BAE Systems has won a contract worth approximately £ 135m to advance the next phase of combat aerial or typhoon capacity building. One of the most advanced fighters in the world. This investment will improve weapons capabilities, increase the variety of precision-guided munitions, further strengthen Typhoon’s defense system and data links, and improve fast and secure sharing of data.

The agreement continues the development of typhoon technology-led capabilities by the Eurofighter Consortium and the United Kingdom, Spain, Italy and Germany, increasing interoperability with the Allies and technology for the country’s future combat aviation system. Is part of an ongoing effort to mature.

Typhoon’s current development work includes the design and utilization of a new large touchscreen cockpit display funded by BAE Systems, allowing pilots to assess and respond to increasing amounts of data from aircraft sensors and data links. .. The Typhoon program employs more than 5,000 people directly at BAE Systems, supporting an additional 10,000 jobs across the UK economy.

Richard Hamilton, Director of Typhoon Programs in Europe, said: – BAE Systems Air.

“This deal is just one example of technology-driven innovation being developed in typhoons, maintaining a 100-high-skilled engineering role in the northwest. This brings the UK’s skill base to the world’s combat aviation. You can stay at the forefront. Sectors and sustainable skills needed to provide the next generation of future combat aviation systems. “

The Eurofighter Typhoon is the most advanced multirole fighter in operation, supporting European safety and defense objectives and having great success in the export market. It will continue to operate with countries until the middle of the century.

The agreement was awarded to BAE Systems by Eurofighter, a consortium representing industry partners in the core countries of Airbus, BAE Systems and Leonardo.

Eurofighter Typhoon supports the UK’s strategically important international affairs and operates in seven countries: Germany, Italy, Spain, the United Kingdom, Austria, Oman and Saudi Arabia, with manufacturing orders in Germany, Kuwait and Qatar. Is in progress.
