Courtney,
On reflection you are probably correct. It is actually great to see a Gen 5 aircraft loosing off a GPS guided weapon 5 years prior to ISD and 35 years before it's OSD. I am led to believe that the 'stealthy as a breeze block' Eurofighter 2000 might even field PW4 next year a mere 14 years past the gate and with only 17 before the scrap heap beckons.
Have a good week end all, it's red wine o'clock!
