Eurofighter Typhoon Professional 2 for FSX/FS2004

Along with the original repaints, of which there are more than a dozen, are two brand new liveries representing the JG-73 with the new blue squadron crest and the current special livery, as well as Indian Air Force and special prototype liveries. So you can fly the most up to date Eurofighter in existence. Still incorporating the real acting dirt and scuff marks that can make the visual experience so memorable; they give the aircraft the feel of a long and accomplished service history, making it all the more thrilling to fly.

Many small details to the exterior mesh of the model have been reworked or added in to balance out the fidelity of all the aircraft elements. From revising the fin and smoothing the cockpit, to adding in detailed turbine blades. Even if only for aesthetic benefits, the changes are appreciated as they do help prevent those jarring moments that can break your immersion.

Certain animations, primarily ailerons, have been tweaked so that they behave accurately under supersonic conditions. As well as subtle changes to the flight dynamics that result in a slightly slower start acceleration, a more subdued braking effect and automatic trim. Many other changes have been implemented to improve your experience, down to the smallest details like making the numbers displayed in the HUD slightly larger. While a lot of these changes may not be noticeable at first, slowly they will all come into play.

Going so far as to add a new chapter in the Flight Manual entitled 'Aerodynamic Eurofighter in the subsonic and supersonic', AFS-Design have clearly thought of everything and outdone the original package; delivering so many new features to improve on areas they felt they were lacking. The result is stunning model with great performance and features that is tremendous fun to fly. We are lucky, that AFS-Design have such commitment and dedication to their work.

The Eurofighter is a single-seat, twin-engine, agile combat aircraft which will be used in the air-to-air, air-to-ground and tactical reconnaissance roles. 
Developed by Europe’s leading aerospace companies, Eurofighter Typhoon is now in service with the Air Forces of Germany, Spain, Italy and the United Kingdom and will fulfill Air Force requirements well into the 21st Century. Aircraft production is ongoing and with 638 aircraft under contract to the four Partner Nations and Austria, as the first export customer. The design of Eurofighter Typhoon is optimized for air dominance performance with high instantaneous and sustained turn rates, and specific excess power. Special emphasis has been placed on low wing loading, high thrust to weight ratio, excellent all round vision and carefree handling.

The weapon system Eurofighter is a high performance fighter aircraft for use in both air defense and in the air assault role. The Eurofighter is a multi-role combat aircraft of the latest generation. In the Air Forces releases from the Eurofighter of MiG-29 Fulcrum and F-4F Phantom II and a large part of the Tornado fighter bomber. Through its ability to network-centric operations, there is a close association with both its own air, land and naval forces as well as with those used military allies. In action ensures superior effectiveness of the weapon system for air combat and scope to larger distances (beyond visual range) to protect its own forces and resources and increase the enforcement of the related air operations. This effect can produce the weapon system during the day and night and under all weather conditions and in complex scenarios. Currently, the Air Force uses the Eurofighter in the air defense role. By 2012, the multi-role capability of the weapon system be established.

In developing the Eurofighter, the demand was as fast as possible targets, even at great distances to reach the foreground. Therefore, the Eurofighter was designed for a minimum weight for high thrust out. The engines generate enough energy to even without an afterburner to fly at supersonic speed. Positive side effect the very good relationship between thrust and weight, is to be dispensed during normal flight operations to the use of the afterburner for takeoff. This results in lower noise and lower Schadstoffemisionen also in reduced fuel consumption. The Eurofighter comes in two versions as one-and two-seater built, whose external dimensions are the same.
