Eurofighter Typhoon (UK versions) - Technical data and discussion

thats gotta have horrendous performance

The Magic 2 also has auto search features.

Wouldnt the TPODs in those modes perform significantly because depending on it they are akwardly placed on the plane?

The dedicated internal ones are allnplaced pretty much on the nose for a reason arent they?

it cant look up like in a dogfight but the tpod sticks out quite far from the fuselage and is angled slightly down so it can look up enough at longer distances

Deffo a hint at the typhoon

Are there details on radar scan speed? Angles, even pattern is in manual but i cant find its scan speed.

Unfortunately I’ve not found anything yet. Also I’d strongly advise against posting anything from the manual here.

Isn’t the scan rate of the CAPTOR-M supposed to be high enough to do a2a and a2g modes “at the same time”?

Ive run across some article talking about its development/ supposed features and apparently it should do something similar to PESA.
When scanning and lets say your priority target is 30° on your left. It should momentarily jump on that target whenever its on 30° left, no matter the bar, it should quickly rotate, get info and continue in scan. This alone should point towards very quick scan rate.
I wonder if this will be added. But if the scan will be speed of tornado, not that its needed to be fair.

Interesting, where’s that from? I’ve been looking for information on the priority track mode.

Its in this but i got it screened from secretprojects forum. Its nearly 40 years old article so not sure how viable it can be.


Besides the fact that it’s just ridiculous, I also know this character. We’re on the same discord server. Of course, there’s no proof, just renders.

WTF is this

A youngster’s dreams about how many amraams a Typhoon can carry. He saw a double pylon for amraams in one of the presentation videos and got overexcited about it.

Probably this one

that ones fake, only a render

Yes i know.
It was a reply to Fox_Hunter

yeah bundeswehr is a bit over ambigious at times

most we possibly could get is a 12 missle loadout 6 wvr 6 bvr missles nothing more

4 missiles under belly. Two on wings. 6 BVR.
2 on outboard wings stations. 2 WVR.
8 6+2
Or replace 2 BVR with 2 TMC for 4 WVR.
4+6

Where do you want to place all 12 missiles?
