I’m guessing that what ever proof we give them, they will just pass off as “propaganda” while they also take whatever tea soaked peice of paper they can if its russian

Frankly speaking, it is infinitely ridiculous that a top aircraft can attack several targets at once only if they are stationary, and if they are moving, then only one at a time, and only from short distances. The best aircraft for a salvo at moving targets is the Gripen. But with 4 Mavericks, it flies out with two “short” air-to-air missiles and very few countermeasures, while the 16-50 can take, with 6 Mavericks, 4 “long” or “short” air-to-air missiles at will.
In the ASB, the Typhoon is effectively locked into the air defense role, although theoretically it can attack small moving targets, but the gaijins did not want to give it fnf missiles and a radar mode for work on the ground.
Oh, Mr. Flanker. Here are your fnf missiles and a radar for work on the ground. Don’t deny yourself anything. And ESA radar, of course.

So tired of the cope
The Americans and Russian get whatever they want
Tell that to the bug report for BOL for the US hornets using US tests and RAAF F-18 and Finnish BOL documents to add support for US hornets to get BOL. So far nothings come of it but we’ll see lol.

Thought Smin stated the mode wasn’t present in any radars in game early? Maybe im misremembering
The hornet hasn’t even come out yet
The Harriers have been suffering for 5 years
Maybe in 10 years they’ll fix the boat flightmodel they gave them…
What the Harriers?
They literally gave them 0 effort and they went from being one of the most epic dog fighters ever to a useless lump bc of gaijin

Yeah the first gen models im referring to. Though its been a minute since ive touched them.
Yeah the first gen models should have the same ITR of a MIG - 21 and have a higher STR

Su-34 and F-15E got it on launch and the Su-30SM is now getting this major
Rafale and Typhoon had it on the dev server (for their update) , but it never made it to live.
My bad then
The Rafale got a massive buff at high alt according to these posts:
Im not sure under what conditions you are testing, so I’m not sure if what dark_claw was discussing here would be covered, but from the sounds of it, gaijins decided to nerf the Typhoon and once again buff the Rafale in a way that seems dubious quite frankly, considering it is out-accelerating jets with higher thrust, higher TWR’s, etc… That being said, i have no clue what gaijins using to justify these changes, so all I can do is shrug in confusion.
That might explain why the EFT feels sluggish while the Rafale feels incredible tho.

I think the full version of this should be kept until widespread implementation of AESA radars, since IIRC they are pretty good at SAR and would make it more pleasant to use.
It’s not a nerf at the expense of the eurofighter, the point was just there isn’t enough sources for the eurofighter for gaijin to model it well enough seems like, even if it’s pretty clear to anyone that eurofighter will always outaccelerate a rafale.
Otherwise as far as it was explained the Rafale can do that and from what i remember it could do better as they went for a middle ground, it does not come of nowhere.
Id take the blue vixen over the CAPTOR-M at the moment, the thing is anemic and blind, and the only thing it does “better” than the BV afaik is lock range, which is irrelevant in-game with the weapons and maps we currently have.

With the FA2 HUD finally coming, im planning on putting the FA2 properly through its paces in SB and see if I can get clips of the FA2 managing things that the CAPTOR-M seems to just fail at. A proper side by side comparison
F-15A/C have visual evidence of BOL. F-15E should have nothing stopping it from using BOL. those have been around for a bit, and still havent gotten it
hey Morvran, i remember you saying something about GBU options, and from my LJDAM bug report i found out that typhoon should be able to use 2,000lb LJDAM on the stations that can carry 2,000lb bombs and JDAMs
