Description: The multirole fighter is flown by nations across Europe and the Middle East.

The Eurofighter Typhoon is a twin-engine, canard-delta wing, multirole fighter aircraft. It was designed and manufactured by Eurofighter GmbH, a consortium comprising Airbus, BAE Systems, and Leonardo. Development for this aircraft began in the 1980s. The first production aircraft was delivered in 2003. Operators of the Eurofighter Typhoon include the United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, Spain, Austria, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kuwait, and Qatar.
The Typhoon incorporates a relaxed stability design, supported by a digital fly-by-wire control system. Its two Eurojet EJ200 turbofan engines provide thrust that enables supersonic flight without afterburners. The aircraft integrates advanced avionics, including the Captor-E active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar in newer variants, which provides target detection and tracking.
The Eurofighter Typhoon is equipped with a 27mm Mauser BK-27 cannon. It has 13 hardpoints for carrying air-to-air missiles, such as ASRAAM, AMRAAM, and Meteor, and air-to-ground ordnance, including Paveway IV, Storm Shadow, and Brimstone missiles. Its roles encompass air policing, defensive counter-air, offensive counter-air, and precision strike missions.
