History
Serving as the backbone of the contemporary Royal Air Force, the Typhoon has undergone continuous enhancements throughout its operational life, making it far more advanced than when it first arrived at RAF Coningsby in 2006. Now a common sight in the skies over Britain, the Eurofighter Typhoon stands as the RAF's present-day airspace guardian. While it was initially introduced in 2006 as a dedicated air superiority fighter, this fourth-generation combat aircraft has demonstrated capabilities far beyond that role.
Now recognised as the world's most sophisticated swing-role combat aircraft, the Typhoon has evolved into a genuine multi-role platform and is arguably among the most efficient combat aircraft in service today. It is equally proficient in conducting reconnaissance and precision strike missions as it is in intercepting the latest Russian aircraft entering British airspace.
To enhance the enjoyment Airfix can offer to many, these Starter Sets are ideal for any novice eager to hone their modelling skills. This exceptional model not only provides a more accessible building experience but also includes everything necessary to complete your first aircraft model.
