To all, your may not believe me now but when conceived in 1986 it is to be a interceptor for against the MiGs and nothing else.
Typhoon is just too expensive after rising cost because of 10 years of delay. Also many are looking as it may not surive as when the countries cut military spending, this EF is gonna be badly hit as it has been ranked as it most ex plane in the world
UK is saying now it is outdated
Oh ya, you say abt Austria. They only have F-5 T
OMG I don't believe how stupid you can be. We all know it was conceived in the 80s as a fighter, but that is in the past little boy. It is now a multirole aircraft so your rubbish about it being a pure fighter is irrelavant.
Austria has F-5E (not T you ignoramus, T is a 2 seater only used by Singapore) bought from Switzerland. But they have already confirmed an order for Typhoons.
