According to Eurofighter GmbH CEO, Aloysius Rauen, Eurofighter Typhoon is set to continue delivering value for decades to come.
“Already the air forces of Germany, Italy Spain and the UK have a formidable air-to-air fighter in Eurofighter Typhoon and as we now have moved towards full swing-role capability we will see Eurofighter Typhoon distance itself from the competition on a number of levels.
