The Eurofighter is a single-seat, twin-engine, agile combat aircraft which will be used in the air-to-air, air-to-ground and tactical reconnaissance roles.
Developed by Europes leading aerospace companies, Eurofighter Typhoon is now in service with the Air Forces of Germany, Spain, Italy and the United Kingdom and will fulfil Air Force requirements well into the 21st Century. Aircraft production is ongoing and with 638 aircraft under contract to the four Partner Nations and Austria, as the first export customer.
The design of Eurofighter Typhoon is optimised for air dominance performance with high instantaneous and sustained turn rates, and specific excess power. Special emphasis has been placed on low wing loading, high thrust to weight ratio, excellent all round vision and carefree handling.
Performance:
------------
Eurofighter Typhoon has a foreplane/delta wing configuration that is aerodynamically unstable in the subsonic range. The "delta canard" design shape of the aircraft is driven by a need for:
Subsonic/supersonic instantaneous and sustained turn rate performance
Agility
Lift and STOL (Short take-off and landing)
Exceptional acceleration
Reduced drag
Combining this with a low wing loading, high thrust-to-weight ratio, excellent all-round vision and carefree handling results in a truly exceptional aircraft.
Stealth technology is incorporated in the basic design. Features include low frontal Radar Cross Section (RCS), passive sensors and supercruise capability.
The airframe is constructed mainly from Carbon Fibre Composites (CFCs), lightweight alloys, titanium and Glass Reinforced Plastics (GRP).

Engine:
Eurofighter Typhoon is equipped with twin EJ200 engines to increase safety in peacetime and redundancy in war. The high reliability and subsequent availability ensure operational costs are reduced.
The Eurojet EJ200 engine is Europes latest high performance, advanced technology military turbofan designed to fulfil the demanding requirements for the next generation of combat aircraft.
The EJ200 engines features include:
Simple robust construction
Full modularity with good access
Minimal support equipment
Long life components with low component count
Arming:
Gun: 1x 27 mm Mauser BK-27 cannon with 150 rounds
13 weapons hardpoints[150]
Air-to-Air missiles: AIM-9 Sidewinder, AIM-132 ASRAAM, AIM-120 AMRAAM, IRIS-T and in the future MBDA Meteor
Air-to-Ground missiles: AGM-84 Harpoon, AGM-88 HARM, ALARM, Storm Shadow (AKA "Scalp EG"), Brimstone, Taurus KEPD 350, Penguin and in the future AGM Armiger
Bombs: Paveway 2, Paveway 3, Enhanced Paveway, JDAM, HOPE/HOSBO
Laser designator, e.g. LITENING pod
