Truth is, we have no idea what they will do, nor do I think they have made an official statement in this regard.

We have now reached a point where additions might be so new, they havent actually entered service yet. We already have extremely early, non-combat capable prototypes in game like the CR3TD and I dont think we have yet to have the situation where a nation could genuinely do with a vehicle that has yet to be delivered but is fully planned to be delivered.

So I think its entirely Gaijins discretion at this point and I can see it going either way

Shame there isnt an EAV-8B+ skin

Spoiler

and they could have picked one of the display team skins for the Typhoon

Cuz it’s not a premium, duh (or an EF2k in this case)

The voice you hear is this video is Leonard “Swoosh” Snead. He’s was an Admiral and Program Manager of the F-14 Aircraft/Phoenix Missile. He also directly worked at Grumman 2 years after this, maintaining the position and was the man who handled Iran’s entire acquisition of the F-14.

Getting to the point, this guy knows what’s he’s talking about. He’s was walking primary source for the F-14 Tomcat.

He said, and I quote, “… the F-14 structural envelope… and has consistently flown to seven and one-half G’s in the fighter configuration at one point number three attained eight point nine G’s within limit loads.”

Video: https://youtu.be/G-mrFcsw-Ew?si=3yJcF8f0ER0QHshH&t=697

So clearly the F-14 in the video was within limit loads… The Tomcat was over-engineered to an insane degree and was tested to be almost structurally unbreakable under controlled flight.

If I reported this, could it be considered?

Which makes me surprised they didn’t do a skin for the Tiger HAD-E. It’s Spanish AND it’s a premium.

We dont accept video / testimonials for reports. Many claims have been made by pilots, tankers, commanders, designers etc and turned out to later be erroneous. As such, we have a set standard across the board that we dont accept them.

nope im pretty sure the ones that entered service in 2001 had L-150. (early su30mki)

Spain would go where their equipment origin and needed as far as I remember correctly.

Sounds good, and where do we split there EFs xD
Maybe Germany to close the PIRATE Gap?

It is only skin, not new EF typhoon incoming.

No shit…

Talking about future…

You know how German mains get from time to time. Just let it be and it’ll pass eventually.

There is a pretty good chance that Germany would get a Spanish EF at some point, so it isn’t really cope
