Eurofighter Typhoon (UK versions) - Technical data and discussion

That’s not uncommon with NVGs. The NVGs used on the Tornado used a small explosive charge to blow them off during ejection:

In-game thats debatable imo.

The ability to spam BVRAAM’s is pretty huge, its one of the great annoyances of dealing with the F-15C/E in sim, they just sling missiles at you until you run out and then they have you fully defensive, but in this case the Typhoon should have the performance edge over everything in BVR, so maybe 6 is all they “need”

Tho im pretty sure you were talking irl, in which case yeah, I think a lot of jets “can” carry more than they are ever seen with, such as the recent case of the F-15E carrying the “tac-ferry” loads with additional GPS bombs on the CFT’s, which are not “intended” to be used in combat, but likely “could” if need be.

Or the F-15C with the double AMRAAM racks on the belly and the Amber rails on the wings:

(iirc I read this was an F-15C, tho ive seen ppl claim it to be an E or an EX as well)

I saw photo from another perspective, it is single seat.

you can spam amraams if you have them. most eurofighter operators have a distinct lack of stocks.

the tac ferry loadout is just that. a ferry loadout. cant employ those weapons or you could but cant program the upper ones on the CFTs.
the double rails on that f-15 are also just a mockup

Basic F-15E doesn’t have mil-std bus on outboard cft pylons to communicate with JDAMs.

The HMD itself doesnt matter, the ability to display IFF targets without the use of any other sensors is using a datalink system to do so, in the case of the A-10C, its called SADL, and IS USED on the F-16C. Its been bug reported and accepted:

Itd be rather unfair of the Rafale to get this feature and no other fighters getting it, as its an absolutely massive advantage in sim, and the F-16C should have it for sure, and the Striker II pic posted earlier seems to have it as well.

speaking of which, HMD only got added to a very recent upgrade to the rafale…

This should be a feature on most modern HMS, and i’d personally like to see it represented on the F-15I along with the addition of a long range standoff missile (hopefully this patch since hammer is coming)

AASM shouldnt be being added, idk what those maniacs are thinking…

So much for this:

Adding AASM before adding vehicles that counter the current threats is insane, its also tremendously unbalanced, and should only be done if all other nations are ALSO getting their game-breakingly OP standoff F&F munitions, but I doubt it will. Only Russia and France are allowed to have those smh

there’s 3 variants of AASM. they might as well just add the GPS only one…

Well if they can add an AASM then they better bloody add a popeye, it’s about 20 years older and still isn’t in game

I think saw glass seeker cover in teaser

could be laser guided

Doesn’t it is Skipper from TRAM, but with INS?

nah it has an IIR/GPS+DL+IOG seeker (on the decent variant anyway)

The thing is, no matter which one they add; all have ~70km and mid-course updates via Datalink iirc.

What about base variant?

Likely just a GPS/Laser seeker similar to current LJDAM

But its not mmV so its fine
