EUROFIGHTER TYPHOON twin-seater. As well as its classic role as a twin-seat training aircraft, in future
two seater Eurofighters will also be equipped for the Fighter-Bomber
role. The Eurofighter is the most up-to-date multi-role combat aircraft
in the world. No other next generation combat aircraft programme of can
claim to have received a greater volume of orders. The Eurofighter
Typhoon is extremely agile and manoeuvrable. It is specifically designed
to meet the Air Defence requirements of the partner nations and will
possess an outstanding air-to-surface capability. The Eurofighter is the
most advanced combat aircraft developed in Europe and is the product of
a joint programme between the German and Spanish EADS Company, BAE
Systems of Great Britain and Alenia Aeronautica of Italy. This, the most
modern combat aircraft of its class combines innovative and advanced
technology and boasts impressive versatility. Perfected for the air
superiority role in both long and short range combat, the Eurofighter
also has an extensive capability in the ground attack, reconnaissance
and maritime attackroles. Equipped with the latest generation guided
missiles, the Eurofighter has an outstanding weapons arsenal. Similar to
the F-15 Strike Eagle, a Weapons Systems Officer will assist the pilot
during his mission (in reality the EF has been designed to be full
combat ready in all roles as a single seater, exactly to avouid to have
another crew member like the F-15 or the Tornado) The second crew
member could be useful for the SEAD roles (Suppression of Enemy Air
Defence). This crew composition has already been successfully employed
within the Royal Air Force (in reality the RAF fighter bomber unit is
composed by sigle seaters). Since September 2003, most of the Royal Air
Force's Twin-Seater's have been concentrated at No. 29(R) Squadron, the
Operational Conversion Unit (OCU) at RAF Conningsby. The OCU is
responsible for the complete technical and tactical training of
Eurofighter Pilots within the Royal Air Force.
