VKB ww2 throttle
Until their TECS throttle comes out, this is their only throttle, would it be worth getting for jets vs a T16000m throttle?

It isn't a great solution. You are honestly better off just getting a T16000m throttle or (if possible) saving up a bit and getting something like a Winwing or even the very high-end (and pretty pricey) Virpil throttle.

The VKB TECS is (by design) not really great for DCS level combat jets (especially ones with even somewhat modern control layouts). It is better to get even the T.16000m because at least then you will have a logical hat/switch/button layout.

Will the winwing throttle work with a VKB gladiator joystick?

Those are independent devices. You can combine all brands together.

Yes and winwing F18 throttle is a very good all-round throttle. The split throttle is excellent for ww2 planes, using one for RPM and one for Boost/MP. It also has all the buttons you'll need for ww2 and modern jets.
