Summary edit

Description
English: A Royal Air Force Typhoon pilot enters the cockpit as the sun sets over Gioia del Colle, southern Italy.

As RAF Typhoon aircraft play a greater part in deliberate targeting operations, where targets are pre-planned, more are carrying four of the 1000lb Enhanced Paveway II bombs. The aircraft's ability to use its Litening III targeting pod to direct the highly accurate bombs means that a single Typhoon can have a devastating effect on Qadhafi regime targets.
