Oman is now the seventh country in the world, and the second in the Middle East, to operate the Typhoon, joining the air forces of the UK, Germany, Italy, Spain, Austria and Saudi Arabia.
BAE Systems has delivered more than 25,000 support equipment and test systems to more than 24 countries worldwide.
