Eurofighter vs Rafale battlefield

I love the sarcasm lmaooo

It’s ridiculous they leave the Typhoon’s radar in the state that it is. Even with the most recent update it’s painfully clear they don’t even test the game anymore, most broken update, and the Eurofighter radar still can’t lock anything to save it’s life (literally)

Yeah so MICA can’t phase through mountains. I personally believe it’s highly unrealistic and the rafale is absolutely unplayable. The EFT is just way too good in game and the rafale should go down to 11.3 in BR at the maximum

bro aren’t you part of the reason Typhoon isn’t getting any buff?
Both Rafale and Typhoon are still not performing historically. Rafale is however closer to its real capabilities than Typhoon.
But the real reason Typhoon is in this state is because nobody is willing to make the bug reports … so instead of

why not try to make the bug reports yourself? It’s not like the bug reports are going to make all by themselves …

Because we have numerous bug reports open. Gaijin accept them but then have no delivery date for the changes to be implemented could be 6 months could be 3 years.

The quality of the bug report isn’t indicative of if Gaijin action it.

Aren’t most of the radar bugs either marked as fixed (if they made a difference or not), or about mechanics that are not in game yet ?
If so, either more radar reports are needed or we can just wait for new mechanics to be added.

Just like the RBE2 AESA is missing so many ESA and AESA specific mechanics making it literally unplayable, please refund me game, I can’t understand how the rafale is above 10.7

The reports were submitted 6 months ago. They just wont implement them.

All the missing pirate and CAPTOR-M features. Reported
CAPTOR-E, Reported
FM fixes, reported
HUD/HMD/cockpit issues, reported
missing weapons, reported

All necessary reports to fix the Typhoon have been reported, many of them were reported before the Typhoon even hit live. The issue is not that reports have been made. The issue is that reports havent been actioned.

There are many many issues that could easily be resolved. Like Striker 1s missing sensor fusion that displays friendly targets in the HMD… exists on the Scorpion HMD.

Priority track exists… on AESA radars.

Heck, many of the missing weapon types, like the various types of GBUs, can be found on other aircraft in game.

Many of the issues are not “game limitations” its just gaijin wont action the bug reports.

and now they’ve just nerfed the Typhoon again, as our only FnF wepaon was GPS guided weapons and they now have 10m of drift.

Somehow, theyre able to get GMTI working on a bunch of other radars, but it just “doesnt work” on CAPTOR-M lol

Yeah, 2 for 2 of trying to add GMTI and it “not working”. but works just fine on everyone else.

And even there. Unlike on the F-2 the tpod doesnt cue to radar lock on the Typhoon, at least it didnt on the dev

Yeah hilarious…Rafale gets a tiny nerf and Typhoon still has

A Radar that doesnt work…ho ho we are laughing…

Rafale went from being the best 1v1 dueler to probably 4th or 5th best. However yeah it’s still the best overall plane in the game in actual matches

I dont buy it, this is 1 degree per second.
It is still light, fast generates more thrust and the acceleration at low speed has been buffed.

It will be the 1st or 2nd best dogfighter in game.
Which as mentioned before hasn’t been relevant since the adition of missiles that pull 40G+…

Which the Rafale carries

Its still probably gonna be the best 1v1 duelist because of the MICAs.

Sitting from the best 1st, and now the 3rd, with the energy retention being slightly killed, it will be pretty hard to maintain constant Mach 2. Time will tell.

Well 9ms become dead weight in close range dogfighting.

Other than that, I think Typhoon is still pretty competitive in FM Wise, really, after testing out EFT and Rafale top speed and acceleration with my friend (with both sitting at 20 minutes of fuel and full BVR Loadout), Typhoon beat Rafale in top speed and acceleration, but indeed when it’s closing in, Typhoon will be dead. The VnE limit really kills Rafale whenever you want to go Pursuit Run, and you need to climb in order to not reach VnE limit in IAS, and climbing would make Rafale pretty vulnurable.

And the biggest game changer for Rafale is the AESA Radar itself, yes, EFT radar sucks so much, I also struggle to maintain a good TWS on multiple enemy, while Rafale, its radar overperform so much, you had to use manual cycling to prioritze target you actually want to shoot, not cycling up to 20 times just because there’s so much enemy in your radar gimbal.

And also, the AESA are still pretty broken spot, it will always scan anything outside its scan zone instead of need to scan a little bit in order to be memorized (Idk how the technical language called, but it is what I know).

Well, if Typhoon FM wasn’t getting constant nerf, Typhoon would still be the BVR King in FM Wise, now because of its FM nerf, you really had to use Typhoon like mix of Starfighter (in high speed) and Mirage 2000 (in horrible energy retention at low speed).

Reaching Mach 2 is good when your enemy being blind of your presence, but Mach 2 also means double edge sword because your RCS would be higher and it’s pretty hard to notch when you’re in pitbull range. That’s why Rafale will always lose in either BVR Scenario, or Pursuit Scenario, IMHO.

The only thing that makes Rafale not absolutely overpowering is how MICA still in gimped form. And again, it’s my opinion, most Rafale player would wait until mid game where Rafale would dominate (This is also my best strategy whenever using Rafale), while in Typhoon I do the opposite, I always trying to win first engagement, and when mid game comes, I use the high VnE to gain so much speed and always trying to stay away in MICA effective range.

Rafale would be easily beaten if you spam so much it forces them to constantly notching, and with its limited player count (It’s almost impossible to see 8 Rafale in a team, at the least is maximum 4-5). I always getting killed by an Su-30 that constantly spam up to 6 missiles just to kill me.
