The best aircraft are not the best without the best pilots. The RAF has a record of delivering some of the worlds best pilots.
Never find a better pilot than a Brit
Absolutely spot on we do produce the best pilots I served on the harrier OCU at wittering for 5 years and saw alot of baby jocks coming through the doors and they were switched on cookies and cracker pilots. Laid back and just cracked on.

@@sabredivision509 Very patriotic of you mate but I'd argue that our Yank, Frog and Kippur (in much smaller numbers) friends are very capable and taken across the board as well trained as the RAF.
@@sabredivision509 yes
the raf typhoon is an awsome jet and still one of the best jet fighters 😊😊
One of the best ASFs in the world by far. It was at one point considered by the Republic of Singapore to be purchased as their new fighter aircraft to replace their retired A4SU Super Skyhawks, however the lack of an Air-to-Ground capability back then was a major drawback and resulted instead with the RSAF purchasing American F-15 Strike Eagles instead. Good to see that the ground attack capability has been added, particularly so now that the RAF Tornados are either all retired or close to retiring from service. Brimstone and Meteor look very good too, and paired with the Typhoon this is easily a plane that can hold the mantle of "Guardian Of The Sky" for the RAF and the UK.
It is.
Nelsonwmj typhoons are the most powerful fighter jet, no acceptance
Great presentation.
How did the EE Lightning not get into the top ten?
We should have done a Top 11! You may like this video though about a man with an EE Lightning in his garden. -> th-cam.com/video/DrLmJA745Xo/w-d-xo.html
Fun fact: it had less time in the air than a ww1 plane
@@forces_news why are 3 of the top 10 private, will we be able to watch them soon?
Was at Coningsby few days ago watching them take of and land amazing aircraft
Glad to see 1f fighter Sqn on the tail of the typhoon taking over from the harrier that I was on to 98 at wittering. I wish I worked on the typhoon it looks boss
Such a pretty aircraft
So stunning
Beautiful!
The beautiful looking jet 😍😍😍
Always loved the EF Typhoon. I'm sure I'll grow to love the Lightning and Tempest but that Typhoon! Mm mm.
I would love to see a formation of Typhoon + F-35B
Very capable aircraft!
Dear Daddy...May we have some too?...Luv always, your eldest son, RCAF.
Lmao
🤣🤣the reason only we have it is because it replaced our spitfire and tornadoes, it’s also our way of celebrating winning world war 1 and 2 for other countries and placed to have I put wouldent make sense and Royal Air Force (who it’s make with) think of Royal, the royal family United Kingdom. Still funny af though!
The art of High - Flying 🛫... beautiful structure and skill.Fantastic information 🤔Great respect 🕊️ Bows to pilots and skills!
My Favorite jet!!! Its beautiful!!! The sound she makes is GODLY!!!!!🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🔥🌊🌊
Bagus & Mantaaap...
Best multi roll on the planet
Great fighter
God bless England !!!
Soviet Spud u are our brotherin 👍👍
Would be my dream to fly one of these one day...please.
I wish you luck, you can do it
Good luck on getting the lisence!
Hopefully Finland (my country) would chose Typhoon to replace our aging F18s. I think Typhoon is good mix of performance, price and "future proof" choice. Not as expensive as F-35 but on other hand not as aging plane as for example Super Hornet. And overall from how the plane looks and how agile it is, its absolutely my favorite :D
The F-35 is cheaper, actually.
The noise if this jet is scary, shakes your ribcage,
Britain should have finished development into a naval version to meet the needs of the RN
Britain doesn't develope anything my friend. The Typhoon is a joint venture between Britain, Germany, Spain and Italy and gets developed and produced by Airbus which is a multinational european company.
Why would Britain want to develop the Typhoon for the Royal Navy?
At the moment the Royal Navy has two aircraft carriers that can only operate aircraft with vertical take off and landing abilities, like the F35. The only other airplanes compatible with the Royal Navy's carriers are in museums, such as the Harrier or that thing from the USSR.
When the Typhoon was being developed the Royal Navy had a very old carrier which was on it's way out. I know they used the Harrier on that, but I don't know if it actually had a catapult for anything else.
There is no point in the Royal Navy operating an aircraft unless it has something to land on or to take from.
