For the first time at the Dubai International Air Show a Eurofighter Typhoon aircraft took to the skies on day one of the five day long event. The show, which Eurofighter has a large presence at thanks to its large pavilion and full scale replica, kicked off yesterday with visits from the Royal Air Force’s Chief of Air Force Sir Stephen Dalton among others.
As the temperature soared, so did the aircraft in an impressive air display flown by RAF pilot Squadron Leader Scott “Scotty” Loughran. Outside the busy pavilion, a host of visitors queued up the stairs of the replica Typhoon in the forecourt to get a glimpse in the cockpit and to get a better view of Scotty performing his nimble routine above the crowds at the Airport Export Dubai.

The Eurofighter Typhoon is very much a Delta Wing Air combat frame and I say it is the Best bet for any Air Force of the World to purchase and induct it to their Air Force service. But looking at its price it is very much a steep High price for any typical Air Force whose budget can't afford so other Air force opted for a much low cost efficient and well effective Combat Air frame to meet their demands. But then again you can't ruled out the excellent quality of the Euro Fighter Typhoon and what it is built for It is in a word a Multi-Role Combat Jet that is capable to meet the todays threat and the future threat of any potential aggressor..
