The Typhoon is an agile, single seat, multirole aircraft optimized for high altitude supersonic air combat but also capable of operating at much lower levels in the air-to-ground roles. It is built by a four-nation consortium comprised of companies from the UK, Germany, Italy, and Spain. The state-of-the art aircraft is set to be the RAF's major front-line type for many years to come, replacing the RAF's Tornado F3 fighters and Jaguar fighter-bombers in front-line service. One major advantage of the aircraft over current types is its ability to undertake 'swing role' missions. For these, Typhoon can be equipped to undertake both air-to-air and air-to-ground missions in a single sortie, switching between the two separate attack modes in Tornado GR4 for example. And with nine underwing weapon-mounting points, Typhoon can be equipped with 2 x Advanced Short-Range Air-to Air Missiles (AMRAAMs), 4x Advanced Medium-Range Air-to-Air Missiles_(AMRAAMs) whilst simultaneously carrying air-to-surface ordnance which could include Laser Guided Bombs (Paveway 2 and 3 or Enhanced Paveway), Brimstone anti-armour weapon, Storm Shadow cruise missiles and Air Launched Anti-Radiation Missiles (ALARMs), the aircraft packs a mighty punch. Ultimately, Meteor, a combination of rocket and air-breathing technology, will replace AMRAAM as Typhoon's primary long range air-to-air. In 2003 No 17 became the first RAF Squadron to receive the Eurofighter Typhoon. Initially based a Warton its responsibilities include the evaluation of the new aircraft and its integration into full squadron service. • Hi and welcome to another Heavy Metal Diecast Video. Today's example is another plastic model review from Easy Model. These are completed model's ready-made but instead of being diecast these are made completely from plastic. Today's example is in 1:72nd scale and it is the Eurofighter Typhoon F.Mk 2 from RAF's No.17 Squadron, in England. I personally think this model is nice, these plastic renditions are almost as good as their metal counterparts but at much cheaper prices. • I hope you enjoy this video, and it helps in your decision to whether you decide yourself to make the same purchase as me. Thanks again for taking the time to watch and have a great rest of your day. If you enjoyed the video, why not throw us a like or even subscribe ‪@heavymetaldiecast‬ • Use of any images or video in any of my reviews is used out of pure respect in regard to units and/or actual people. I wish to acknowledge all those that have served past and present with their respective nations armed forces with some making the ultimate sacrifice. Political ideals aside, it takes great courage and selflessness to answer your countries call. • Cheers • #diecast #corgi #royalairforce #eurofightertyphoon #model #review #plastic • Slideshow music by : TeknoAXE
