British Typhoon fighters have been deployed for the first time in the mission to defeat Islamic State in Syria and Iraq.

Two Typhoons and two Tornado jets were sent from the British military base RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus on a combat mission.

It follows the deployment of jets to the region following Wednesday's historic vote in the Commons.

The mission came as Prime Minister David Cameron insisted British war planes can help to bring about a political settlement in the civil war-torn country.

Earlier RAF Tornado fighter jets flew an armed patrol over the east of the country "gathering intelligence on terrorist activity", the Ministry of Defence said.

And in a continuation of operations in Iraq, two Tornados "silenced" a "terrorist" sniper team with a "direct hit" from a Paveway IV guided bomb, it added.

The number of fighter jets based at Akrotiri has been bolstered ahead of further sorties in Syria and continued raids in Iraq against IS, which is also known as Isis, Isil and Daesh.

F-22 Raptor is plagued with problems, you can't call it most advanced when it isn't a reliable fighter jet and don't deny it since its issues are very known otherwise USAF would order more. F-22 is a failure and its production is discontinued since 2011.

You have all information on wikipedia if you don't have time to do research around web.

Typhoon is a beast, F-22 is a beast with dull fangs and teeth and lack of off it too.

Typhoon is far more reliable, it has much wider armarment/weapon options, F-22 needs two external fuel tanks to match Typhoons range, can F-22 use Meteor or IRST-T or KEPD 350 or Storm Shadow or Paveway II to IV? No, Typhoon can...

Typhoon is far more versatile and reliable than F-22...

Tejas... It makes me sad for all the money wasted, they could have bought scores of planes.

Did Indians went straight for a full blooded jet fighter? -_-"

They should have done baby steps like smart people, don't rush, take your time, you first build a subsonic trainer jet then you slowly grow from that, F-22 and F-35 are good examples of when people rush when technology or knowledge isn't just there...

Typhoon and Gripen are good examples of how to make a fighter jet.
