Synopsis
In 2016, the RAF's Typhoon deployed to the Middle East for the first time. Flying a heavily armed, state-of-the-art supersonic multi-role jet, the RAF's Top Gun pilots knew the slightest error in their pinpoint strikes could have fatal consequences, and faced ever-present threat from hi-tech surface-to-air missiles. For their boss, Wing Commander Mike Sutton, the sadistic murder of an allied pilot shot down over the battleground was never far from his thoughts. A gripping and dramatic story of modern warfare, Typhoon puts the reader into the cockpit like never before. Strap in, light the afterburners, and hold on tight...
