		The Typhoon is an agile, single seat, multi-role aircraft optimised for high altitude supersonic air combat but also capable of operating at much lower levels in the air-to-ground roles.
		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 flight, something not possible with a Tornado GR4 for example.
		Typhoon is the newest aircraft in service with the RAF and there are currently 3 squadrons, all of which are at RAF Coningsby in Lincolnshire:

		Armed Forces - RAF Aircraft Tornado F3 The Air Defence Variant (ADV) of the Tornado from which the F3 was developed flew for the first time in October 1979.
		The aircraft has a long-range, autonomous capability that enables operations to be conducted some 350 nm away from bases in bad weather, in an ECM environment and operating against multiple targets at high or low-level, which can be engaged at distances in excess of 20 nm.
		RAF Tornado F3s were sent to the Gulf in August 1990 and by the end of hostilities on the 28 February 1991, 18 x F3 aircraft had flown some 2,500 sorties during their deployment including 700 sorties during the period of hostilities.

		The initial designations for the RAF aircraft are T1 for the two seater trainer, and F2 for the single seater operational fighter.
		The Typhoon's combat performance, particularly compared to the upcoming F/A-22 Raptor and F-35 fighters under development in the United States and the Dassault Rafale developed in France, has been the subject of some speculation.

		Unlike cars which are similar to drive and have the same sort of equipment modern military aircraft require specialist training to operate them correctly, so, for each type of front line aircraft the RAF designates one squadron to fulfil the role of training aircrew who are converting to that type.
		A good example of this is 29 Squadron who were the second unit to fly the new Typhoon within the RAF.
		As the OCU on the Typhoon they re-formed at Warton airfield before moving to RAF Coningsby in Lincolnshire, where a batch of RAF pilots who were trained by BAe and 17 Squadron and newly qualified ground crews have set up the training course for the Typhoon.

		The show was closed by what must be the highlight, for the first time this year the RAF displayed the Typhoon F2 to the public.

		The wrong decal for the sqn badge has been added to the fin, it's the wrong way around!! I've photographed five of the nine/ten jets that have been delivered so far and it's the only one like it.
