How about that… A Luftwaffe EF2000 with IRST… ??? Strange…
I have to researh bit more Probably a “prototype” of Phase 1 Enhansement…… at least most of the articles said that now i have to research more serial numbers
-
That should be EF-2000 IPA-7 (Instrumented Production Aircraft - 7) belonging to EADS Manching, a test aircraft. As far as I know, Luftwaffe is not using the Pirate IRST, the only planes using it are the one in the photo and another twin-seater jet.

Yes no IRST and LWR. The latter is also true for other operators except for British and Saudi aircraft. These technologies aren’t actuallycsimulated in BMS anyway. IRST exists as a sensor for AI controlled A/C only, though the LANTIRN FLIR capability could be used to emulate an equivalent capability, as could the Sniper’s AA target tracking. There are ofcourse a couple of other limitations irrespective of the tuning options. I’m excited to see what future BMS iterations may introduce in this respect, considering the already existing avionics options and RWR in particular which already exist in 4.33.
Ideally you have basic system functions which could be tweaked, similar to the current radar, RWR and other functions including checking/un-checking of particular options. But that’s just me dreaming.������
Italian aircrafts have the LWR too, it’s part of the Praetorian DASS (Defensive Aid Sub-System) developed in Italy and adopted by all the operators except Germany (they chose to develop their own system) and Spain (they left because of the costs). The Pirate IRST is used by all operators starting from Tranche 2 - Block 5 aircrafts, Germany is the only nation that doesn’t use it.
-
The laser warner was neither developed by Italy, nor is it used by them or anyone other than the UK and Saudis. Block 5 is the final Tranche 1 build standard.

Such a beauty

Nice target!

other source sites color reports:
Each nations use their own gray shade. Barley Gray is a BS colour that have no sense in Italian Pantone or German RAL system.
German Typhoons use to be paint in the most bluish shade, almost azure.
Colour are as follow:
RAF- BS381C no. 629 Camouflage (Barley) Grey.
Luftwaffe - FS35237
EdA - FS36492
AMI - FS36440 Approx match since officially is 36280 and nobody makes it!
Cockpit is BS381C no. 632 Dark Admiralty Grey.
Leading and trailing edge flap interiors: FS595B 36280 (Slightly lighter than RAF Ocean Grey).
Intake Flap interior: BS381C no. 626 Camouflage (Barley) Grey.
Intakes (Aft of intake flap - Inside intake ducting): FS595B 26492.
Radome: FS595B 36314 Flint Grey (This is supposedly an FS equivalent to Barley Grey, however looking at the real aircraft it appears to have a slight brownish tint).

Congratulations, again for your great works
-
Congratulations from me too, just can’t await to fly her… Italian sister, of course!
With best regards.

Absolutely awesome Manos, great representation of the Typhoon. I’d always thought that “Typhoon” was just the RAF name for this plane but it seems not.
Thanks for all your hard work and looking forward to flying your aircraft
