The 2011 events and exhibitions calendar will be a busy one for Eurofighter who will have a presence in aerospace and defence events across the world. Following successful participation at Aero India in Bangalore and IDEX in Abu Dhabi during February, the Eurofighter Typhoon team have begun the summer season with events in both Turkey and the Czech Republic this week.
Eurofighter has been in attendance this week at IDET 2011 in Brno, Czech Republic, the 11th International Exhibition of Defence and Security Technologies and one of the largest in Central and Eastern Europe. Eurofighter has a stand at the show which will include the latest Helmet Mounted Symbology System (HMSS) and a scale model of the Typhoon.
In addition, Eurofighter have had a significant presence at IDEF 2011, the 10th International Defence Industry Fair in Turkey which was held between 10th and 13th May, 2011 at Tuyap Fair, Convention and Congress Center in Istanbul. The Eurofighter stand included a CAPTOR-E radar, Praetorian DASS pods, a PIRATE/IRST model, a Meteor missile, a Eurofighter Typhoon scale model and a HMSS dynamic display. The stand area included a Eurofighter cockpit demonstrator which was manned by an Alenia Aeronautica test pilot and Italian Air Force pilot.
Eurofighter are attending many shows across Europe this summer in order to highlight the capabilities of the aircraft and the significant benefits brought by participation in the programme. For both Turkey and the Czech Republic, the Typhoon will bring full operational independence as well as full NATO and coalition interoperability to their air forces. In addition, a wide range of industrial partnership opportunities would be developed thanks to the broad spectrum of activities the Eurofighter partner companies have in all sectors of defence, aerospace and security.
