In 2004, the Fourth Squadron based in Grosseto, Tuscany, converted to the all-purpose fighter. In 2009, the squadron accomplished its 10,000th flight hour (Italian: "diecimila ore") on the Eurofighter and to mark this occasion, decorated the tail unit with a special livery. Designed as part of a co-operative effort by Germany, Italy and the UK to produce an air superiority fighter, the Eurofighter was first flown on March 27th, 1994. The Eurofighter is a single-seat, twin-engine, agile combat aircraft used in air-to-air, air-to-ground and tactical reconnaissance roles. It is intentionally aerodynamically unstable, which gives it its high levels of agility-but this means the Typhoon is controlled by a computerized "fly by wire" system instead of by its pilot. The Eurofighter's first rate performance is matched by excellent all round vision and by sophisticated attack, identification and defense systems and stealth technology. © Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
