Gero answered that question in an interview before, when the Eurofighter was first announced (can't remember which but I think it was a Grim Reapers one) and iirc it was something along the lines of it'd probably not work that well, but they might integrate it and jokingly added that it would make it more realistic if it doesnt work that well. But keep in mind this wasnt a confirmation and before the heatblur partnership.

DCS: Me 262 Discussion (Development on hold currently)
Etirion replied to NineLine's topic in Western Europe 1944-1945
Since there had been chat about it at the beginning of the pandemic. I only just read the news that the FHCAM will reopen. Paul Allen's Flying Heritage museum sold to Walton family aviation enthusiast and will reopen – GeekWire Hopefully this means the 262 with brand new Jumos will get to actually fly one day! Edit: I hope this isnt too off-topic -
Progress pictures on the Eurofighter Typhoon
Etirion replied to DashTrueGrit's topic in DCS: Eurofighter
Timestamped the Eurofighter bit. -
I think we can be pretty certain of that, I'm not aware of a single in-service Eurofighter that can't AAR.
-
Heatblur is busy with the F4 for a 2022 release, I'd guess late 2023 for Eurofighter EA.

DCS: Eurofighter Mini-Update - The New Office
Etirion replied to Cobra847's topic in DCS: Eurofighter

No, technically that plane doesn't exist in the real world. Meteor is a very new weapon at which point all the Eurofighter operators already had all their Tranche 2 Jets capable of ground attack as far as I'm aware. (Warning: Joke) But then again I'm gonna guess that at least in the Luftwaffe there probably aren't enough bombs available for all the tranche 2 Jets so practically those do exist

Its not christmas without smashing a few dcs forum lights

No that doesnt have anything to do with DCS

What does this "W" symbol in the HUD exactly do?
Etirion replied to majapahit's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
Thats really beyond my knowledge -

Etirion replied to majapahit's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
Well its not 100% accurate of course since AoA is technically the angle between the oncoming wind and wing chord and not the nose position and velocity vector, but since the velocity vector at least in the vertical pretty much always points into the wind and the nose position is close to the 0 angle of the wing its a good reference for AoA. You can check it in game as well. -
Psst, thats aircrew interview not the FPP The Typhoon FPP interview is this one
-
Bei sovielen Flugzeugen ist meist die Wake Turbulence das Problem.

Saying that it'd be cool to get it if they can and "it will be developed" are 2 very different things
-
You're right that would work.

The AMRAAM is a BVRAAM, the latter is not a specific type of missile it just stands for beyond visual range air to air missile vs SRAAM, short range air to air missile, which on the typhoon would be ASRAAM or IRIS-T. You probably mean meteor? But why would you go with 2 different type of BVRAAM? Also not entirely sure how the pictures are supposed to relate, the upper one has a triple rack of brimstones (a/g missiles) and 2 paveway IV
-
As far as I'm aware that double rack is not used on any real jet as of right now. The big A/A loadout we can expect would be 6 Meteor, 2 Iris-T.

A HUGE LEAP for EF2000!But consider UK version?
Etirion replied to nthere's topic in Heatblur Simulations
The typhoon largely depends on software, very similar to dcs in the sense that updates come in to add new stuff, although its not as simple as just hooking up an ethernet cable and hitting "update" obviously . Its not like Blocks or Lots for the F16 and F18. -
Na da sind die Meteors ja endlich!

Seems to be back up!

The Austrian Tiffys are T1 Jets that were initially part of the German order, to compensate Germany ordered more T2 IIRC -
Wow, thats actually got me even more excited!
