Gentlemen
What about leaving the troll starving? Didn’t daddy tell you chaps: “Don’t feed the troll!”? Use the ignore list or simply don’t read the badnwith robbery, but don’t throw more food at the tmeh scorp, you just liroll, otherwise you’ll just attract him to come back!
WRT the ongoing discussion, well it’s obvious that arguments are going pass each other. Why? Maybe because the points raised are simply not too well understood by either side. People look at the evolution roadmap that Eurofighter has outlined over a decade ago and they measure the actual progress against that roadmap. Viz a viz that roadmap the Typhoon is far behind the curve, what’s being ignored in the first place here is that:
1.) That roadmap was just an industry concept that was never commited to or funded by the customers!
2.) That roadmap thus never existed in the first place as a firm plan and is long obsolete either!
At the end of the day it is as it is. It’s not like other aircraft are looking exactly like what has been proposed they could look like at this time frame! I’ll restrain myself from bringing up any particular examples as I already know how this would end up…
Considering the roadmap proposed more than a decade ago it’s not surprising that many confuse tranches and blocks with capability standards, however they should know better as this subject has been covered countless times. I’m for my part increasingly tired to repeat myselfs, so let the dumb die the way they are. It’s not worth the effort!
One additional remark: Modern combat aircraft capability is largely driven by software, measuring the “progress” made by what you can see on the outside just demonstrates that most of the laymen here have simply no clue and insight into how things work and if they would actually know what hardware changes the Typhoon programmes has experienced from block 1 to the latest block 15, they would actually laughing out loud at statements like “the aircraft is at it was 10 years ago and hasn’t changed a bit”. Argueably there is a LOT that isn’t covered in the public domain for good reason, but there is enough out there to get an idea. However this requires some dedication and effort that people usually lack wrt aircraft that they aren’t primarily interested in.
Just my 2 ct
Meh scorp u just killed my drop6 trolling capability, unfair!
