This year we would probably get next gen IR missile, next gen ARH missile like the meteor and hopefully ECM/EW.
So i got curious, after considering all next gen IR and ARH missile and EW suite along ECM, what would be the best 4.5 gen in the future and why?
Also if your answer would be eurofighter then which nation would have the best eurofighter?
british ef2k
Why?
Probably the German Eurofighter. IRIS-T will be the best Fox 2 for short range engagements, coupled with the meteor that would have superior BVR capabilities to the current AMRAAM that’s modelled. Good airframe and radar, MWS and everything
Really depends on the modeling of ASRAAM vs IRIS T but i think its gonna be one of the EFTs and depending on which IR is better either the German/Italian ones or the British one.
Depending on how far Gaijin is willing to go Eurofighter EK or any EFT with AMK would be kinda insane
Biggest blunder on Gaijins side would be giving every EFT access to both IR missiles. IRIS T, ASRAAM and Meteor on the same plane would be broken as hell

Rafale with MICA NG
Won’t the radar be worst then the other two EFT? IIRC German EFT use captor E mk1 unless they are upgrading it. I think it would be the Italian typhoon since it would be able to carry IRIS’-T while using captor E mk2
It will most likely be italian or british ef2k with asraam, iris-t and meteors
British Eurofighter.
ASRAAM will chase you like you owe it a cuppa, 6 Meteor missiles and Captor ECRS Mk.2… do I need to say more lol
Of course, Italian Eurofighter will be the comparable option, but no one really plays Italy so GB stats will be “bigger” in comparison.
A “silent” strong one would be Gripen E: 7 Meteors, ES-05 (similar to ECRS Mk.2), IRIS-T and basically endless countermeasures. Sure, it’s not the fastest but it can survive longer in an environment where everyone has cracked missiles.
P.S. Gaijin, 360 RWR/MAW when?
Honourable mention: F-15EX. Purely for the undefeated MCM potential in ASB. 16 missiles? All of which can be AMRAAM D??? Yes please.
Considering gaijin now gives weapon on basis of compatibility, I won’t be surprised to see both IR missile on all EFT
It will only get 16 missile if gaijin is generous or else it would be stuck with 12 missiles only :(
We already have r-73, 27ER and 27ET on the same platform. Not a big deal really in current meta.
Unless they would decide to uncripple the good old IR meta, then it woudn’t be a big deal either though.

Rafale.
Or Gripen if Gaijin bothered to model it half correctly. Thing’s an utter joke at the moment, purely out of malice on the part of the devs.
Thats why im kinda scared.
Yeah but theyre russian missiles on russian planes, not modern european missiles on a Eurofighter
