Eurofighter Typhoon (UK versions) - Technical data and discussion

If only it was only “your” jets.

Well this is the British Typhoon thread.
Sadly Italians and Germans have to suffer too

I had a Rafale in close quarters in ground battles and i couldnt get near him.

A friendly Pantsir sniped him while i was flopping around at slow speed :(

What’s going on with my amraam pylon

Is that the rumored twin amraam pylon?

Its for jousting

No, thats just an Old bug which somehow adds the Visuel Texture of the Pylon infront of the real pylon

The rumored twin AMRAAM pylon is just an Copy Pasta Twin Pylon which is used for the Sidewinder, (its the same)

Guess i forgot to add the /j
My bad

Model is bugged in the 2nd and 3rd LOD. You’ll only see this when the model is displaying a lower Level of Detail for performance/optimisation reasons. And it’ll disappear when the model uses the highest detail model (lod_0) again


“pylon_3” mesh is placed too far forward for some reason, so it sits in front of “mfrl_002”
It’s the same in lod_1 and lod_2 on all three Eurofighter models.

How do you view it like this ?

CDK Asset Viewer

And is there a way to view that double aim120 pylon for eurofighter that’s in the files?

There are several dual-rail AIM-120 launcher models in the files. I assume most for US jets.
I don’t know what one the Eurofighter was supposed to use, or whether it was just using the same one it uses for dual AIM-9s

In the files its just the an Copy pasta pylon which is allready in use for the Sidewinder
Aka, you want to see the twin pylon for AMRAAM?
Well, you can allready in game…
Just look at the Dual Sidewinder

@Gunjob could you maybe point that to an dev?

So what is stopping Eurofighter from having double pylon aamrams, just game balance?

There’s currently no proof the FCS accepts more than 6x MRAAM’s nor any pictures of the jet with more.

Proof.

Though double mounts are highly unlikely. More likely to get the AMRAAM on the inner wing pylons. But again. No absolute proof that it was done. Just secondary sources suggesting its possible

As if the su27SM has proof for double rail pylon or rafale with 8 micas that was only used with the F4 or any other exported variants

I just don’t see why this is any different than the Yak 141 IRST, Thai Alpha Jet Gun pod, su30 double rack r77, etc. Surely it’s just game balance if Gaijin makes exceptions for everyone else

Not to mention a suspicious 25% engine thrust loss in high sustained turns and very long thrust returning acceleration no other jet in the game has, found by one user. This has to be just balancing
