Did they say anything about meteor?

[Kazansky222]

I just read the newsletter and faq real quick, didn't see anything about weapons, specifically meteor, thats really all I care about. Has anybody seen anything said about that?

 

Meteor = hype

no meteor = new plane, same air to air weapons... cool.

Did they say anything about meteor?

 

Yes they did.

[Fri13]

Yes they did.

 

Are you sure?

Links to that?

[Kazansky222]

yea thats what I figured.

[Keks]

its in the faq.

[Kazansky222]

yea....

Truegrit, please, please focus on A2G capabilities (Brimstone and Paveway iV would be especially welcome)

The Eurofighter has only used A2G capabilities in RL scenarios...and do we really need another jet just to lob more and more active radar missiles towards furballs in PVP in the complete complete absence of a realistic A2A environment (AWACS/Datalink/IFF capabilities etc)

[Schmidtfire]

Has the Meteor even been integrated yet? Typhoon is a European fighter with canards,

but it is not a Gripen =)

British (and Spanish?) Typhoons are already flying with Meteor in active service. German Typhoons will start doing the same this year.

So because its such a recent addition its probably not feasible to expect the meteor for the typhoon in DCS.

Brimstone is UK only. TG are modeling a German EF initially. Manage your expectations accordingly.

Welp.

That is correct - initially ;)

The meteor is gonna be soooooo banned in many servers... But a nice addition for SP.

[Matchstick]

I'll be happy just to have a well modelled AA focused Tyhoon.

 

Anything beyond that is a bonus - though if you can manage to add Brimstone somwhere down the line.... :)

Exactly this.

I'll take reasonably realistic high fidelity Tranche 1 over fictional made up castrated Tranche 2/3 any day.

 

I believe TrueGrit know which variant can be modeled in realistic manner and which - not.

the CEO of TrueGrit said that if Boeing add thrust vectoring on a production model and not just limited to test planes then he will add it to DCS and I quote "If Boeing brings it out of their basement and we can get info on it we'll try to add it" ...considering Boeing's new Tranch 4 is going to have it as standard....yeah preeeetty sure its going to be a frankin module

I'm hearing again from Boeing... Have I missed something? Neither the plane nor the engine is from boeing with the EF?

[falcon_120]

Yeah, what is this boeing thing? :/

First of all, boeing doesnt have anything to do with the EF. Tranche 4 isnt going to have tvc as standard, there isnt even any real info out there on what exactly a Tranche 4 will have. Airbus is the primary german contractor (and spanish).

I don't think anyone really thinks tvc are worth it for the EF, they also add weight and its already a very maneuverable airplane.

[TLTeo]

Tranche 3B hasn't even been ordered and you already have features that may or may not be on Tranche 4...

Tranche 3B is dead since years. Hence T4.

Who knows ? Maybe Southernbear is working for Boeing in the procurement department and... you know like Microsoft bought companies to acquire SW technologies they were not able or wanting to do themselves, Boeing will buy Airbus to be able to build passenger aircraft and high-performance fighters again ? :music_whistling:

 

So maybe he already knows stuff we don't ? ;)

Sorry my mistake I get Airbus and Boeing confused all the time. *I meant* Airbus
