Typhoon Reaches New Capability Milestone
Four ASRAAM were successfully launched by RAF Typhoon F2s of No 3 (Fighter) Sqn from Feb. 26 to Mar. 2.

These successful firings represent a further step towards Typhoon's planned take over of the southern element of the United Kingdom's Quick Reaction Alert (QRA) air defence stance, which 3 (F) Squadron will undertake from the middle of this year (2007).
