Without wishing to condone the abuse in the post, perhaps you could explain, with proof, why the Typhoon is "clearly light years behind Raptor"? The crews (of Typhoon) that I have spoken to are extremely pleased with the capability of the first jets and these aren't yet at full capability.
Typhoon 90% of a Raptor at 50% of the price!!
