Hehe look out... Wait a Bloody Second Mate, The Only Current PLA Fighter is the J-10 and i cant Remember what the Devs Said about it but i Sure as hell never want to see that Fighter Again. Maybe the Devs Secretly Finished the J-11? (Chinese Su-27 Dontcha Know) But that Typhoon Is Sexy!, Is it the Current Air-to-Air Version or the Modified Multirole?

I love how the watermark in the pic says : Mach 3. That's great considering the EFs max speed is Mach 2.

Heh, The Typhoon will be no match for the J-10s of the PLAAF! And the Q-5s will blow it out of the sky without even trying!

The EF2000 is far superior to the J-10, its a twin engine fighter for a start where the J-10 only has 1.
the EF2000's combat efficacy is just under the F-22, put it that way

However.......... in RL, it seems there's not enough available cannon rounds to deploy the Typhoon.

The Mauser Bk-27mm cannon was going to be left out of the RAF Eurofighter Typhoon, however.... An e-mail was received from a Paratroop Major at a remote base in Afghanistan. The Major said that the Harriers were ""utterly, utterly useless". This is due to the fact that British Harriers rely on rockets and not guns (for the simple reason; they don't have a cannon..)
Because of this, the MoD was forced to equip all 232 Typhoons with the 27mm cannon.

So China will get 50 bajillion J-10s and Q-5s for Quinling?
Exellent, everything is falling into place.
Edit: Also, Eddie raises an interesting point. Current harriers
don't have guns. I take it the version on proving grounds with guns is still very much WIP and they will be removed for the full release.

To make up for not having cannons on the Harrier they should get 2 PAVEWAY III's

Meh, to make up for having no ATA or ATS missiles, rockets or radar and an extremely limited ammount of ordinance the Q-5 Fantan should come in 5s.

Sorry, to correct what I said earlier, the Harriers DO have cannons, it's just the MoD refuse to train pilots how to fire it, train in using it or buy ammunition for it.
God Bless the twats at the MoD.
BTW, will the Typhoon be Tranche 1 T1, (twin-seater, primarily used in the OCU, OEU, and ADR) or the Tranche 2 F2, (single-seater version, serving with 11 Squadron RAF in the air-to-ground role)?
