The Typhoon - RAF's Top 10 Warplanes | Forces TV 

The best aircraft are not the best without the best pilots. The RAF has a record of delivering some of the worlds best pilots.

the raf typhoon is an awsome jet and still one of the best jet fighters 😊😊

One of the best ASFs in the world by far. It was at one point considered by the Republic of Singapore to be purchased as their new fighter aircraft to replace their retired A4SU Super Skyhawks, however the lack of an Air-to-Ground capability back then was a major drawback and resulted instead with the RSAF purchasing American F-15 Strike Eagles instead. Good to see that the ground attack capability has been added, particularly so now that the RAF Tornados are either all retired or close to retiring from service. Brimstone and Meteor look very good too, and paired with the Typhoon this is easily a plane that can hold the mantle of "Guardian Of The Sky" for the RAF and the UK.

Was at Coningsby few days ago watching them take of and land amazing aircraft

How did the EE Lightning not get into the top ten?

Such a pretty aircraft

Great presentation.

Glad to see 1f fighter Sqn on the tail of the typhoon taking over from the harrier that I was on to 98 at wittering. I wish I worked on the typhoon it looks boss

So stunning

Beautiful!

The beautiful looking jet 😍😍😍

The art of High - Flying 🛫... beautiful structure and skill.Fantastic information 🤔Great respect 🕊️ Bows to pilots and skills!

Always loved the EF Typhoon. I'm sure I'll grow to love the Lightning and Tempest but that Typhoon! Mm mm.

My Favorite jet!!! Its beautiful!!! The sound she makes is GODLY!!!!!🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🔥🌊🌊

Dear Daddy...May we have some too?...Luv always, your eldest son, RCAF.

Great fighter

Bagus & Mantaaap...

God bless England !!!

Best multi roll on the planet

Would be my dream to fly one of these one day...please.

The noise if this jet is scary, shakes your ribcage,

Hopefully Finland (my country) would chose Typhoon to replace our aging F18s. I think Typhoon is good mix of performance, price and "future proof" choice. Not as expensive as F-35 but on other hand not as aging plane as for example Super Hornet. And overall from how the plane looks and how agile it is, its absolutely my favorite :D

I am sure the technology built into the F 35 and its variants is top of line today and maybe for a few years but as time goes on time will tell if opponents of the West will learn to decipher stealth and make this plane average or not. When the F 117 Nighthawk was considered invisible and state of the art until it got shot down in 1999 over Yugoslavia by a ground missile. Just like Beyond Visual Range weapons which in theory are stand off weapons fire and forget and paint another kill on your plane go for a barbecue and tell stories many modern fighters have very effective defense against missiles to the point that you better make them count when firing or you might become a target as planes close distance quickly. Having grown up in England in a RAF household and other countries where my father was an Air Traffic Controller until the 80's I learned that you never how good your toys are until you actually use them in a real fight and only then can you mark your scorecard. I worked in the Canadian arctic for about 10 years during the cold war at many DEWLINE Radar Sites which were designed to detect bombers and cruise missiles and almost all of our military bosses were ex USAF fighter pilots who were Colonels. Our last boss flew F 4's, F 106's and F 15's before getting a desk job and then transferring to NORAD. The biggest issue I see with the F 35 is that it is not a tested platform in the sense of longterm cost effectiveness, reliability and mission capability. As far as Typhoon goes the only thing I wish is that they could of made it carrier capable like the French did with the Rafale. I hope the F 35 turns out to be a great plane for the tax payer and military because militaries tend to relegate equipment from the front line to lower tier roles when they underperform so they don't have to admit failure.

How many kills does it have if any?

Britain should have finished development into a naval version to meet the needs of the RN

Anyone else see the 100 Spitfires today??

do we not like the GR4 anymore ?

Incredibly expensive too...

I don't know much about airplanes but if the Spitfire ain't number one I'm out.

It carries lil attack helicopter missiles, interesting. I hear the brimstones are better than hellfire, but on a multi-role fighter is strange to me. I guess drones fire hellfires, but a Gen. 4 frontline fighter, hmm.

Pinging from satellite?

First 👀

They have to ping on you to know your there,rather than listen to yours.

Where's the others 9 !!!

Ironaccaly it is also known as the 'euro'fighter

It annoys me the buccaneer isn't on this list.

The typhoon can fly better than the f35

Can anyone explane - why brits dont use strategic bombers any more?

Twin stick looks better

100th like

Not true- it's f-35 now right? (most advanced)

Most advanced fighter jet on the planet? Lockheed-Martin F-35 Lightning II?

Well the typhoon is the best fighter ever built and if you disagree reply to me

Love the Typhoons sexy front cannards ,it would be great to have them replace the ageing Hawks of the Red Arrows display team.Then they would definitely be a match for the American Blue Angels F18 Super Hornets.

the narrator said its multi-role but I beg to differ

Can you do a Rafale F3R Top 10 ? Because so far, the Typhoon never proven anything in duel contests nor war situation. While Rafale did win F22 Raptor in duel contest and doing war missions since 10 years in Africa / Middle-east.

Comparing it’s take off and landing distance with a Jumbo Jet - laughable.

If the US had watched from 3.40 to 4.21, they would have realised why stealth is smoke and mirrors for a fighter. Sure, for a bomber or reconnaissance aircraft, it's great. They don't need to detect targets so they can turn their radar off. A fighter which uses radar (like the F22) gives its position away as soon as it searches for a target, and radar can be jammed. The Typhoon can turn its radar off and hunt with PIRATE, which is undetectable and unjammable. Given that Typhoon also has the Meteor missile, far superior to the AMRAAM, I think the F22 has been relegated to the 2nd best air superiority fighter. Hopefully Typhoon and F22 fighters will never go head to head in real combat (though with the idiot in the White House, nothing's impossible), but I know which plane I'd rather be in. And it's not the F22.

yet this plane ain't ever seen combat and it won't that job will go to the F-35B

Sams will shoot them down long before they engage enemy aircraft typhoon is already obsolete

I think the Rafale is better

The Typhoon is not the best Jet in the World! The Gripen is lot better as the Rafale Too, if not even more better than the Gripen! When compared to the Typhoon! The Typhoon should cost lot less or way less for sure as what you get for your money! The Price tack of Each Jet Fighter, the Typhoon and Rafale should be the other way around, that how much plane you get with that money, that Rafale should be more expensive (per plane) than the Typhoon! But which one is more expensive, the Tranche 3 Typhoon costing 90 million pounds (per plane) Or the Rafale C with or without the B, costing 80 million US' Dollars / Euros ( per plane), or even more (with all the weapons)! French weapons, missiles at least are expensive, if not very expensive, as some one has said!?!? And know this! The French Rafale is 5 TH GEN!, yes!, 5 TH GEN Fighter (at its' best 5,5 / 5.5 TH GEN), where the Typhoon might get!?, might get close to 5 TH GEN, or The 5 TH GEN! Gripen E/F is The 5 TH GEN or close to it, IF, if not OVER, over THE 5 TH GEN! But! Gripen IS NOT A REAL, is not a real = TRUE, true 5 TH GEN FIGHTER, 5 th gen Fighter, as The RAFALE, the Rafale is!

The French Rafale is better
