Eurofighter Typhoon, Super Hornet strike fighter and more at Aero India 2011

Two Eurofighter Typhoons of the Italian Air Force arrived safely in Bangalore to showcase their outstanding operational capabilities at Aero India 2011. The air show will be held at the Air Force Station Yelahanka in Bangalore between the 9th and 13th of February. This is the first time that the Italian Air Force Typhoons visit India and will thrill the visitors attending the 8th edition of the Indian aerospace exhibition with breathtaking maneuvers and aerobatics of the world’s most advanced multi-role combat aircraft.
Eurofighter Typhoon is one of the competitors in the Indian Air Force MMRCA tender and is regarded as the most advanced aircraft in terms of performance and technology. The Typhoon combines high combat effectiveness with low cost of ownership making it the best value for money combat aircraft worldwide. The Boeing Company will also showcase a broad range of aerospace capabilities at the Aero show, "We are excited by India's growing engagement as one of our key aerospace customers and supplier partners," said Dinesh Keskar, president Boeing India.
"The breadth and depth of our commitment is demonstrated though our companywide participation in defense and civil aviation at Aero India 2011." Boeing's exhibit will feature large-scale models, interactive displays, a P-8I mobile console, and a Super Hornet simulator with a next-generation cockpit. During the show's twice-daily flying demonstrations, Boeing will present the capabilities of its advanced, combat-proven, multirole F/A-18E/F Super Hornet strike fighter -- with a full weapons payload -- and conduct customer orientation flights. Visitors also will see the C-17 Globemaster III military transport and, making its international debut, a representation of the Super Hornet International Roadmap, which will be on static display from February 9.