I am sure the technology built into the F 35 and its variants is top of line today and maybe for a few years but as time goes on time will tell if opponents of the West will learn to decipher stealth and make this plane average or not. When the F 117 Nighthawk was considered invisible and state of the art until it got shot down in 1999 over Yugoslavia by a ground missile. Just like Beyond Visual Range weapons which in theory are stand off weapons fire and forget and paint another kill on your plane go for a barbecue and tell stories many modern fighters have very effective defense against missiles to the point that you better make them count when firing or you might become a target as planes close distance quickly. Having grown up in England in a RAF household and other countries where my father was an Air Traffic Controller until the 80's I learned that you never how good your toys are until you actually use them in a real fight and only then can you mark your scorecard. I worked in the Canadian arctic for about 10 years during the cold war at many DEWLINE Radar Sites which were designed to detect bombers and cruise missiles and almost all of our military bosses were ex USAF fighter pilots who were Colonels. Our last boss flew F 4's, F 106's and F 15's before getting a desk job and then transferring to NORAD. The biggest issue I see with the F 35 is that it is not a tested platform in the sense of longterm cost effectiveness, reliability and mission capability. As far as Typhoon goes the only thing I wish is that they could of made it carrier capable like the French did with the Rafale. I hope the F 35 turns out to be a great plane for the tax payer and military because militaries tend to relegate equipment from the front line to lower tier roles when they underperform so they don't have to admit failure.
That's not what happened and that's not how it works.
I don't know much about airplanes but if the Spitfire ain't number one I'm out.
The Mosquito should be no1. The Spit kept us in the war. The Mossie won it.
Mossie won it? Last I checked the red army won the war.
Anyone else see the 100 Spitfires today??
Yeah but not 100 spitfires, only 36 flyable in the whole world
do we not like the GR4 anymore ?
Tornado is retired now RIP
100th like
It carries lil attack helicopter missiles, interesting. I hear the brimstones are better than hellfire, but on a multi-role fighter is strange to me. I guess drones fire hellfires, but a Gen. 4 frontline fighter, hmm.
Incredibly expensive too...
First 👀
How many kills does it have if any?
How many does the F22 of the same age and a much more specific AirSup role have ?
They have to ping on you to know your there,rather than listen to yours.
*You're. And your comments make genuinely no sense. The point you're making is probably wrong, but it's extremely hard to know what you're saying. And even more embarrassingly, YOUR (possessive 'you') name makes it seem like YOU'RE (a contraction of 'you' and 'are') English.
It annoys me the buccaneer isn't on this list.
Pinging from satellite?
The typhoon can fly better than the f35
Ironaccaly it is also known as the 'euro'fighter
An initial collaboration between UK, Germany, Italy and Spain (France bailed out.)...I presume that’s why it’s genetically known as the euro fighter...but the UK’s version goes by the name of typhoon...in the same vain as it’s predecessor; the tornado...and, again in keeping with the name scenario...the f35b is the third UK aircraft to be
named “lightning”... ( though essentially classed as American) the UK had a large input into the development of this latest aircraft...✈️
Where's the others 9 !!!
Sponsored by BAE system and the RAF
Well the typhoon is the best fighter ever built and if you disagree reply to me
Rhys 1710 I’m British but the American f35 is much more equipped for combat
Ark In General when it decides to work
Ark In General how
What about the F-22?
Not for dogfighting it isn't Ark..
Most advanced fighter jet on the planet? Lockheed-Martin F-35 Lightning II?
Nah the f 35 is over rated , it'll still be outclassed by an f 15
@@sabredivision509 In speed and payload, yes. In every other category? No. Then again, the F-15 is an air superiority fighter. That's what it was built to do. F-35 is a multirole with a higher focus on ground attack, which explains why it's slower.
@@bigtime9597 My cousin is a USAF Major across the pond. He flew F15s now 35s. He said everything you did. Agility and air to air the f15 is unquestioningly better. But if you want a taxi to an ISIS training camp and drop a ton of bombs with very little chance of being detected early, the 35 is so far ahead it's not even fair.
@iuvenis animo He said a different thing at the end.
@@sabredivision509 Absolutely evidantly not.
Twin stick looks better
Can anyone explane - why brits dont use strategic bombers any more?
Hi Viktor, it is mostly now down to politics, defence budget and need.
Also in terms of nuclear deterrance that strategic bombers used to play big role in, I would bet that the end of the Cold War as well as the fact you can deliver nuclear weapons obvioisly more reliably and quickly to their targets via missiles, that really made strategic bombers kind of thing of the past. I mean you could in fact equip some multirole fighters with smaller nuclear missiles from what I have understood, so that too would eliminate the the need for strategic bombers.
