Lovely idea,... 'ceptin how as Typhoon was never designed to land on no carrier.... so it would have to be adapted... which is another way of saying redesigned... which would take 10 years and involve a whole load of expensive imponderables....

Then you'd have to fit CATOBAR to the carriers... more delays... more money

Total bill?... quick guess...

£9 billion.... kerrching!
