Regarding the price, guys you all neglecting today's inflation and future inflation.

Look at the gold prices, usually need to calculate gold/ weapon ratio.

Don't compare ,10 year's ago price with today prices. Nowadays all currencies have lost value.
On the other hand anyone knows how much UK and Qatar paid for them?

"5 April 2016, Kuwait signed a contract with Leonardo valued at €7.957 billion (US$9.062 billion) for the supply of the 28 aircraft, all to third tranche standard. The Kuwaiti aircraft will be the first Typhoons to receive the Captor-E "



In 2017:
" Qatar buys 24 Eurofighter Typhoon jets in £6bn deal"

One could say that Gulf nations are not the best examples, but Italy was presented a bill of up to 8.1 billion USD for 24 Tranche 4s to replace their T1s last year.

Theyv would never do that. Rn they're in a tight spot they can't risk loosing one of their most important partners rn.
Brexit fucked over UK's economy so much that I don't expect them to fuck us over either. They need partners and defence contracts usually create long term ties.

Besides, it's UK, they have to counteract the French influence over Europe and Italians and Spanish has to do to same for Mediterranean . France is pushing things with Greece and Southern Cyprus, (even fucked over Ukraine by vetoing ammo purchase from us, remember that?) and supporting Haftar in Libya, others can't allow that and we are the best asset to help them.

Could this deal bring other fruits or it would be too much? I mean RR could supply with jet engines Kaan - Kızılelma?

Xg40 father of EJ200 totally belongs to Brits.

This is absolutely horrible deal but it is what it is . I would say it will be at least 18bn for 44 aircraft. Probably not much of weapons either.
5, 6 bn of pounds for 20 planes and weapons? I don't think that many weapons and engines come with that. This is probably worse deal then 21bn$ for 40 F16s and 40 kits
At least, Americans offered plenty of the weapons but probably no integration of Turkish weather. I think, Typhoons won't have Turkish weapons either . Obviously, training and maintenance for the new type is understandable.
I hope at least that for initial training, Brits will give their airframes , 2.6 bn £ for support and training?????
I have to give it to the British, they hate Turkey more than anybody, but for the difference of Euro charlatans, they make money.
Oh yes? 700 + millions for those 12 junk c130.
I hope that Turkiye, gives this chunk of money to these for the last time.
