On the Wikipedia web page for the Eurofighter Typhoon, they claim that a single British Typhoon was able to defeat two USAF F-15E's in a mock dogfight in 2005. And that in a 2005 evaluation by the Singapore Air Force, a single Typhoon defeated 3 F-16's. Although for some odd reason, Singapore ended up buying F-15's instead of the Typhoon.
And in one official evaluation done last year, a group of 8 Typhoons were able to defeat a force of 27 other planes, that included F/A-18 Hornets, Mirage F1's, Harriers, and F-16's, without any losses to the Typhoons. I wonder if this test could have been rigged at all??
I guess if there is another major air war in Europe anytime soon, the RAF is going to really kick butt!
