Dovbleg day pls
surprise dev stream
if the DA5 mounted weapons why are you so adamant on the DA1 then? I feel like this entire argument could have been avoided had you just said that from the start
you naughty naughty you teasing meeee
I am adamant about something coming to Germany. The DA.1 is just the first thing I decided to talk about due to it being one of the first versions of the Typhoon.
Dev stream foot pics
please no
at this point my brain has melted due to just how dumb this is so i really dont care anymore, if the DA5 has weapons then I see no reason why it cant come if we get the DA2 and DA3, assuming we ever actually get the prototypes
Friday and I’m off work to keep an eye on the madness. Gib blogs

Can use, not did use.
again at this point I dont care it is close enough
Tisn’t, but okay.
the problem with the DA5 is that those realy are pretty much nearly finished Typhoons tranche 1 and whose capability might already be to high
To my knowledge, the DA.5 was the last variant without AESA, as well as having worse engines so it wouldn’t be as good as the production variants.
then i dont know what to say, because the DA1 never mounted weapons and the selling points of the DA2 and DA3 are the mk107 engines and the worse PD radars meaning the things are just worse then the tranche 1 EFTs
The DA5 is another German development unit but was, unlike the DA1, built by EADS Deutschland in Manching. It was the first Eurofighter to fly with the new ECR-90 radar and with a full avionics suite. It was also used for testing radar absorbent materials and for further avionics/software testing with Autopilot and Autothrust changes. Additionally, it was used for AMRAAM and AIM-9L integration in addition to IRIS-T testing in 2004.
if that is true then again they can come with the DA2 and DA3
ehhh seems like none of those even had a radar
The DA1 was the first development Eurofighter and was built by DASA. It was used to develop flight control systems and initially flew with RB 199 Mk.104E(also known as RB199-122) which are based on the Tornado’s engines. It was later fitted with EJ200-Series-03Z engines when those were available. It was also used to for IRIS-T integration and had its last flight on the 21st of December 2005.
After some research it would appear that this aircraft lacked countermeasures and other DASS(or Defensive Aid Sub System, so basically RWR, ECM, MWS and IFF) systems. It also appears to have lacked a radar because the first Eurofighter with a radar was the DA5.
