but tranche 1 can still carry 10
You can say gun is not important, but its important when you are jousting or in a dogfight. The 27mm Mauser can’t spray and inflict damage like the 20mm gun on American jets

Really, it’s mainly been US mains and people complaining about British mains that been complaining the most

What are those outer pylon missiles
Most likely 6x SRAAM + 4x MRAAM or 2x SRAAM + 6x MRAAM.
I wouldnt count on a 6+6 or 4+6 loadout until a later variant. I dont think an 2+8 loadout is even possible

ASRAAM, which won’t be added this patch as too advance but the arrangement is the same for AIM-9s
Right, so same load out, anything on TWR and engines?
Should be a better CAS right? GRB 13.0 maybe, time to decompress, not really reasonable to have it same BR as J11A and F15J(M).
I think they were replying to someone saying that the Eurofighter with 12 missiles wouldn’t be a problem because the Su-27(SM) also has 12 missiles in game.
You guess in new trailer show Rafale with domestic french precistion-guided munition Safran AASM Hammer ?
Doubt it, doesn’t it have like 50-70km range?
Not realistically when used in game, but yes, way beyond the pittyful 12 KM of anything but Pantsir.
TWR varies depending on source and laodout.
Typhoon is somewhere between 1.15 and 1.4
Rafale I think is about 1.3 (im guessing that is without load)
(dont quote me on those though)
Britain Typhoon F2. No CAS worth mentioning. If Germany and Italy get CAS on their first Typhoon it wil be 6-8 GBUs. Likely ePaveways in differing sizes. Nothing to right home about.
Rafale, no idea, but between the 2, Rafale is the better CAS aircraft.
In the future, things like the Tyhpoon FGR4 adds Brimstone 2s and then we are at the mercy of Gaijins modeling.
Given that it doesnt really matter whether you bring an 11.3 like a Tornado ASSTA1 or an Su-34 as CAS, you will fight the same aircraft at top tier GRB. GRB BR for it doesnt really seem relevant to me at the moment, not until a decent decompress

For Germany it will be good option, instead of tornado.
Yeah, it would. though I would hope Britain got the Typhoon FGR4 sooner rather than later if Germany and italy did get CAS this update.
Don’t ya worry, we have PGM in game. To say the 40 km (they never reach) is too low is like not saying at all.
All must have their eurofighter, if they work on it. At least we get mostly equals. CAS option needed, because in comparison with Britain, Germany have minimum options.
2(two) more than the F-15, same amount of AMRAAMs, you’re acting like your jet is going to be completely hopeless, which it isn’t, your just going to have to use your brain just like everyone else.
That is quite a big range lol? From what I see with 9 tonne per engine it should be something like 1.5-1.6 empty right? Considering the 11 tonne or so empty weight.
Rafael slightly less 7.5 per engine and 10 tonnes of weight. So around 1.4, similar to J10 and JAS39.
Yep, which is why I dont mind it coming later for Britain, but at hte same time. Typhoon vs Tornado Gr4 would suck for CAS performance if we had to wait a year+.
At a minimum though, Gr7 and Gr4 could both get some long overdue buffs to keep Britain going, especially as CAS is basically the only thing carrying Britain at top tier GRB at the moment
