Still looking, so don´t be shy! If flying at low altitude and shooting the enemy at point blank range makes you feel uncomfortable - I´m also looking for a F-16 partner.

German Air Force Orders 20 Additional Eurofighter Multirole Fighter Jets for Delivery in 2031-2034 Manching, Germany, 15 October 2025 – Germany is strengthening its defence capabilities with the purchase of 20 new Eurofighters. Under the contract, Airbus will produce the multi-role combat aircraft at its final assembly line in Manching, near Munich in Germany. The first aircraft is scheduled for delivery to the German Air Force in 2031, the last in 2034. "This new order is further proof of the Eurofighter’s importance to the German Air Force and the strategic role it plays in our country’s air defence and NATO capabilities,” said Mike Schoellhorn, CEO of Airbus Defence and Space. “The continued evolution of the Eurofighter serves as an essential technological and operational bridge to a Future Combat Air System (FCAS), ensuring a seamless transition to the next generation of air power. With these additional Eurofighters, Germany strengthens its ability to conduct surveillance of its airspace and secure NATO’s skies, supporting Germany in its role as a reliable partner for collective security.” Airbus will equip the 20 Eurofighters with the latest sensors. This includes, for example, the new electronic E-Scan radar. In parallel, Airbus will add electronic warfare capabilities to the German Eurofighter fleet by integrating the Arexis sensor suite, developed by Sweden’s Saab, in existing and newly built aircraft. These significant technological upgrades will further enhance the already broad operational capabilities of German Air Force Eurofighters. As the largest European defence programme, involving Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK, the Eurofighter is not only a guarantor of security. It is also a driver of growth and employment. The Eurofighter secures more than 100,000 jobs in Europe, 25,000 of them in Germany alone. 120 German suppliers are involved in the programme. With this new contract, nine countries have ordered more than 740 Eurofighters, namely Germany, Italy, Spain, the United Kingdom, Austria, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kuwait and Qatar - making the Eurofighter the most successful European fighter jet programme in production. The Eurofighter is planned to remain in service with the German Air Force until the 2060s. In the FCAS, which is scheduled to be operational from 2040, the Eurofighter will also operate networked with current and future crewed and uncrewed aircraft – and continue to help pilots fulfil their missions.

Munich, 29 November 2023 – Now it's official: The Eurofighter EK (Electronic Combat) is coming. Following the recent parliamentary approval by the German budget committee, Airbus will equip 15 German Eurofighters for electronic combat - and equip them with a transmitter location and self-protection system from Saab, as well as "AARGM" anti-radar missiles from the American company Northrop Grumman. The Eurofighter EK is to be NATO-certified by 2030 and will then replace the Tornado in the SEAD (Suppression of Enemy Air Defence) role. "Electronic warfare and reconnaissance are an important NATO requirement: current conflicts and the present security situation show how important the two capabilities are," says Airbus Defence and Space CEO Michael Schöllhorn. "In this respect, the German government's decision to include such an important capability as electronic warfare in the Eurofighter capability portfolio is an important measure. EK will add this important capability to the already broad operational spectrum of the Eurofighter while strengthening European sovereignty and autonomy." With the parliamentary approval by the Budget Committee, the Eurofighter is now officially set as the successor to the Tornado ECR (Electronic Combat/Reconnaissance). Airbus is now looking forward to the official order to integrate the selected technical solutions into the Eurofighter. The corresponding contract between Eurofighter GmbH, as prime contractor, and NETMA (NATO Eurofighter and Tornado Management Agency) is expected to be signed before the end of the year. With Saab’s transmitter location system and the Anti-Radiation Guided Missile (AARGM) from Northrop Grumman, the Eurofighter EK will be able to detect, localise and disable anti-aircraft radars. In addition, the Saab solution has jammers that improve the Eurofighter's self-protection. The Eurofighter EK also has technologies on board that were developed by small and medium-sized enterprises and a start-up. These include an AI solution that makes it possible to analyse radar data on-board and quickly determine precise self-protection measures. Airbus is currently working with the BAAINBw procurement office, the German Air Force and the Bundeswehr Aviation Office on a detailed schedule for the implementation of the selected EK solutions in 15 Eurofighters.

Maybe all you need is a little practice as both, the Laser and the IR Mav do work? Here´s what I did: Laser Mav - Use TGT Pod to find conveniently placed SA-8 - Make TGT Pod SOI - 10nm roll in on target - Fire Laser - TMS up to uncage Maverick - 9nm pickle - turn and keep target within 8nm IR Mav - Use TGT Pod to find SA-8 - Make TGT Pod SOI - 10nm roll in on target - Slave Mav to target - Zoom in Mav - TMS up to lock Maverick - 9nm pickle - turn and head home

Check the date of your Mission. If it´s still 1944 (default), then there´s no GPS available and this may be the reason for the miss.

I have 2 figures, 250 - 290 & 280 - 320. Guess that reflects different users (Spain/ France?).

So, I did run a quick test and indeed my bombs never picked up the laser (both with 1688 & 1655). However, I do run a modded version and am too lazy to set up a complete test environment right now. I do wonder why noone else has reported any issues so far. Did anyone of the posters in this thread actually tried it with the latest beta?

After you end the mission, in the debrief screen, you can see a button that says "save as track file" or something like that. This one has a *.trk extension and you can attach it here if it´s not too big.

No they didn´t. Any isolated event is most likely user error. But without a track file or the mission itself everything here is speculation.

Your ASL line needs to be exactly in the middle, else it won´t work.
