Euro Fighter

The fast and maneuverable single-seat, twin-engine aircraft is known for its versatility and is used in air-to-air, air-to-ground, and tactical reconnaissance roles, made possible by its stealth technology. The Typhoon has an internally mounted 27mm gun. It also has four beyond-visual-range air-to-air missiles and two short-range air-to-air missiles. For air-to-surface missions, the Typhoon carries anti-armor weapons—three under each wing and one under the center fuselage—as well as laser-guided weapons.

well is this true? or is it just a f-18 with a new name?

It unfornantly sucks :(
The mig blows it away hands down.

Although the new attack helicopter has the same machine gun as the Mi-28 but only 2x as fast. It tears **** up.

Yea the euro fighter sucks monkey balls. It moves like the F-18. I pray when EA comes out with the hotfix patch this will be fixed also. I am really disappointed with this new plane.

The euro fighter steers right without any keys being pressed

De plane Boss! De Planeeee!

I hope it's good. We need a fun plane to fly around in. Maybe they could paint it pink and add little bunnies on the sides.

So does it really have those weapons, or is it your standard hype everything up then just give an f-18 with a different model job.

Probably to compensate for the face jets lock on omginstantly and don't miss

sounds kinda like ur joystick is out of calibration.

pretty good flying Sir. Hoppum. but i was more interested in the weapons of the plane.

from the video it appears that the euro fighter is the exact same weapon setup as all the other fighters.

6 A2A and 2 bombs.

the description clearly says 4 beyond visual range. which would mean that it can lock on way before the f-18 does as its only in visual range.

how do you play the bigger maps to get the aircraft on single player???
i think there's mods and stuff. but the easy ready to go way is create local in multiplayer.

I was more interested in the weapons aswell, all i'm after is a yes no answer if they are the same or new. To get the bigger maps they are more than likely starting their own local server.

Yep, I was interested in this quote too....personally I dont consider a pair of 1000lb dumb bombs anti-armour ( even though in game, thats what we have on the other fighters)
Thought we may have had AGM-65 Mavericks or the like.
Still, I suppose its all about balance.......

It looks like the Phantom that we saw in Vietnam, but it flies like an F-18.
If I may choose? I would fly to the enemy's base and hop out. Look for a MIG-29 and get the hell outta there!!!!!!!
