ZJ935 / DJ (cn 0115/BS026) Quick Reaction Alert Typhoon callsign '7CK36' turning off with a live warload of ASRAAM and AMRAAM missiles. The QRA pair had just conducted a interception overhead London with a Cobham Falcon simulating a rogue airliner, which was escorted to Stansted, the usual diversion for suspect aircraft. The second practise exercise resulted in the target aircraft being shot down.
