If it's secret then don't put out TWO press releases...

What was adjudged to be unique for this test, at least in Typhoon terms, was that BAE's IPA5 detected the target and assigned it via MIDS to CASA's IPA4 which shot the Airfix (I mean INTA) target drone whilst remaining 'nose cold'.

Not new to some people, but astounding if you're a Typhoon (trials aircraft).
