19FortyFive stated that Russia may be afraid of British fighters in the Baltic States
Russia may be afraid of the deployment of British Typhoon fighters in the Baltic States, according to the American publication 19FortyFive.
The publication notes that Typhoon fighters took part in the interception of Russian aircraft, and were also used in Syria. In particular, in December 2021, for the first time since the Falklands War (1982), a British fighter used weapons (an Advanced Short Range Air—to-Air Missile) to destroy a target.
The publication states that Typhoon is distinguished by high maneuverability, a modern electric control system and excellent avionics. "Typhoon is a powerful fighter that will serve the British until the 2030s," the publication says.
In December 2021, The Drive reported that the United Kingdom and Japan, having signed a joint memorandum, united to create a new engine for combat aircraft. Work on a joint demonstration model of the power unit should start in early 2022.
