Dubai Airshow Flying Display to Feature UK's Royal Air Force Typhoon

The Dubai Airshow is to offer an even more spectacular military aviation flying display this year. Daily from 15 to 19 November, visitors will be able to witness the first-ever appearance at the show of the Eurofighter Typhoon aircraft.

The Typhoon, an agile, multi-role aircraft, specially optimised for high-altitude, supersonic air combat, while retaining considerable ground-attack capabilities, will be flown by the UK's Royal Air Force (RAF).

The aircraft is built by a four-nation consortium comprising BAE Systems of the UK, Alenia Aeronautica of Italy, EADS Deutschland and EADS Spain.

Alison Weller, Director of show organiser F&E Aerospace, said, "The appearance of the Typhoon jet will confirm that Dubai Airshow will now really be a high-tech, state-of-the-art military aviation display, illustrating the cutting-edge nature of defence in the Middle East."
