En las "revisticas" que el sitio del EFA tiene para bajarse (http://www.eurofighter.com/po_ma.asp) sale una noticia curiosa...

 

"In support of the ongoing campaign to export Eurofighter Typhoon to India, the Chief of the Indian Air Force, Air Chief Marshal Fali Homi Major, spent two days with the Eurofighter programme in Spain to be briefed on

the production and operational aspects of the Spanish Air Force’s newest weapon system.

 

 

Part one of Air Chief Marshal Major’s trip took in the Final Assembly facilties at EADS CASA, Getafe, on 21 January. Hosted by Mariano Barrena, Key Account Leader at EADS Defence & Security in Spain, and

Antonio Rodriguez Barberán, Director of Marketing and Sales at Military Air Systems, India’s top Air Force official was given unrestricted access to Military Air Systems’ production capabilities. Day two saw the Air Chief Marshal flown to Morón Air Force Base on the invitation of Colonel Machés,

Base Commander at Morón, for a bilateral meeting between the two Air Forces.

 

Although he didn’t participate in any flying, a Eurofighter Typhoon display of aerobatics was organised in his honour where Air Chief Marshal Major was able to admire the aircrafts performance.

 

The India campaign, for the export of 128 multi-role combat aircraft, is set to hot up over the next twelve months. The flying evaluations will take place at the end of the year, possibly running into 2009, where

each competing party is expected to place three aircraft in-country for a period of three months. The results of these evaluations will determine the three aircraft to be short-listed. The Indian authorities will then assess the respective manufacturers’ responses to the initial Request for Proposal

(RFP), submitted already in early March this year, before a final decision is given."

The Commander of the German Air Force Command also responded to media questions at concerning Tranche 3. He confirmed the German Air Force would need the ordered total of 180 Eurofighter Typhoon, this number being confirmed time and time again by the German Parliament. With Eurofighter Typhoon now in full service, the German Air Force can meet international obligations towards NATO and the European Union.

 

In 1990’s the Germans wanted to withdraw from the Eurofighter project but the could not leave for legal reasons.
