can the typhoons ECM jam radar and incoming missiles ? or just radar lock ?
Any radar system, how effectivity who knows, but there is nothing special about the seeker on an AMRAAM vs any other PD radar.
i was just questioning because i for some reason remember that most NATO jets ECMs cant jam incoming radar missiles but only the radar lock of the enemy mothership it self
I can’t see why? You jam radars, be they on missiles, aircraft or ground system, there is no distinction between them other than typically missiles have smaller less powerful radars.

XD yeah right , i would love to see something like that but you know the snail with the typhoon is at the moment
and now i remember what I’m saying and now am sad :(
What would happen faster? F-18 with at least 6 maverics in my tree or uncrippled typhoon? What a gamble…

oh and an other thing how do you think the snail will push out ECMs , like what jammers do we know of being effective and what not ?
I’ve got a decent amount of information on British systems, thanks to my own docs and those @Flame2512 sourced from the archives. So we have a good idea how ours perform, but no idea about other nations. As for implementation no idea, and couldn’t tell you if I did haha.

Shouldn’t they be the same?
(Germany/Ita)
For EFT yes, for Tornado/Harrier not so much. For our GR aircraft we operated Sky Shadow, for our Harrier II’s we had Zeus. Neither of those systems is used by other national operators. For ADV/F.3 the Italian one (just an RAF F.3) never received the TRD (jamming and decoy pod) that the F.3 had in later life.
Actually I think the F-2000A has a different E-war config.

So, there is no point in hoping for a normally working radar until the patch…
Pretty much

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
