Durante el ejercicio "Typhoon Meet" celebrado en Sevilla en marzo de 2008, Eurofighters británicos, alemanes, italianos y españoles se enfrentaron a aviones de combate F/A-18 Hornet y Mirage F1 del Ejército del Aire español, F-16 de la Fuerza Aérea Portuguesa y AV-8B Harrier II de la Armada española en un simulacro de combate aéreo. Se afirma que los Eurofighter ganaron todos los combates (incluso en inferioridad numérica de 8 contra 27) sin sufrir pérdidas

A principios del 2010, la página web oficial del Eurofighter hizo público que durante los ejercicios de entrenamiento en combate aéreo disimilar (DACT) llevados a cabo por la OTAN en las Islas Canarias en 2009, dos Eurofighter españoles habían conseguido "derribar" en combate aéreo simulado a siete de los ocho F-15 estadounidenses que actuaban como agresores. El primero de los cazas españoles consiguió abatir a cuatro F-15, mientras que el segundo abatió a tres más. Oficiales del Ejército del Aire español señalaron que durante aquellas maniobras los pilotos españoles llevaron los Eurofighter al límite de su capacidad

«Lo que la gente no sabe sobre el Typhoon es lo bueno que es a gran altitud. Entre 40.000 y 55.000 pies, nada puede tocarlo excepto un F-22 - eso es lo que hace que sea tan fuerte en defensa aérea.»
Air Chief Marshal Sir Glenn Torpy, Jefe de Estado Mayor de la Royal Air Force, 12 de febrero de 2009 en Aero India, Bangalore

El 20 de julio de 2004, el general John P. Jumper, Jefe de Estado Mayor de la Fuerza Aérea de Estados Unidos, probó un Eurofigther del primer escuadrón operacional de la Luftwaffe convirtiéndose así en la primera persona en haber volado en el Typhoon y en el Raptor. Ese mismo día declaró:
«He pilotado todos los reactores de la fuerza aérea [estadounidense]. Ninguno es tan bueno como el Eurofighter.»

En junio de 2005, el semanal escocés Scotland On Sunday informó de que el año anterior un Eurofighter T1 de entrenamiento había tenido un encuentro casual con dos cazabombarderos F-15E de la Fuerza Aérea estadounidense sobre el Distrito de los Lagos, en el norte de Inglaterra. El encuentro se convirtió en un combate simulado en el que el Eurofighter consiguió evitar a sus perseguidores y maniobrar hasta colocarse en posición de tiro. El éxito de esta aeronave fue una sorpresa tanto para los estadounidenses como para los británicos

What a close encounter: Russian Su-27 and British Typhoon.
On Jun. 17, Royal Air Force Typhoons were scrambled to intercept multiple Russian aircraft as part of NATO’s Baltics Air Policing mission.

According to the information released by the RAF, the Typhoon aircraft, from 3 (Fighter) Squadron, were launched !after four separate groups of aircraft were detected by NATO air defences in international airspace near to the Baltic States.”

The “zombies” (how unidentified aircraft are dubbed in fighter pilots jargon), turned out to be a Tupolev Tu-22M “Backfire” bomber, four Sukhoi Su-27 ‘Flanker’ fighters, one Beriev A50 ‘Mainstay’ early warning aircraft and an Antonov An-26 ‘Curl’ transport aircraft “who appeared to be carrying out a variety of routine training,” even though the Flankers appear to be armed to the teeth, with 4x R-27 medium range and 2x R-73 short range air-to-air missiles

As usual, the Russian aircraft were shadowed and escorted on their way.

UPDATE 1-Eurofighter Typhoon jet to get new 1 bln euro radar

Nov 19 (Reuters) - Britain, Germany, Italy and Spain have through their Eurofighter project signed a 1 billion euro ($1.3 billion) contract to provide their jointly backed Typhoon jet with a new sort of radar, in an effort to secure new orders.

The fighter is produced by Eurofighter partner companies BAE Systems, Airbus and Finmeccanica, and BAE said it signed a contract worth 365 million pounds ($572 million) to integrate the new radar onto the jets.

Under the deal signed in Edinburgh, Scotland, on Wednesday the Typhoon jet will in future be available with the "Captor E-Scan radar".

The four countries, which had already funded the initial development of the advanced radar, believe that the new radar will help the fighter jet secure new orders from other countries.

"This will give Eurofighter Typhoon one of the most advanced radar systems in the world providing a wider field of regard than any other combat aircraft. Other benefits include increased detection and tracking ranges, advanced air-to-surface capability and enhanced electronic protection measures," BAE said in a statement.

Eurofighter lost out on a $20 billion deal to sell 126 jets to India in 2012. While Saudi Arabia and Oman have ordered Typhoons, Eurofighter suffered a major blow last year when United Arab Emirates quit talks over a possible 6 billion pound order.

Royal Bank of Canada analysts said a new radar for Typhoon would "close a performance gap against most other western-made fighter jets".

Eurofighter's chief executive Alberto Gutierrez said the addition of E-Scan to the jets represented a "pivotal moment" for the project, providing a weapons system which is "unmatched".

"This milestone confirms the commitment of the four nations to provide the Eurofighter Typhoon with the best capabilities to seize current and emerging opportunities in the export market," the Eurofighter Typhoon statement said.

E-scan radar has an extended range, faster tracking and multiple targeting. It has been developed by the Euroradar group, on which Selex, the defence electronics unit of Italy's Finmeccanica, is a major contractor.

BAE said trials of the jet with the new radar had already started.

"From the outset, the aircraft was built with capability enhancement in mind and this step is proof that we are developing Typhoon to keep it relevant for today and for the future," BAE Systems managing director of combat air Martin Taylor said in a statement.

Operam assim porque os R-77 guiado por radar ativo não são compatíveis com os sistemas originais do Su-27.
Tenho dúvidas sobre a efetividade desses caças em combate BVR equipados com mísseis antigos guiados por radar semi-ativo (ou outros, por exemplo equipados com AIM-7 Sparrow ou Super 530) contra caças mais modernos e equipados com mísseis guiados por radar ativo.

Não notei a distância percorrida. O artigo menciona que foram interceptados no Báltico perto do espaço aéreo dos países bálticos. Tudo muito próximo da fronteira russa.
Que o Su-27 possui uma capacidade de combustível interno estúpida, isso é conhecido por todos. Por isso ele é bem grande. Embora nem todas as missões requeiram 100% do combustível.