Also think of USA, even they have not developed new strategic bombers in long while now B52's have been in use since 50s, B-1 Lancer doesnt have nuclear capability anymore and only some 20 B2-bombers were ever built. Currently only USA, Russia and China have strategic bombers in their arsenal and NONE new strategic bombers have been built to replace the old ones since the end of the Cold War. So you could say the collapse of Soviet Union and Warsaw Pact really put hold on any further development and manufacturing or even use of strategic bombers.
@@Balnazzardi Strategic bombers made not for delivering A-bomb only, you know...
The question is who and what do you want to bomb? Bombers are useful for heavy load weapons but these cause a lot of colateral damage which you want to avoid in modern conflicts. Its the time precise and small weapons and for those you don't need bombers.
@@Micha-qv5uf Countries like US and Russia for example - still use bombers with hi-precision weapons like cruise missiles
Not true- it's f-35 now right? (most advanced)
most advanced doesn't make it the best fighter lmao.
Level it kinda does mate
no it doesn't.
Guardednivlem No it doesn't, this aircraft is far better suited to the fighter role than the f35. In a dogfight the f35 would be fucked. It's far more adgile and is much faster (nearly 600 km/h)
In dogfights an F-35A would be quite a challenge for a Typhoon. They have different strengths and weaknesses as far as the airframes are concerned. To put it simply, the F-35A has just as much acceleration and better AoA tolerance, meaning it is a better low-speed dogfighter. The Typhoon being a canard-delta design is a better high-speed dogfighter, but is much more draggy at low altitudes or speeds.
But as far as air to air combat is concerned the Typhoon is much more of a missile hauler, while the F-35 is designed to use it's stealth to get into an optimal position, ideally as close as possible without alerting the enemy.
Also, the F-35A and F-35B are both operational, just not within the RAF or RN. I haven't heard any claims of them being fully operational though, only that they have passed IOC. Full operational capability comes later.
Love the Typhoons sexy front cannards ,it would be great to have them replace the ageing Hawks of the Red Arrows display team.Then they would definitely be a match for the American Blue Angels F18 Super Hornets.
Can you do a Rafale F3R Top 10 ?
Because so far, the Typhoon never proven anything in duel contests nor war situation. While Rafale did win F22 Raptor in duel contest and doing war missions since 10 years in Africa / Middle-east.
The Rafale managed to win against an F-22 in situations heavily favoring the Rafale.
Frenchy detected.
the narrator said its multi-role but I beg to differ
If it performs A-A as well as A-G (very capably, also), then what exactly do you differ on as regards to it being multi-role?
Yeah the british have made some of theirs ground atack variants aswell with great new tech and capability.
Loose Seal well I do believe the typhoon is a swingrole aircraft
As being the country we are, we did make them multi role in a way, they are switchable from ground attack to superiority
YOU HAVE A POINT its more a fighter thats adapted its a great plane came way to late and the stealth multi roles have left it behind but its still amazing and with f35s by its side wow
Sams will shoot them down long before they engage enemy aircraft typhoon is already obsolete
Matty K Not at combat height and definitely not after the launch sites have been destroyed. These would be priory targets in the early stages of any conflict. It is the SAMs vulnerability that actually renders THEM obsolete.
@@craigsimons817 I agree with your last bit but i'm sorry, pretty much all modern SAM systems can go far beyond the service cieling of pretty much all fighter aircraft today.
@@AugmentedGravity True, but again thats why you would want to take them out first/not operate within their range in the first place. And also this is where stealth aircraft like F35 could come more in handy, though we honestly have no idea how effective F35 stealth capabilities would be against S-400's radar, would it be able to get close enough to hit Russian SAM systems before those could detect incoming F35s (or F22s for that matter).
@@Balnazzardi We actually do know. The US knows more than you might think about what their adversaries capabilities are. You also have exercises like Red Flag in which real modern radars are tested against stealth aircraft like the 35 and 22 and the results are pretty much the same every time. The weapons which the F-35 can deploy are for that matter long enough range that the 35 can be safe even without needing its stealth capability as much when it employs standoff weapons in that way.
Your uneducated opinion is obsolete.
Comparing it’s take off and landing distance with a Jumbo Jet - laughable.
Tom Murphy well how many times have you been in a jumbo jet compared to a f35. Its makes for an easy understanding of the distance
Devane Risby I can see the sense in that TBF.. Just thought 700m didn’t seem a particularly short distance to be called STOL?
A typhoon could take off at most small airports. A 700m runway is considered as short.
