Close to 77-1 from 30sm headon, ofc op
Ahh yes, the best plane in the game was falling behind when it was added.
Lmao

Not being able to easily lock targets sometimes and having the locks randomly break for no reason does indeed make it worse in a radar missile meta. The best fighter is the Rafale, with the Su-30SM coming closely behind. The Typhoon is currently worse than even 13.7 jets like the F-15C and J-10A.

Still better than APG-70 in quite noticable amount of scenaries
Which aircraft use the APG-70?
Narrow scan fixes that for the most part
The typhoon was the best plane in the game when it was added, with the rafale closely behind it.
Now the Rafale has surpassed everything by becoming power creep, but the typhoon is still top 3 fighters
It really isn’t

F-15E/I.

In my experience, nothing fixes it.
Only at close range due to its flight performance, which has since been nerfed, even though it was already underperforming.
It really is.

In mine, it does
No, not really
The flight performance nerf affected only mouse aim controls and i see why that might be a problem.
And no, it’s not underperforming (the only thing might be supercruise speed but that’s it)
I wouldn’t call pulling 16Gs at 1500 kph underperforming, or pulling 25 Dps in a ratefight
Or doing backflips at 300 kph with infinite energy and lift.
But sure muh underperforming space ship
Sometimes I wish I could react with a clown emoji to some of these replies. Correct me if I’m wrong, what exactly made the EF the best? The flight model where wings tore off even during instructor-led maneuvers, or the radar that simply didn’t work at all?
i swear defyn has done irreparable damage to the typhoon with his 1v1 video. The flightmodel does not matter half as much as people like to claim. If you have a barely working radar and only 6 amraams youre not going to be the best plane except in killing some troglodytes that dogfight you in their muh-thrustvectoring-SU30
Its impossible to explain to someone with a hammer and sickle (banned symbol in a bunch of countries, btw) on their avatar, that maneuverability means next to nothing in semi-modern air combat, and that the EF’s technical advantages are nerfed for no real reason
Im always hopeful that people like him understand that just because someone shafts them in a dogfight doesnt mean that their plane is unbeatably overpowered

Being good doesn’t mean that it’s not underperforming. It is worse than real life, and thus it is underperforming.

even in game the statistics are just mid. Both the german and the italian typhoon just perform worse than the SU-30 and the british one is on par/slightly better but with only 1/10 of the games played compared to the SU

What does my pfp have to do with anything, but wait until you find out the game its full of insignias of every kind

Speaking of real life, the 9G limiter can actually be disabled, and you can check a typhoon’s structural limits in any real-life test. In game, there’s an intentional design choice: all aircraft can handle more Gs than they realistically could. Subjectively, 12G in the game feels about the same as 9G in real life. The same goes for thrust-to-weight ratio, in-game, it’s about 20–30% higher than in reality, if not more, to make the planes feel more dynamic. This applies to all aircraft, not just the Typhoon. I refuse to believe you haven’t noticed that yourself. And if you have noticed but still keep posting these takes, there’s only one conclusion, you’re just trying to troll.

(Proceeds to buff the MOST ABSURD missile in game) 😭 It’s actually insane I can just fly the Rafale straight up the middls, fire all 8 missiles at anyone under 20km regardless of altitude and get 6+ kills untouched as I turn around, lose no energy, and out accelerate the average missile 😭

Then it’s not really underperforming, is it
