In the meantime, updated Kfirs versus Typhoons. Ooh, that's a tough one...

it is - right up to the point where its 16 Kfirs vs 4 Typhoons, the Typhoons don't have a divert, and the Typhoons have to protect incoming cargo and passenger aircraft and ships that don't have SAM's.

how do four Typhoons cope with a co-ordinated action where SIGINT catches a deliberate sniff of a pair of Kfir and a tanker hanging around the approach route from ASI 500 miles north of MPA, another pair with a tanker are hanging around 100 miles SW of W Falkland, and then we see another pair, or even two pairs, bore in at 500kts on a direct heading from the NW?

how do four Typhoons cope with that our friends do it 4 days running?
