Take a tour of an RAF Typhoon fighter jet policing NATO's skies

RAF personnel and Typhoon fighter jets are currently deployed to Romania to help NATO police its eastern flank.

Op Biloxi is the continuous air policing mission above the Black Sea region shared between NATO allies but this iteration has seen twice as many sorties than any previous one.

We went to Romania to take a tour around the fighter jet patrolling NATO's skies.

The Royal Air Force really do a fantastic job with the limited resources they are given - hopefully the British defence budget will increase with a new PM coming into power and definitely considering the state of the world at the moment.

Always good to have Ulstermen on side. Always the first ready to go.

Heard these bad boys break the sound barrier over my house maybe 5 to 7 year ago, won't forget that but massive respect to those who serve!

[harrywright]

definitely some mistakes with this, first off the German military claim Mach 2.25+ not Mach 1.8 and the RAF typhoons don't use AMRAAM as its primary bvr missile as it uses the Meteor.

Typhoon is a outstanding aircraft!

It says that it carries the AIM-120, do they not use the Meteors any more? And if not, why not?

[tophodonthetrowel]

We need more troops were are all the troops at?

[rokuth]

Have the FGR4 been cleared to carry Meteor BVR missiles? If I understand correctly, they can also carry ASRAAM missiles together with the AMRAAMs for CAP missions.

a plane that needs attitude control!?!?!? 0:44

[picklewiickle.]

1.8 ok if you say so. more likely much faster

[David-tmyj]

SENGO's talking s**t, the 'fore planes' are called canards. All drop tanks are supersonic (you drop them below supersonic speed unless you don't like wings on your aircraft), Pylons are called 'hard points', Flare dispensers are fitted as standard on the two most outward hard points on the wings. Chaff dispensers are also built into the wing.
