        Pretty hard to say, lowest cruising speed would be estimated around 180-200 knots for the typhoon. Those planes are not gliders though and giving the angle of attack it would be higher than 200 without flaps. 200knots equals to 370km/h the radars used would not be able to track.

        Ah yes, the F-16 is definitely it's the world’s most advanced swing-role combat aircraft providing simultaneously deployable Air-to-Air and Air-to-Surface capabilities™️

        that pink Fiat looks like it might have at least 7 people in it... I’d suggest firing a few warning shots and see who gets out of it

        Uncanny, spent the first night of my honeymoon in there when it used to be in the Lake District. Huge undertaking to move all that wattle and daub all the way to The Warf... Sits well though now doesn’t it 👍😉

        It's getting the wattle and daub to remain attached during high level mach 2 flight that's genius.

        I think they may have used the modified VTOL Canberra and had it in hover while taking the photo.
