The Typhoon must be a real delight. I stilll have a copy of Rage software's "Eurofighter Typhoon: Operation Icebraker" based on DID technology.

 

Can you imagine flying with that kind of avionics? Beats having Tom-Tom in your car!

Are those pics of the real MFD screens, or are they for a sim? Heh...sorry for the question, but I'm afraid I can't read German. :D

1024x1024, that's some really nice resolution for this MFD.

Even screen of that MFD in real is much bigger then the images provided on that page. I'd like to see full scale resolution images now. Anyone seen any?

Check this brochure out. I did a magnetometer calibration on one of these systems yesterday. Its a pretty slick system. Air data, AHARS, NAV, GPS, weather, terrain, approach charts, radar, traffic avoidance, engine monitoring, fuel management...and the list goes on, all laid out nicely on two color displays. The jury is still out on its reliability, but it seems to be doing well so far.

Wow!

 

Wow real time weather systems.

 

Hyp-lob would be even cooler if we had to fly with "weather-storms-huricanes-typhoons" ;)

 

Nice research thats worth rep-points

 

P.S. Iguana King They wont let me add to your rep, I need to sperad it among other members.

DID did a great job with EF2000.

 

I would love to get close to one of them or talk to a pilot.

 

:thumbup:

 

I also did enjoy playing EF2000 but wasn't it basically a fictional sim? Because at the time (don't even remember what year EF2K was released) Typhoon was still very very early in development that all avionics and weapon system were based on... I don't even know what it was based on actually but it couldn't have been the actual EF2000.

 

I haven't followed up on current Typhoon's specs and performances but at least in that sim, I thought it was way overpowered.

Lockon's birds really need some upgraded avionics!
