Eurofighter Typhoon T3 on exercise at RAF Lossiemouth Morayshire Scotland UK
The Eurofighter Typhoon is in service with five nations: Great Britain, Germany, Italy, Spain and Austria. BAE Systems describe the Eurofighter as the world's most advanced multi role aircraft. The aircraft has also been ordered by Saudi Arabia, with the first aircraft already delivered. The aircraft has so far been provided in a basic form and most of the major systems including the CAPTOR radar and the Defence Aids Sub-System (DASS) are expected to be improved and updated over time. However BAE states that even these early aircraft will be much more capable than the Tornado F3 and that the development of the Typhoon will exceed the learning curve of pilots.
