Eurofighter news

Hi All

Two Eurofighter Typhoons are now in Singapore after a 13,000km trip,
the aircraft are to be evaluated by Singapore and are in
competition with the F15T and the Rafale.

The F15T and the Rafale have been flown already, the Typhoons
evaluation will be over the next two weeks, the price of the Typhoons
has been stated as between £32-£42 ($55-$70) million depending on
equipment level and quantity bought.

This price compares well with aircraft such as the F18's, Apaches,
and is half what it cost to _produce_ an F/A-22 (if you use only the
cheapest F/A-22 projected price).

It looks like the second tranche are cheaper than the first!, if so
is this a first?.


Why would you buy anything else ;-)

Good luck to them!


Cheers
