Now THAT video is the ultimate ripostet to the "typhoon can't replace Tornado" folk! Four Paveway LGB/PGM, 2 ASRAAM, 2 underwing tanks, a 27mm cannon and a targeting pod, with space left for another 4 BVR AAM...

How many Jaguars would have it taken to replicate that capability? And still lack radar and air to air capability (and thrust!).

An FGR4, looks like the RAF have at long last finally replaced the Phantom FGR2, and without the whining in the back...
