.

cuz it isnt a claim its a test with more precise numbers, meanwhile what i send you were claims but no numbers, a good example its some pages of claiming the 2A7 having a top speed of 69 km/h and some claiming 62 and if you go into documents it says that its limited to 61
Eurofighter claims supercruise to 1.5 mach, swiss trials show 1.4 mach, in-game it is maybe 1.3 mach
@Smin1080p_WT anything on the supercruise reports? What more information does Gaijin need, surely the aircraft can speed up to 1.5 mach and pull the throttle back to “Cruise” and sit there or am I wrong?
I’d love to know myself
No, not really, but when independent nation(s) report(s) supercruise speed in the ballpark of M1.5 while carrying a full A2A load (Switzerland), I’d say there is far more truth to what Eurofighter GmbH states compared to what GDLS (as shown by @UnHolySausage) states about a vehicle that isn’t even theirs.
Pretty sure EFT GmbH doesn’t even state whether the M1.5 is achieveable with A2A or clean, so the situation is a bit more complex than “nu uh they lie cus I said so!”. The only reliable metric we’ve got now is the Swiss stating M1.4 is achieveable with an A2A/air superiority loadout, as such, achieving M1.5 in a clean state, if that’s what EFT GmbH meant, is perfectly attainable.

see, another factor, the tests were done at what exact altittude? remember that switzerland its located at high altittude from sea level, probably stated supercruise speed its at perfect enviroment like what they do with tanks top speed in pavement

There are currently no supercruise reports open on the EFT.

The swiss trials stated 1.4 mach demonstrated supercruise. I stated that the definition isn’t being colloquialized or did you miss that part?
How is it supersonic cruise if it is only supersonic maximum mil thrust?
I believe Flame showed their claim is with air to air ordnance and maybe even a drop tank but I don’t recall.
Sea level height is irrelevant, supercruise would be conducted at high altitudes for any fighter.
What is the developers opinion on the situation then, seeing as the top speed for the Typhoon in-game is limited (clean) to 1.3 mach? Do they not have enough information, do they have questions? What is the holdup there?
well according to the report you showed earlier it needs to be far faster, thanks for the buff

That’s like, a you(r) problem. M1.4 supercruise is M1.4 supercruise.

I think any tech/bug report submitted by selected users in relation to a certain delta-winged-fighter should probably be discounted out of hand. Because with this new and hitherto unknown elastic vocabulary - there’s no telling what kind of whacky reports we’re going to see.
‘Typhoon doesn’t super-cruise according to my personal and incredibly arbitrary definition. Pls nerf.’
‘Typhoon cannon isn’t an actual 17th century cannon on a carriage - so the Typhoon has no cannon. Pls remove gun from Typhoon.’
‘Canards look nothing like ducks. Pls nerf.’
We could go on…

We’ve got a smart one here guys!
What is the point of the term “Cruise” in “Supercruise”?
The reports were closed if you recall, which is why I’m inquiring about the definition because it seems the developers is different than yours… no?
What if I used ‘nuh uh’ as my source?
