The Raptor wins by the single fact that it is airworthy while the Typhoon is not. Greetings from that country that has Typhoons sitting on the ground, constantly being maintained.

@EmperorLionflame German Typhoons have a combat readiness rate of less than 30%... might be on par then. That's mostly the problem with rather expensive aircraft with their design history dating back to the cold war era with less need to have them ready nowadays. I live quite close to an AB that has Typhoons stationed there. I see or hear one or max. two of them (they're flown single ship a lot here) maybe thrice a year. A while ago I've been in the vicinity of an AB thst still has Tornados. I literally saw them more than once a day - every day - within two weeks.
