Talk:Eurofighter Typhoon variants

message: I would suggest that this page should be named Eurofighter Typhoon F2, using the customer's name as part of the aircraft name is not a standard nomenclature - do we have RAF Spitfire somewhere ! - any comments from watchers MilborneOne 17:01, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

message: I have removed the reference to Major James Loden's (3 Para) remark that either the RAF, or something they were doing in Afghanistan, was 'utterly, utterly useless'.  Mahor Loden was reported as saying 
"... Harrier pilot 'couldn't identify the target', fired two phosphorous rockets that just missed our own compound so that we thought they were incoming RPGs [rocket-propelled grenades], and then strafed our perimeter, missing the enemy by 200 metres," 
RAF Harriers in theatre are not equipped with guns (see ADEN 25 here: ADEN cannon) (unfortunatley) so it is not clear exactly what is being referred to here.  Whatever he meant, it is not completely relevant here. Mumby 20:46, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

message: There is currently an ongoing discussion concerning deleting or merging a separate Navalised Eurofighter article. Would anybody who is interested visit the Navalised Eurofighter page and contribute to the AfD discussion.  Nipsonanomhmata  (Talk) 13:06, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

message: Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted.
Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia.
This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link.
If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting.
If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page.
If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta.
When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags.
The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true.
Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Is this the same thing as the "Retrofit 2" mentioned in this article? Hcobb (talk) 00:45, 17 November 2015 (UTC)

message: If the Indian Navy pursues a catapult launch carrier, the Typhoon is completely uncompetitive against tender rivals (e.g. Rafale and Super Hornet) since meeting "... catapult requirements would add too much weight to the aircraft, blunt performance and add substantially to modification costs".[32]

message: It seems Germany has given the green light for the Eurofighter ECR development, with IOC for 2028. Perhaps it should be moved from Proposed Versions into the main body? Also apparently its no longer called Eurofighter ECR, now its Eurofighter EK, stemming from the German "Eurofighter Elektronischer Kampf":

replies: text: Yes they have evolved the concept a bit, dropped some proposed features of the ECR while adding others and its not really set in stone, they are soliciting EW equipment suppliers to make their pitches. As it stands at the moment it looks like they are pursuing a modular approach where the aircraft can move between a limited range stand off wide-area jamming, suppressing enemy air defence (with HARM) or Stand-in jammers (protecting wingmates) by swapping between pods.
