| abstract | - De Eurofighter Typhoon (Eurofighter EFA 2000) is een gevechtsvliegtuig ontworpen en gebouwd door een Europees consortium bestaande uit de industrieën:
* EUROJET
* NETMA
* Alenia Aeronautica
* BAE Systems
* European Aeronautic Defence and Space Company (EADS) De ontwikkeling van het oorspronkelijke Eurofighter 2000-project vond in eerste instantie plaats met steun van de regeringen van het Verenigd Koninkrijk, Duitsland, Italië en Frankrijk maar in 1985 trok Frankrijk zich uit het project terug vanwege de hoge kosten en ontwikkelde het binnen eigen grenzen de inmiddels operationele Dassault Rafale. De bedoeling is dat er totaal 630 Typhoons worden gebouwd met een eventuele optie op 90 stuks extra. De toestellen worden geleverd aan Verenigd Koninkrijk (232 stuks), Duitsland (180), Italië (121), Spanje (87), Oostenrijk (18) en Saoedi-Arabië (72); een Griekse order voor 60 stuks ging niet door. Andere landen die interesse hebben getoond voor de Eurofighter Typhoon zijn Denemarken, India, Noorwegen, Pakistan en Roemenië. Ook Nederland overwoog in 2001 de aanschaf van de Typhoon als vervanger voor de General Dynamics F-16 maar nam toch maar deel aan de ontwikkeling van de Amerikaanse Joint Strike Fighter (JSF). In mei 2007 waren er al 125 operationele Typhoons, verdeeld over vijf landen. [bewerk] Geschiedenis De eerste vlucht van het prototype Eurofighter EF 2000 vond plaats in maart 1994 boven het Duitse Beieren. In mei 2007 maakte het vijfde testtoestel een eerste vlucht met de nieuwe Captor Active Electronically Scanning Array Radar (CAESAR). In juli 2007 werd de eerste van de 18 Oostenrijkse Typhoons, de AS001 op Hallbergmoos operationeel. De AS002 t/m -006 staan gereed op de eindproductielijn.

The Typhoon was designed by a consortium of three companies, EADS, Alenia Aeronautica and BAE Systems, working through a holding company, Eurofighter GmbH, which was formed in 1986. The project is managed by the NATO Eurofighter and Tornado Management Agency, which acts as the prime customer. Eurofighter Typhoon is being produced serially by the EADS, Alenia Aeronautica, and BAE Systems consortium. The aircraft is being procured under separate contracts, named tranches, each for aircraft with generally improved capabilities. The Typhoon has entered service with the Austrian Air Force, the Italian Air Force, the German Air Force, the British Royal Air Force, the Spanish Air Force, and the Royal Saudi Air Force.

It was based on the British Aerospace EAP. At first it was called European Fighter Aircraft (EFA), later it was renamed to Eurofighter 2000 and finally to Eurofighter Typhoon. In Austria and Germany it is often called Eurofighter and not Typhoon or Eurofighter Typhoon. Primarily, the Typhoon was designed to be an Air Superiority Fighter to counter newer, more advanced fighters, like the MiG-29 or the Su-27 of the Warsaw Pact, but with the end of the Cold War it modified into a multirole fighter. The aircraft was designed to offer superb performance in all key areas. Its unique delta canard design bestows next generation maneuverability for both the supersonic and subsonic regimes. To improve performance in WVR, the aircraft integrates the ASRAAM missile with the HMD as well as eyeball tracking to allow offbore missile shots. The aircraft relies on a large wing a comparatively low weight to further its maneuverability and high altitude performance. The powerful engines allow the aircraft to achieve a thrust to weight ratio of approximately 1.15 when fully loaded, enabling excellent acceleration, and the ability to supercruise at approximately Mach 1.5. The Typhoon, with its highly capable CAPTOR radar, combined with reduced RCS features, gains a sizable detection range advantage over essentially all non stealth aircraft. The typhoon also features the PIRATE passive sensing system, which combines features of an IRST and a forward looking infra red system, and allows it to detect aircraft from dozens of miles away without risking the possibility of compromising itself with its radar emissions. The Eurofighter typhoon can be considered the paragon of 4th generation jet fighter design philosophy. A very potent aircraft, it has nevertheless received much criticism, for its high cost, and the dubious logic of introducing a legacy generation fighter as a mainstay aircraft.
