Its a good thing that Saudi Arabia are getting these Typhoons, its the best choice & its the best multi role fighter money can buy, what other aircraft can carry two cruise missiles, two LGB's, two ALARM missiles, two ASRAAM's and four BVRAAM's (Meteor), and a 27mm cannon on a single mission? Yes thats six air to air missiles on a bombing mission. Thats a hell of a combination to have in a air force. And so what if its not "Stealthy"? Theres always going to be something to counter it, and why have a "Stealth" fighter like the F-35 that will be able to only carry two air to air missiles, two LGB's (Internally), and why have "Stealth" if you're going to add bombs & missiles externally? The F-35, and the F-22 is just something the yanks can brag about, but they don't brag about fitting "Stealthy Drop Tanks" getting into a situation with makes them having to drop their precious "Stealthy Drop Tanks" onto land or sea where someone can just come along & pick them up, i.e. The enemy! Pointless! And sad if their just going to bully 3rd world countries. Typhoon, best choice!

The saudi’s are stupid!They have the capital so why not build the own fighter jet. When the british or americans stop supplying them they are f*cked.

Tranche 2 block 5 will have some air-to-ground capabilities. GB is also heavily pushing forward towards integrating such weapons. One of their Eurofighters has already successfully dropped an Enhanced Paveway II, that was a block 5 production aircraft.
You compare prices which are not comparable. Lets wait and see, I think the F-35 will be much more expensive.

Hmmm,3 F-22 Squadrons.Well thats one more squadron than our soon to be retired F-117 squadrons.I looked it up on Global Security.org.I also saw the “mythical” F-22J for Japan.I honestly think that the F/A-37 Talon from the movie “Stealth” has a more realistic of being built than a version of the F-22 for Japan or Israel(but then again,why should we build F-22s for Japan or Israel? Its ours,all ours,bwahahaha).

I see that the South Koreans have a newer version of the F-15E Strike Eagle,the F-15K. You know,unless we have just started using a cloaking device,I see VERY LITTLE of the new aircraft that we are supposed to have.The F-18 Super Hornet is a big step backwards from the old F-14 Tomcat.We may never see the F-35 JSF deployed in our lifetime.Also,we may have enough F-22s to fill,what,4 squadrons? All of those new F-22s promised to be built are just F-22s not built yet.But then,we'll never go to war with Russia &/or China because we're all just kumbiya with each other.How come they(American plane makers) are still building "yesterday's" jet fighters(F-16s & F-15s),but we are having such a hard,if not impossible time getting "tomorrow's" jet fighters(F-22s & F-35s) on line,hmmmm?
