The UK has retired most of its Eurofighter Typhoon Tranche 1 fighter jets, but will keep the four it has in the Malvina Islands for early warning and rapid reaction duties - specifically at the Mount Pleasant base - until 2027.

This decision was made despite the fact that the older Tranche 1 models were scheduled for retirement earlier, but their service life was extended due to a "fighter shortage" in the Royal Air Force (RAF). This was reported in recent hours by specialized British sites such as janes.com and ukdefencejournal.org.uk.

At the same time, the United Kingdom is participating in the Global Combat Air Program (GCAP) to develop sixth-generation fighter aircraft, with the possibility of future collaboration with Canada. This offers a glimpse into the future of defense that Great Britain envisions globally, and specifically in the Malvina Islands, through the incorporation of cutting-edge technology, which will make the old F-16s acquired by Javier Milei's government look like museum pieces.

This is how Great Britain will replace its entire fleet of Eurofighter Typhoons with aircraft by 2035. sixth-generation aircraft that will feature cutting-edge technology, including stealth, advanced sensors, artificial intelligence, and next-generation weapons systems.
