You don't really need a extreme or high destabilizing effect. Once you hit a certain margin, the FBW cannot cope up and the plane is simply unflyable. Slightly should do it for most circumstances.How will supersonic BVR performance suffer by the way, with slight instability? Its better to be more stable in supersonic BVR in order to have a more stable flight and launching platform, than a plane that tends to be more "jiggly" at speed. Stability helps in high speed, not the other way around.I'm not too hot of the Typhoon's canard position. Putting it where it is, moves the weight to the canards and actuators away from the center of the plane to the nose. Putting more weight on the nose affects maneuverbility. Not only that, all that stuff can get in the way of the avionics, and it won't be as easy to position both the canard wake and the vortices aer they flow over the main wing. If you look at the jet in the front, there is not much seperation of the plane of the canards with the plane of the main wing, where as you see significant seperation of the canard plane and the main wing plane with the J-10, Lavi and Rafale. Putting the two canard and main planes close, means greater potential for the canard to interfere with the air flow to the main wing.
