The Radar is a bug I believe. Aside from that the Typhoon is extremely fast, has some of if not the best flight performance for Air RB, and a great kit. It can do everything tbh.
If the radar isn’t a bug, then yes the F-15E will be and is better
Kinda? The real question is, will Gaijin do anything about it?
Overall though, the F-15E is just as fast and the Rafale will outfight the Typhoon at the moment due to the performance of AESA/MICA + HMD/Magic II.
But a lot of its kit is underperforming as well. Typhoon has a long road ahead of it
In ARB sadly we can’t have these close up fights as much as we want them :(
Its the best top tier fighter currently
I thought they fixed it last patch but seems they haven’t
That would likely be because the Typhoon pilots are avoiding them. F-15s dont really have much choice in the matter. But I know I keep my distance in both ARB and ASB from a Rafale, because I know im at a major disadvantage unless I can keep my distance
Its identical to the 120A in the files. Improved software over the aim120a, and the game doesn’t model software differences at this time.

And the software is only for compatibility, no advantage over the A.

It had some wierd nerfs that the Blue Vixen did not. So they brought it up to parity with the Blue Vixen, but it is missing a number of features that we simply dont know if they will even try to model, let alone actually model. Like Priority track but there are also a number of issues that might simply not be reportable, and therefore wont ever get fixed.
But radars and IRST are in need of some pretty major ground up overhauls. So until then, I dont think we’ll see much in the way of improvements for the CAPTOR-M except the 5 deg/s increase in scan rate due Soon™

Play the J-11A

A few have reported that the J-11A might have the better radar at the moment, or at the very least, isnt that much worse
I trust their judgement. Given the bulk of OPs issues is with the radar. Actually, he does have a bit of a case. The rest of the airframe is great, but the radar performance… is pretty poor

No, I can say I prefer the Magic I to the Magic II and it doesn’t make me right. The N001 is objectively worse than the Captor-M. Sure it has some issues but everyone is so hyperbolic about it. I promise you if faced with the option of taking the N001 on the Eurofighter you never would.
and if given the choice between taking the Buggy Vixen we have now or the actual CAPTOR-M radar with all its bells and whistles (or even just blue vixen), you would never pick what you have now.
I need fakours on my eurofighter fr
(joke)
Duh?
Still doesn’t mean the N001 is better than the Captor-M as of now.
nor does it mean that CAPTOR-M is inherrently better either.
Still happen on all radars AFAIK, since I do still have this issue in my Rafale and Mirages in TWS.
Yeah, I just had it happen to me in a quick ARB match. They added code that would help but it doesnt seem to have helped enough. Either that or it didnt make it to live.
The Captor-M is objectively better and saying it isn’t is either a stupid hyperbole or the words of a double lobotomized iguana.
“Oh no my radar ghosted, it must be worse than the AN/ASG-14 on the F-104A!1!”
The Captor-M has issues that need to be fixed, acting like this does not help your case.
I still have skill issues today.
