DutchJackal Posted December 29, 2015 Posted December 29, 2015 Found this video about MBDA at the Dubai Airshow 2015. They talk about several weapons being deployed by the typhoon.

DutchJackal Posted January 11, 2016 Author Posted January 11, 2016 I so hope all these weapons will make it to the Typhoon module! :joystick: But I read somewhere the Brimstone missile might be a problem. :(
Pman Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 (edited) Sorry guys but you will get almost none of those bar the ASRAAM. We are not doing Meteor, Brimstone, Marte er or StormShadow. Incidentally I did pop by the MBDA stand at a military trade show last year, the result of that and subsequent meetings is the above. Pman Edited January 11, 2016 by Pman

Pman It`s a shame about Brimstone, because a salvo of these is about the coolest thing you will see:) [ame] [/ame]
Pman Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 It`s a shame about Brimstone, because a salvo of these is about the coolest thing you will see:) Yeh I agree. Some of the demo videos we were shown were astounding in capability. Sadly we have to think more commercially then passionately when it comes to things such as front line modern weaponry. We have abit more latitude with some of the older classic aircraft/warbirds. Pman Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

Ells228 Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 (edited) Let me put it this way, the meeting I had with Thales and BAE Systems today was very interesting; however we will not confirm weapons capability until closer to release time. There is a lot we would like to do but simply put, a lot that we can't do due to sensitivity. Edited January 11, 2016 by Ells228

Incidentally I did pop by the MBDA stand at a military trade show last year, the result of that and subsequent meetings is the above. Pman That is a shame. I suppose it must be something to do with licensing representations of the weapons? Or is that you guys are going for high fidelity and can't get the data? IMHO, a lot of us would be fine with FC3 level modelling of some of these weapons based on 'best guestimates'. It'd be nice to have something closer to the designed capabilities (even if they aren't in service yet - they were planned in the '90s). Heck, it'd be nice to have the capability for mission building even if it is AI only!

IMHO, a lot of us would be fine with FC3 level modelling of some of these weapons based on 'best guestimates'. You could not imagine the shitstorm that will come over these forums when you try to introduce an AA missile only based on some developer specs which are not even FC3 level. :music_whistling: BTW: How to combine a full simulated DCS module with clickable cockpit with weapons which are not even FC3 lvl... Would be a big obstacle for me when it comes to a buying decision. Don't think you can have both, at least the community will have a demand for server override options in weapon selection when choosing between "arcade" and "simulation" servers. Even virtual Hog drivers like me would demand a proof of feasibility and efficiency of the Brimstone on an early block of the Typhoon before throwing this toy into the pool. Edit: A small look into Wikipedia showed that Brimstone, Storm Shadow and Meteor are only available for Version Block 15/+.

Harry.R Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 Guys, early tranche jets will be great fun, and with an austere A/G capability (2009?) would still be capable. Just not THAT capable. Will you model HMSS?
