nah, it’s only in the british requirments, no one aside them bought it.
the Saudis have it
I think I remember reading that was a specific Saudi request that the British also bought into the idea of and was carried over from P.110.
Ah, I didn’t know.
F-2000A Typhoon from italy tech tree like Typhoon FGR.4 under project centurion (Tranche 2 Blk 15) from RAF or DEU EF-2000 (tranche 2 Blk 10) ? 🤔
it’s not known.
But I had a hunch that Typhoon FGR.4 from british tech tree with BR 15.3 and received Meteor in 3 years or 2027 before F-2000A (ITA) and EF-2000 (DEU) because under ’ project centurion ’
In 2027 gajin could add new tranche F-2000A with AESA radar
italy as only main typhoon nation already ordered typhoon with mk 0 aesa radars, they will be the first to get them in game since those are already finished in development
Block numbers on Eurofighter don’t mean much in service. They’re mainly for contract purposes to define the hardware standard a customer will receive when they order the aircraft.
Older planes frequently get upgraded to, or even beyond the capabilities of the latest production “block”.
so we’re just gonna disregard Quadriga, Halcon 1 and Halcon 2?
he probably meant that Italy is going to get the aesa first because MK0 was chosed for the initial units of the new order in order to speed up deliveries.
as il signor said, italy will get it first since the mk0 will be way faster intrigated thats only what i said
besides that spain not being part of the game
if nothing goes wrong we’ll se german eurofighters with Mk1 next year and t4s in 2026
Do we know what Tranche or type the new 24 Eurofighter’s are gonna be? (my bad for being a bit off topic)
germany and italy have tranche 4 and 5 euros ordered now
next one that is gonna be delivered is tranche 4
germany and spain have T4s ordered, this is the production with deliveries for 2025-2030.
Spain signed the contract for Halcon II and Italy signed that new contract now as well, those are not going to be part of the same production so either T4+ or T5.
Germany is expected to sign another contract for another 20 Eurofighters in the same production as Halcon II and the Italian contract (btw does it have a name yet?)
These new production Eurofighters will be 2030+.
The specific tranche name doesnt really mean anything but they might choose to call it T4+ if they want to retain T5 for LTE Standard Eurofighters as 2030+ allows them to build these new jets to P4E standard
@Faster_Boiiiii soooo seem like the “initial fast deliveries requirments” shifted away. Btw P3EC confirmed I guess.

well the timeline for P4E would be very short…
