No Stealth, No Problem! RAF Eurofighter Typhoon is the World's most deadly multi-role fighter jet

[@dennisleighton2812]

Meteor missile - bit of a homework gap there Mr Producer! This missile gives Typhoon (and other Meteor enabled planes) a huge advantage! But, not being US sourced means the Producer doesn't even know about it, only the antiquated AMRAAM. Even the latest AMRAAM updates leave it a generation behind Meteor, and the much-vaunted "New" slew of missiles the US talks about remain nothing but very hazy intentions, and hopes, but very little by way of definite, solid deadlines and proof of operational use at squadron level. Till then Meteor reigns supreme, with no viable competitors.

The Typhoon is actually a Gen 4.5 fighter with some stealth features (like the use of RAM and recessed ordinance), but can be better described as low observable with a reduced RCS and gen 5 level avionics with a helmet mounted display, voice command systems and data link and multi track management.

[@MGKmuzique]

The problem starts when it fights 5++ fighter jets like TFX kaan and F22 or Su75s otherwise it is a great fighter jet no doubt

[@NATObait]

Well their are no in service TFX Kaan it's still in testing. F22 is not on anyone's side other than the US , so fights are ' training ' as for proposed Russian aircraft they are not Stealthy or even purchased yet. So that gives an answer for the next 10 years.

[@deltaforceshuttles3749]

There is something just really nice and simplistic about the euro fighter that I like as a platform / it’s like a more modern f 16 with a delta wing

[@The23Anonymous]

There is nothing simple about the Eurofighter. It litterally finishes manneuvers up to 12 gs, even if the pilot already passed out. So it monitors the vital signs of its pilot and finishes the manneuver for the pilot, while keeping him alive and safe. This is why the Eurofighter can do maneuvers so much more rapid than other aircraft. It might not look as fancy as a F22 and may not be able to start vertically etc. But it's by no means a less complex and less capable aircraft.

A blackjack could gracefully pull away from an F-35, which would have to reheat just to keep up for a short while.

[@johnmiles79]

@@joelbilly1355 The F-35 in any form can intercept and kill an intruder very capably indeed. But that isn't what is required. A QRA role means drawing up alongside to declare you are there and watching, keeping an eye on things. Russian aircraft can play silly buggers with the F-35 where they cannot with the purposely designed Typhoon. The F-35 has a bluff form to conceal weapons internally. It needs more power at any given speed than a Typhoon as a result. All it is is that the F-35 is designed for stealth. And since part of that is going slow enough not to heat the skin to detectable temperatures, it is perfectly designed. The QRA role is the domain for athletes. An old fashioned but still necessary show of muscle. Eleven second from a standstill, a Typhoon can be pointing vertically upwards if need be. Other aircraft might make the attempt, but the Typhoon can then just burn fuel and carry on going straight up until literally out of sight. Yes it will need a refuel at the top :-) but pure muscle.

[@johnmiles79]

@@alexs.4340 An F16 can lower drag by carrying less. An F-35 cannot. So, to maintain your comparison, when F-16's, Mirages and Gripens skinny up, they can perform QRA roles adequately. F-15's and Typhoons are the aircraft of choice though.

On a hovercrafting and spa weekend my wife and I stayed at a hotel that was converted from the buildings used to house fighter pilots from WW2,opposite was a huge airbase and we had picked a weekend when the airbase was much busier than usual,apparently. I found a local pub and soon got chatting to quite a large bunch of RAF guys,some were pointed out by others as Typhoon pilots and seemed to be getting all the questions aimed their way. One civilian local guy who was chatting with us seemed to know a bit more than your average joe about the typhoon and when he asked one of the typhoon pilots about its versatility concerning its weapons options, the pilot likened it to a USB port😊.

With the rising cost of stealth materials research and the way radar tech is becoming more precise the yanks may well find themselves with a fleet of F22's that become obsolete before they see action. Britain buying the F35 is really more a case of hedging our bets than giving up on more offence focused research goals. Remember before the development of stealth Britain led the world in active electronic warfare with the Vulcan's famously waltzing through everything the American military could muster on their home soil. But I've no doubt if we do develop a technically superior system we'll end up giving them the technology for buttons like we always do like we did with all our naval and aviation tech during WWII for perfectly valid reasons and with our jet research shortly after because we were naive enough to trust them not to immediately build their own civilian versions and steal all our overseas trade after we sacrificed everything to pay for fighting Hitler.

@Rabmac1UK The reason the defence budget fell from 5.5% to 2.3% (now 2.7%) is beause we no longer saw russia as a serious threat after the fall of the USSR, therefore the threat was no longer a major land battle in europe thus a large land army was not precieved as nessassery. But instead the saber rattling came from argentina, as every election cycle one or more party will bring up the falklands, therefore concern was on projection of power rather through the navy (to safe guard our various overseas territories not covered by NATO), So lots of money was spent on finishing Trident (that went over budget) our two new supercarriers, and modernizing our other ships. Oh and throwing money at the wall known as challeger 3, (could have developed a new tank for the cost of developing the challenger 3 ugrade kit, in the sense of the delevopment cost and actually upgrading the actual tank, cost per unit challanger 2 is £4.3m, upgrade cost £5.8m, keep in mind challanger 3 costs around £5m to build new)

Not sure why the MOD Procurement Executive seems to have lost interest in the Typhoon. Granted, there's the new upgrade path but we're not looking at expanding the Typhoon fleet and it's a great aircraft and can be better still. The RAF should look at a Typhoon 2 - not just upgrading existing aircraft (needed) but building new airframes to an upgraded spec, learning lessons from the F35. The RAF needs more airframes and simply put, cannot afford the F35. A Typhoon 2 would fill the gap between the upgrades of the present Typhoon and the Tempest, which is a very long way off.

