IRL takeoff gross mass which is operating gross mass plus internal fuel, 4 amraams and two aim 9’s is 17000kg but a completely stock German eurofighted without irst and no missiles is 18600kg

17000kg I think is the dry airframe weight, so no fuel or weapons.

Ingame it is I think 300kg too heavy

I’ve got something’s I can’t show but it says 17000kg with internal fuel 4 amraams and 2 aim 9L’s

Publically available figures are different and actually, checking the bug report, dry weight is 11’000 kg and not 17’000 kg. So i mis-remembered the report
