The Air-to-Air role isn't fully complete yet, the Typhoon might be qualified as an interceptor and a short-medium range dogfighter, but it doesn't yet have a front-line BVR capability. According to the RAF, that (Meteor BVRAAM) is due to be in service by 2016.

For anybody interested, scroll all the way to near the bottom of this page for weapons: Eurofighter Typhoon | The world's most advanced fighter aircraft

Back to the ground capability, how long will it take to get this far with Storm Shadow and Brimstone?
