Los Eurofighter británicos han derribado tres drones iraníes en el pasado ataque del 14 de abril a Israel: https://aviationweek.com/defense/budget-policy-operations/uk-raf-typhoons-shot-down-three-iranian-drones-documentary-reveals
The pilots reported a regular drumbeat of drone formations, five to six at a time every 30 sec. or so along the route they were covering. The engagements were complicated by the presence of other aircraft as the Eurofighters sought to avoid potential fratricide.
It is unclear how the Typhoons were armed. Up to four Asraams can be carried by a Typhoon. The documentary appears to suggest that the two aircraft were out of missiles after engaging three drones, which may hint that the aircraft were only carrying two missiles each. The pilots also reported regular streaks in the sky as Iranian tactical ballistic missiles flew over them, arcing into the sky. One pilot described the situation as “mental,” adding “this is World War III.”
