Taxiing back to the flight-line after its five-minute flying display, is Eurofighter 2000 DA 1 9829/JP001. A low cloud base during the first few days of ILA ’96 and the restriction of ‘no aerobatics ’ imposed by the show organisers limited the Eurofighter’s display routine to tight turns and aileron rolls.

Eurofighter 2000 поднялся в небо. 27 марта 1994г.: из-за проблем с отработкой электро-дистанционной системы управления первый полет состоялся на два года позже запланированного срока. Первый полет одноместный прототип DA-1 истребителя Eurofighter 2000 выполнил в германском Манчинге, самолет с германской маркировкой пилотировал германский летчик-испытатель. Второй самолет и первый британский прототип выполнил первый полет 6 апреля. Программа EF2000 являлась важнейшей европейской военной программой - в ней принимали участие Великобритания, Германия, Италия и Испания.

Eurofighter DA 1 (98 29), построенный для Люфтваффе, достиг максимальной скорости полета М=1,87. На самолете были установлены два двигателя RB.199. Он использовался для выполнения летных испытаний на устойчивость и управляемость, а также для испытаний двигателей и оценки прочности конструкции.

The first Eurofighter to fly, DA1/98+29, seen here during a demonstration at Farnborough 2000, had completed 271.8 flying hours in 332 flights as of April 7, 2002, a relatively low number eight years after its first flight. This is accounted for by two fairly lengthy periods during which it was laid up whilst various upgrades were incorporated on the aircraft, the first involving a flight control software update, followed later by installation of EJ200 engines and an avionics upgrade.

Eurofighter Typhoon является типичным представителем нового поколения европейских истребителей, отличающихся простотой обслуживания и высокими характеристиками. Для Люфтваффе самолет Eurofighter стал качественным скачком по сравнению со старыми истребителями F-4F Phantom, на замену которым он пришел. Typhoon уже показал свою высокую эффективность.

On May 25, 2011 BAE Systems announced that it had delivered the 100th Typhoon produced at its assembly facility at Warton, Lancashire. The aircraft, Typhoon FGR4 ZK315 (BS072), is a Tranche 2 Block 8 example and first flew in primer on February 24. It will be delivered RAF Coningsby, Lincolnshire, prior to being issued to a squadron. In addition to the aircraft for the RAF, Warton has also assembled the aircraft for the Royal Saudi Air Force. Over 260 Typhoons have been delivered from the four assembly lines in Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK, to six customers.

The Typhoon is armed with two ASRAAM missiles carried on stations 0 and 12, and four Paveway IV precision-guided munitions, one each carried on stations 1, 3, 9 and 11. The reality of Typhoon still having just one true precision-guided air-to-ground munition to call upon, Paveway IV, after so many years of development must surely be considered a poor reflection of this pan-European defence programme.

Test pilot for BAE Systems, Nat Makepeace, completed the maiden flight of the first Tranche 3 Eurofighter Typhoon from Warton, Lancashire, on December 2, 2013. The aircraft (ZK355, b/n BS116) was assembled to accommodate the new systems to be introduced on the version - including a new active electronically-scanned array radar and conformal fuel tanks - although most have not been installed in the airframe. The RAF will receive 40 Tranche 3A aircraft, while a further 72 will be built for Germany, Italy and Spain. Meanwhile, on December 4 the Luftwaffe received the 400th Typhoon (31+06, bln GS082) during a ceremony at EADS Cassidian's Military Air Systems Centre in Manching, Germany.

Seen here operating at low-level in the Scottish borders on July 31, 2007 is Typhoon F.2 ZJ930 'AA' of 17 (Reserve) Squadron, the Typhoon Operational Evaluation Unit. The aircraft was delivered to the unit at RAF Coningsby, Lincolnshire, on June 22 and is the first of the type to Block 5, Tranche 2, standard to enter service. Externally, this latest standard of Typhoon can be identified by the PIRATE (Passive Infra-Red Airborne Tracking Equipment) sensor mounted on the port side of the fuselage, just forward of the canopy. PIRATE enables multiple target acquisition and identification using both forward looking infra-red (FLIR) and infra-red search and track (IRST) sensors, providing information to the pilot’s helmet-mounted display. Up to 200 targets can be tracked simultaneously and although the maximum detection range has not been revealed, it has been suggested that it may be up to 80nm. PIRATE will be fitted to all Block 5 aircraft delivered to the partner nations in the Typhoon programme, apart from Germany.

