They need Typhoon EK for EW

Yes the UK needs more Typhoons but not those models. The war in Ukraine has show that assets like EA-18G would be invaluable. Russia's EW has been a major show stopper as Ukraine lacks the means to deal with it effectively. EA-18Gs would have no problem locating and destroying Russian EW sites Additionally, the EA-18G primary of SEAD again invaluable. The newer variant of AGM-88, the AARGM-ER range is 160 miles That allows it to engage everything short of the S-400 and S-500 The UK should invest in the Typhoon EK with SPEAR-3 SPEAR-EW and SPEAR-5 capability A Typhoon EK backing both F-35B as well Tempest would keep both combat effective for decades to come