5 mile of death in the RAF makes it so they can stand toe to toe with the paras and commandos. remember lol
because it's relatable, go to a airport and u can see the distance it takes for the jumbo jet to take off, and then imagine what the typhoon can, it takes less than a quarter of the runway.
yet this plane ain't ever seen combat and it won't that job will go to the F-35B
elias winters it has seen combat multiple times
If the US had watched from 3.40 to 4.21, they would have realised why stealth is smoke and mirrors for a fighter.
Sure, for a bomber or reconnaissance aircraft, it's great. They don't need to detect targets so they can turn their radar off. A fighter which uses radar (like the F22) gives its position away as soon as it searches for a target, and radar can be jammed. The Typhoon can turn its radar off and hunt with PIRATE, which is undetectable and unjammable. Given that Typhoon also has the Meteor missile, far superior to the AMRAAM, I think the F22 has been relegated to the 2nd best air superiority fighter.
Hopefully Typhoon and F22 fighters will never go head to head in real combat (though with the idiot in the White House, nothing's impossible), but I know which plane I'd rather be in. And it's not the F22.
I think the thousands of expert and highly educated engineers and scientists know a little bit more than you.
There wouldn't be a war between the UK and the US why would there be considering trump is half British.
Plus we all know it would go nuclear if that impossible situation ever occured which it never would.
@@para7843 Don't both countries have Nuclear weapons though? Unless the Brits are ever moronic enough to let Labour or the Democrats.
The list goes: 22/35, Rafale, EF, etc.
Think the f35 would have something to say about that......
The Typhoon is not the best Jet in the World! The Gripen is lot better as the Rafale Too, if not even more better than the Gripen! When compared to the Typhoon! The Typhoon should cost lot less or way less for sure as what you get for your money! The Price tack of Each Jet Fighter, the Typhoon and Rafale should be the other way around, that how much plane you get with that money, that Rafale should be more expensive (per plane) than the Typhoon!
But which one is more expensive, the Tranche 3 Typhoon costing 90 million pounds (per plane) Or the Rafale C with or without the B, costing 80 million US' Dollars / Euros ( per plane), or even more (with all the weapons)! French weapons, missiles at least are expensive, if not very expensive, as some one has said!?!? And know this! The French Rafale is 5 TH GEN!, yes!, 5 TH GEN Fighter (at its' best 5,5 / 5.5 TH GEN), where the Typhoon might get!?, might get close to 5 TH GEN, or The 5 TH GEN!
Gripen E/F is The 5 TH GEN or close to it, IF, if not OVER, over THE 5 TH GEN! But! Gripen IS NOT A REAL, is not a real = TRUE, true 5 TH GEN FIGHTER, 5 th gen Fighter, as The RAFALE, the Rafale is!
I didn't know there was an answer to this.........
It is not easy to say which is the best jet in the world. As for the costs, you are aware that those are estimates and in no way are the end price that a costumer pays?
The Rafale is not 5th gen, the Typhoon isn't either. And nope, the AASM series is very expensive.
Rafael is not a 5th gen, Fifth gen aircraft are defined by stealth rather than air to air dog fighting capability's, At most it's a 4+ or 4.5 Gen depending on how you prefer to write it, Same as the Typhoon 👍
The French Rafale is better
Is that why the Typhoon has outsold it by some 3 to 1 and continues to gain new orders while the French Air Force isn't ordering any new ones?
Anyway Dassault are now in bed with Airbus to build a 6th Gen fighter (ROFL) so the Germans will be paying the French, Germans will order 150 to gain workshare and then cancel 100 and the French will demand a naval version and lead management meaning it will take 20 years, be 8 times over budget and cost 4 times what a BAE / SAAB fighter will cost. By which time the EU will have collapsed and Germany will have to export with a high value Dmark rather than freeload of the Euro funded by poor Southern Europe countries.
Good luck with all that .....
The Rafale is better. It's the first plane to have a reverse gear as well.
Joe - Thanks I just had a tea / keyboard interface moment right there .... I guess they used the same designer who put 1 forward and 4 revers gears in their Leclerc tanks ...
Well if we're going to debate Europe, let's talk about which European country contributes the most towards Europe's defence and training and has the highest NATO budget (soon to be increasing).
Which European nation is the gateway of trade for both the US and Japan?
Which side of Brexit has claimed the other will be missed?
Okay, let's throw this out there: How is the Rafale better? In what specific areas, by what metrics, and by how much?
I think the Rafale is better
