Which is better eurofighter typhoon or f-22?
The Ef-2000 (Eurofighter 2000) Is the most advanced aircraft out
on the market. The EF-2000 relies on BVRW beyond visual range
warfare. The EF-2000 uses the simple delta wing configuration which
is pretty similar to the mirage and the dassualt raffle. The
EF-2000 was made to fly at supercruise AKA able to fly at a
sustained speed of or over mach 1 without using an afterburner
which drains the fuel dramatically. The Ef-2000 can also be called
the typhoon for it's ferosity in battle. The EF-2000 is made up of
carbon fibre composites, titanium, aircraft grade aluminium and
plastics. The EF-200 is made unstable deliberately to reduce the
drag and increase the "agiability". The Ef-2000 carries an X-band
pulse doppler radar called the ECR-90 and also carries radar
jamming systems. The Engines (my equal favourite part) the EF-2000
is made up of two EJ200 eurojet engines. Each engine is capable to
sustain supercruise. each of these engines produce over 60kg
newtons and with the afterburner 90kg newtons. The engines of the
EF-2000 are also equipped with single crystal turbine blades (which
is essential for modern day warfare.) The weaponry (my equal
favourite bit) the EF-200 has the BVRW the pilot can engage an
aircraft from this system giving it the slight edge over the other
aircraft. The EF-2000 carries ten short range missiles and ten
medium range missiles. The EF-2000 uses thirteen points which it
can carry weaponry, The Ef-2000 also carries a 27mm Gatling gun
which all this weaponry can be used and managed by a single monitor
which shows the weapon and the status of the ammo heat ect. The
EF-2000 Carries a on-board missile warning system which shows the
pilot if they have AA missiles after them so they can engage their
flares. Another feature the Ef 2000 has is the radar jamming
equipment which is handy for the aircraft but not making it into a
AWAC. The F-22 is rather simple to explain because it is not a
fully stealth jet that avoids radar detection but the F-22 is
stealthly enough to make it difficult for the opposing pilot to
detect the F-22. The F-22 also has a bomb bay that has all it's
weaponry it it (except for it's M61A2 vulcan 20mm rotary canon it
the right hand side wing root) and has a hydrolic arm that launches
the missile out of the bomb bay in less than 1 second. The answer
to this question is that both planes aren't better than each other
because the F-22 is an excellent interceptor and the Eurofighter is
a great mulit-role fighter.

The F-22 is not an interceptor, it is an air
superiority/dominance fighter.
The answer to your question highly depends on what you mean by
"better".
*If you want to bomb the living daylights out of something in a
somewhat hostile airspace while defending yourself from a few enemy
jets, then a flight of Eurofighter-2000 "Typhoons" is definitely
the way to go.
*If you want to remain undetected while quickly and effectively
clearing an extremely hostile airspace filled enemy aircraft and
SAM sites on the ground, then a flight F-22 "Raptors" is the way to
go.
Although the Raptor is capable of carrying and dropping bombs
too, it will of course not perform as well as the "Typhoon" because
the Raptor is not a multirole fighter. With the F-22, the majority
of its combat focus is set for air-to-air engagements and remaining
undetected.
If you mean "better" as in putting an F-22 against an EF-2000 in
BVR (Beyond Visual Range), then the Raptor will shred the Typhoon
into pieces before the typhoon even knew that there was a Raptor in
the area. The Raptor can achieve this because of mainly 2
things:
-Defense: It can remain undetected to the EF-2000 in BVR because
the Raptor is optimized to remain "invisible" to x-band Radars in
BVR, denying most opponents, detection and tracking capabilities.
This means that the opponent is denied a firing-solution.
-Offense: Because of its high supercruising speed (Mach 1.8
without afterburners) and high cruising altitude (18 km), coupled
with a very advanced AESA radar (AN/APG-77), the Raptor can provide
its AIM-120C AMRAAMs with a very good flight-envelope. This means
that the AMRAAMs coming out of the F-22's bomb bays will have a
high launch velocity and a high launch altitude, giving the
missiles much more speed and range and the target less time and
speed to survive.
In WVR (Within Visual Range) things get a little more
complicated because the F-22 loses its stealth-advantage
dramatically and with both jets being extremely agile, I would say
a lot will depend on who the better pilot is.
A better comparison IMO would be EF-2000 VS either the F-15E or
F-15SE.