It has to do it all because the other countries in the consortium (mainly Germany) required a multi-role platform & the aircraft is all the better for it. ​In regards to the F35. The UK government slowed down the buying process because after the initial 'debacle' in the early development stages of the F35. We didn't want to be 'lumbered' with a fleet full of early version F35s, only to then waste even more time & money upgrading them once they leave the production line. Now, also with the backlog in the production process of F35s. In hindsight, it's turned out to be the correct move. Here's an excerpt from an interview from Ben Wallace. UK's, 'then' Secretary of state for defence. "Its important for me to say to BAE Systems, Lockheed Martin and all the other [ contractors] that ‘It’s in your interest to keep through-life support costs down’ because simply, I don’t want to be held to a massive bill I can’t get out of. We need more than 48 and we will invest in more than 48, but I’m not in the business of giving a blank check to contractors if they don’t play their part in cost controls, support and indeed making sure Britain’s developed capabilities are put on them [ the F-35 ], " Wallace told lawmakers.

[@dorianrawls1927]

Strangely in all tests where it competes with the Rafale it seems to be less efficient as an omnirole, its only superiority over the Rafale being its speed and specific role as an interceptor (both airplanes can carry the Meteor missile). It was specifically designed as an interceptor and note a true multirole (it was then upgraded to try to fill some air to ground missions and failed in its attempt to include electronic warfare), that's the main reason why France chose to leave the european project to build its own 4.5 omnirole. In the end many countries are choosing either the Rafale or the F-35, not the Eurofighter.

And even if you are lucky enough to detect a stealth aircraft you don't have an accurate enough radar to actually get a weapons lock on it at least not at any large distance, and the weapons themselves also can have trouble maintaining a lock! The Iraq army actually managed to down a F-117 purely because they were lucky enough to have their old Russian radar pointing in the right direction as the F-117 opened it's ordinance bay doors for the brief time needed to drop it's bombs. They were even luckier to get a weapons lock and fire before the bay closed.

​@@DireW0lf0 That happened in Serbia a decade after the gulf war.....The ONLY thing they have in common is their shared experience in suffering a quick and comprehensive defeat.

[@Maddog-xc2zv]

@@patrickf4692 yep, it was in Seerbia and the must culprit is not the radar nor the stealth. The problem is that the pilot always used the same route and deployed weapons at the same range everytime. He got lazy and sloppy. A serbian anti aircraft missile battery and it's radar already got the blip of the plane, but not enough to lock a missile. Eventually they got there: every time the pilot opened the bay to engage stealth would kaput and a lock would be possible. That's ho the first F-117, and the only for my knowledge, was shotdown over serbian skies. If the pilot was more careful, he would never have been shot. But since then stealth users learned a lot and tech saw tremendous evolution. But, ofc, others still work also their best to defeat stealth with more modern and capable radars. But now stealth is not everything for stealth fighters, but also advanced electronic warfare able to blind enemy radars and then joined with stealth it makes a tremendous mix - plus the ability to relay info to 4 or 4,5 gen fighters which are trucks of ammo to attack different enemies bvr. Tech and the best human capital together always have the plus side.

[@kaijenkins4513]

lol no, there is no evidence of a stealth aircraft actually being targeted in a real life scenario and I wouldn’t use the Serbs as an example.

No the French Rafael is a better fighter which is why its selling so well.

Its doing better because you only deal with one country (France) no other country can block the sales / Spare Parts. Until recently Germany blocked the sale of Typhoons to Saudi/Turkey.

because the Rafael is cheap

[@TheKatakali]

The Rafale is the better multirole jet, carrier based in (M version), SEAD (only Indian) and nuclear capable (only French), but never as a fighter, less air to air missiles in number and variants (with 1 or 3 external fuel tanks) and worse flight performance than the Eurofighter Typhoon. The Eurofighter can be a figher and attack/ bomber in 1 version, while the Rafale needs 2 (C and D) Also dont compare the Rafale and the Eurofighter... they are different ! The Rafale is like a F/A 18 Super Hornet (multirole strike fighter) and the Eurofighter Typhoon is like a F15 Eagle (air superiority fighter and interceptor with multirole capabilities).

[@jorgetrincheira2120]

Pure shit in front of Rafale !

[@augustiner3821]

that was for the French psyche. The Rafale is nice, but underpowered compared to the Eurofighter.

[@didierjacob250]

le rafale , seul avion qui transporte une fois et demi son poids en armement, a gagné tout ses duels contre l' eurofighter qui a toujours été recalé lors des competitions, que le rafale a déjà remporté . le mirage 2000 C vole a 2700 km/h bien plus vite que l' euro fighter, mais la vitesse n' est plus aussi importante, le missile météor vole à mac 4, et le rafale est un vrai omnirole, incursion attaque au sol très basse altitude 1000km/h, le radar qui pilote l' avion....et ça l' eurofighter ne sais pas faire , moins d' emport de munitions etc etc etc

France's export policy is much more relaxed than the German, where still a big part of the Bundestag does not want to send weapons to conflict zones and regimes with bad humanity records. It's France's choice to ignore those aspects in favour of good business. And I did not say its a bad airplane, it's just not better than the Eurofighter.
