Eh, good idea but it’s all on Gaijin, other nations (Germany/Italy) should get something similar too if it’s the case but I don’t know anything about their prototypes.
for real! lol

Would be the same. It was a joint venture. with each nation developing a different piece. I dont know full details. But going by Wiki
DA1 Germany - Handling
DA2 Britain - Carefree handling, air to air refueling, etc… Also included ASRAAM trials
DA3 Italy - Weapon systems
DA4 Britain - Radar and other development (interesting twin seater)
DA5 Germany - Radar and avionics development (including AESA radar)
DA6 Spain - Airframe Development
DA7 Italy - Navigation, Avionics and missile carriage
So in essence. for now, All 3 nations would get the same aircraft. with no meaningful differences. For the most part, all 3 will be very similar even with the full version. Except for things like IRST on the RAF version. What Gen 5 missile they use, or cruise missile
Honestly, commonwealth vehicles can very well hold Britain competitive until the time of the production Typhoon be added, so it isn’t really necessary to create those Frankensteins.
Gotta say, the British Top Tier Rumor Round-Up and Discussion Wishlist thread never ends, well done all.
There is more to the DA Typhoons than just not being fully kitted out.
Starting from the latest QnA, these discussions have become reasonable.
Except though if I wanted to use those vehicles, Id play their native country. Bodging “commonwealth” vehicles into Britain randomly for all eternity wouldnt be fun in my opinion. 1 or 2. Fine. But “you don’t need Typhoon, you can still get this obscure [Insert any commonwealth country here] jet” for the next 5 years would not be good.
Can go back to debating where the KF41 should or shouldnt have gone if you want :P

Never ends because they get shafted every patch. The best thing they got last was the first PD radar and a harrier with SRAAMs… (those were good days in WT).
Anyone remember when the PD first came out and FGR can clap you from like 15km with normal sparrows?
Every new aviation platform they got was about two patches too late.
I honestly do not believe the Typhoon is coming yet.
GJ is getting ready for another round of harriers. They are making the grind harder by adding a copy paste Harrier on the Naval line. Additionally, they just added the Italian harrier with the F18 radar.
What does this all mean? They are preparing to add the Sea Harrier FA2 because these will be the first aircraft with AMRAAMs along with the Viggen Mod D. They are the perfect test platforms for the missile to come first without breaking the game.
GJ likes testing new missiles on attackers and not the greatest fighters such as the F-104S ASA being the first fighter with Aim9Ls and the Mig23M getting the R60M before the MLD & MLA.
Perhaps we finally get the F4F ICE too. That would be a sick little patch instead of just getting the next 4th gen with sparrows or some other missile they did not use and a nerfed radar.

Nope, this kind of AIM-54C pillow is selling in China.
Probably because they told us it isn’t coming yet.
