Eurofighter Typhoon (UK versions) - Technical data and discussion (Part 1)

Im still waiting for the GBU-31’s to be added. Thatd make the most difference for the EFT in air sim atm afaik :/

Gaijin’s decision making with regard to bomb loads makes little sense to me. For example. Only Britian used Paveway IV but all 3 nations gained access to Paveway IV. But only Germany and Italy gain access to GBU-48s which would be niche but useful addition as a 1000lb GPS/Laser bomb which Britain doesnt have.

Why other loadout options like the 2k versions werent even considered is really wierd. They already limit the A2G capabilities quite a bit already, why they are restricting the choices of GBUs as well, feels really wierd

yea, specially since we have allready the dumb version on EF and even an GBU-31 on alot of US planes

Pretty sure the brits were given the Mk18 instead of the GBU-48, which is worse. Its weird they didnt stick with their “every EFT is getting the same weapons” stance on that little aspect tho.

may or may not get crosseye

Yeah, I would take the GBU-48s over them

I’m 99% sure that on the dev server both the Typhoon FGR.4 had the EGBU MK 13.
The Tonka GR.4 definitely had it. It’d be nice if they were re-added back instead of a bog standard Mk 18 with the model of a GBU-12. Though since it’s a Mk 18 and it has different stats to the Mk 13 means they did do something other than C&P and completely failed. Strange.

did anybody else had issues with missiles not loading in and as a result not giving RWR warnings

i have the issue that no missiles are rendered not even my own which can makes it quite confusing when launching missiles

i observed it happening with all kinds of missiles Fox-1, Fox-2 and Fox-3s

RWR issues have been widely reported recently, and I think i’ve read of someone else having an issue where their missiles were disappearing and not even allowing for the weapon track view thing to work, but still getting kills. Suffice to say. The Snail has a seasonal cold at the moment

the post claims that the analysis is “original” and “written by [them]”

Yeah “Nails” is the term used for an RWR contact. Its likely this is the tone.

IIRC all of the HUD footage in that series is faked (or maybe redacted) with a generic HUD added in post. So it is possible that the sound is also added after the fact.

First season had a lot of that, but latest one has alot of redacted footage.;

Why would they be getting “Nails” when it is behind the Flanker?
