Eurofighter Tyhoon FRG4 Returning at dusk to its home base at RAF Lossiemouth, Morayshire. SCO 9283.
The UK agreed to approve production of "Tranche 2" in December 2004, this tranche will see the RAF receive a further 89 aircraft, bringing its Typhoon inventory to 144. This followed protracted negotiations regarding the early introduction of ground attack capabilities of the aircraft and hence its swing-role capability. While this was always planned it was intended to come at a much later date.
