The Aircraft 

The Eurofighter Typhoon is a twin-engine, canard-delta wing, multirole fighter, which is manufactured by a consortium of Airbus, BAE Systems and Leonardo.

A true swing-role combat aircraft

The aircraft delivers an enviable level of flexibility and efficiency, while possessing both adequate weapon availability and sufficient processing power to simultaneously support missile in-flight updates and bomb in-flight targeting. It is a true swing-role combat aircraft.

Combining a proven, agile airframe built from stealth materials with the latest sensors, control and weapons systems delivers optimum combat capability – both beyond visual range and in close combat.

The performance specifications of the Eurofighter Typhoon make it a benchmarking fighter aircraft, in several roles. Extremely powerful, efficient engines, paired with a low gross weight give it an extraordinary thrust-to-weight ratio. The result is an aircraft that regularly outclasses competitors when it comes to performance evaluations.
