hemspilot Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Looks like spin off a Ferris scheme. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gary1701 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Hi, I had a look around the net and this appears to originate from a blog back in 2014. I've never seen or heard of a EF-2000 in that scheme, so I'm guessing it's a photoshop job. There is a possibility that some early RAF examples may end up in a aggressor type scheme in the future, but nothing yet. Gary Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alternative 4 Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 After 5 minutes of googling Eurofighter schemes I call photoshop mostly because I can't imagine the radome being painted like that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChernayaAkula Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Isn't there a German Typhoon in some anniversary scheme like that? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe, but you can tell by the markings near the intake that this is a RAF aircraft. Every nation has slightly different details in this area. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gary1701 Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Hi again, That's the article I found when looking around the web. I was familiar with some of the article as the company that planned to base Su-27/30's out of Iceland was connected to a professional photographer who I know and around the time of the article he was quite keen on photographing them. I didn't for one moment think it would come to anything and obviously it never did. It still looks like a photoshop job on those two pics, an impression of what a adversary scheme could look like on a EF-2000. I doubt such a scheme on any of the airframes flying with the Eurofighter nations would have remained on the QT from that far back, even if applied for a short time. They wouldn't have painted the radome anyway. Gary Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BN7149 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 I wish somebody would paint a Typhoon like that. Maybe Germany could bring back a Norm 81 type scheme. I love the lines of the Typhoon, but operational jets are all just... So. Damn. Boring. 😴 -Ryan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bushande Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 (edited) Yeah well, they are just what they are, grey in grey. You could always do one of the many tiger schemes the Luftwaffe and the Italian and Spanish AF are doing for the annual Nato Tiger Meet exercises however. I did the original design for 2018s Ghost Tiger of FW-74, the Bavarian Tigers. Might be a little less "boring" but could also be way too ..... uhm ... flamboyant for some hihi. I did submit a proposition for next year's Tiger-Typhoon which you might kinda like, however they still haven't picked any definitve design yet as far as I know. I'm curious what it's going to be for next year. Edited January 6, 2020 by bushande Quote Link to post Share on other sites
