Personally I would grind the German Typhoon because its German and I like the slim look of it without PIRATE (for early one). I know it might sound crazy but I would prefer german EFT to stay unique without IRST and with different but accurate radar aswell as smoky AIM-9Li (of choice) because there’s nothing cooler than seeing the missile trail chasing the enemy.
I know people are fixated about meta as if it was the only metric allowing for fun but theres so much more to the game that you can enjoy. German Typhoon by no means would end up being DOA if introduced without these extra 20 degrees of gimball.
Maybe its just because I play all nations but I really cant see the reason for such outrage from German players.
Considering Gaijin has been screwing over the German tech tree of years. There’s “some” bad blood there. The annoyance and outrage is to be expected when they arbitrarily get shafted every time. I’m only referring to the air tree here. The ground tree is fine aside from the arbitrary SLM nerf that came for literally no reason.
Apart from obvious MiG-21 - MiG-23 / F-4F late era that was seriously neglected in favour of USSR and US, I cant say the same about current state of their top tier with F-4F ICE and Typhoon and Tornado variants.
They had to wait a year for the typhoon while their best option was the F4f ice and when they finally got the eurofighter, it had an unplayably bad radar, and a broken fm for months, and it got denied PIRATE despite getting aim9m, paveways, and brimstones. As of the current day yeah, they have it alright, but they still had the weakest eurofighter.
Ngl seeing German mains complain about not getting PIRATE makes no sense to me. The sheer amount of bugs surrounding it genuinely made it an absolute nuisance to play in Air RB as it constantly broke the radar lock for no reason, which got fixed, then reverted back to being broken again by interrupting the radar lock.
Honestly you’re lucky you didn’t get PIRATE, it’s an incredibly situational tool which causes issues more often than it’s useful.
That “slightly” doesnt make the vehicle worse. I’d say that HUN 2a7 is actually worse because of RCS HE trap.
Both are different unrelated upgrades
No argument for that. Its clearly wrong and unfair
I’d say its subjective. The differences are minor and almost gameplay irrelevant. German Typhoon will very well be meta in its current state if thats what you are concerned about.
I didnt realise the Mk1 on the German Typhoon had a fixed array AESA like the Rafale has. I was under the impression that it had +/- 90 and not +/- 60-70. I must be mistaken then
You obviously don’t know how to play if you don’t understand what these 10 degree sectors in the 90-100 range give you; you can follow an already launched missile while in Notch.
Britian simply upgraded their Tornado more than Italy or Germany did. Simple as that. Also, whislt Germany got the Event Tornado with ASMs and the Premium Tornado, we didnt. Heck, britain is still the only one of the 3 that doesnt get an 11.3/10.0 Tornado IDS AND we are the only nation to have a Tornado IDS with the notably weaker Mk101 engines. Using Gaijins logic, the ASSTA1, MFG and WTD61 should all have Mk101 engines to “create a feeling of progression” for the SLE.
Yeah, but Husky said that it was impossible for the new German Typhoon to notch and guide missiels at the same time, which must mean it has less the 90 degrees FoR
