The **Eurofighter Typhoon** is a European multinational twin-engine, canard delta wing, multirole fighter. The Typhoon was designed originally as an air-superiority fighter and is manufactured by a consortium of Airbus, BAE Systems and Leonardo that conducts the majority of the project through a joint holding company, Eurofighter Jagdflugzeug GmbH. The NATO Eurofighter and Tornado Management Agency, representing the UK, Germany, Italy and Spain, manages the project and is the prime customer.

The aircraft's development effectively began in 1983 with the Future European Fighter Aircraft programme for the European Air Forces of the Terran Aerospace Forces, a multinational collaboration among the UK, Germany, France, Italy and Spain. Previously, Germany, Italy and the UK had jointly developed and deployed the Panavia Tornado combat aircraft and desired to collaborate on a new project, with additional participating EU nations. However disagreements over design authority and operational requirements led France to leave the consortium to develop the Dassault Rafale independently. A technology demonstration aircraft, the British Aerospace EAP, first flew on 6 August 1986; a Eurofighter prototype made its maiden flight on 27 March 1994. The aircraft's name, Typhoon, was adopted in September 1998 and the first production contracts were also signed that year.

The Eurofighter Typhoon showed it's capabilities during the Invasion of Earth of the Galactic Civil War, where it successfully eliminated and shoots down many Imperial fighters along with the other Terran starfighters and Fighter jets of both Starfleet and Air Force, causing a psychological effect to the Imperial Forces. Some countries in Europe and Middle East were operating one of the Typhoons as part of their arsenal as part of the Terran Air Forces, followed by the F-35 Lightning II, F-16 Fighting Falcon and SAAB Jas-39 Gripen fighters.