The Typhoon was painted to mark No.6 Squadron’s formation in January 1914; a deployment to Nellis AFB in Nevada for Red Flag 14-1 meant celebrations had to be postponed until April 2014. The Typhoon was painted by the Serco-run paintshop at RAF Leuchars and it was rolled out from there on April 8. A centenary parade was held three days later, attended by two of the squadron's former Hurricane pilots.

These two FGR4s are carrying Paveway II bombs, while visible on the centreline station of the aircraft peeling away from the camera is a Litening III laser designator pod. This enables a Typhoon to self-designate its own LGBs and 'spike' targets for other aircraft. It is also useful for identifying targets and in Wg Cdr Parker's view has great potential as an NTISR asset.

Современные многоцелевые самолеты, такие как этот Typhoon FGR.Mk 4, вооруженный шестью бомбами с лазерным наведением (LGB) Paveway II, могут нести боевую нагрузку большую, чем тяжелые бомбардировщики Второй мировой войны с их многочисленным экипажем.

In years gone by all RAF Typhoons had squadron markings applied like this aircraft from XI Squadron based at RAF Coningsby. Today the majority of the RAF Typhoon fleet is void of any squadron insignia. This is reportedly due to the type's combat involvement in Operation Shader and the need for greater discretion faced with the ISIS threat. However, the adoption of the aircraft's serial number as a numerical tail code is perhaps more geared toward helping maintenance crews identify each jet. On one occasion a costly maintenance procedure was performed on the wrong jet.

RAF Eurofighter Typhoon F.2 ZJ937 (BS028), the 46th UK aircraft, made its first flight on February 23, 2007 and is seen here about to make its second production test flight on March 6. What is unusual is that the aircraft, although largely in primer, has a fully painted grey tailfin with 29 Squadron badge and code 'BG', indicating that it has been fitted with the fin from ZJ808. The latter was at Warton last year for modification and has obviously acquired a new fin, whilst the old one went to Samlesbury for strengthening as part of an ongoing modification programme. Additionally, the port side of the front fuselage, also manufactured at Samlesbury, still carries the production identification markings, normally removed before first flight, including a red/white/blue roundel and 'Royal Air Force' titles.

The aftermath of the 9/11 terrorist attacks means that fighter pilots standing QRA could well have to intercept an airliner and indeed this has happened on many occasions in several countries since 2001, though thankfully this has usually been due to air traffic control temporarily losing contact with the passenger aircraft.

Two Eurofighter Typhoons were flown during the show - an aircraft from 29 (Reserve) Squadron, Coningsby, Lincolnshire and one from Ala 11 at Moron AFB, Seville, Spain. It was the first time a Spanish Air Force Typhoon has been displayed in the UK and the fact that two aircraft from the 14 on strength of Ala 11 were deployed is indicative of its increasing maturity in service. Until recently, pressures on the limited numbers of aircraft in service to train aircrew have prohibited their attendance at airshows.

Austrian Air Force Eurofighter Typhoon 7L-WG (AS07/GS024, ex 30+37) prepares to depart from Manching, Germany, on April 29, 2008 on its delivery flight to Zeltweg, Austria. The aircraft is the seventh of the type to be delivered to Austria, which plans to transfer responsibility for the quick reaction alert (QRA) role to the Typhoons of 1 Staffel at Zeltweg on June 30. They will replace the leased Swiss F-5Es currently undertaking QRA duties as a stop gap and the latter will be returned to the Swiss Air Force once the Typhoon has fully taken over the role.
