The thrilling account of the Typhoon FGR4s in the war against ISIS, from the RAF Wing Commander who led them into combat

Adrenaline-fuelled. A rare insight into the high-pressure, high-stakes world of an RAF fighter squadron at war JOHN NICHOL

________

''Dragon, we''ve got reports of a mortar firing team to the west of Mosul. We need you to redeploy now . . .''

Mike Sutton commanded the RAF's top Typhoon squadron across Iraq and Syria in the war against ISIS. Flying a Eurofighter Typhoon FGR4, the most advanced multi-role combat aircraft in the world, across treacherous skies, he was dodging ground fire, anti-aircraft artillery, and surface-to-air missiles.

Split-second decisions and actions made the difference between life and death in the air - and on the ground . . .

Typhoon tells the dramatic story of an air-combat squadron in action, putting you in the cockpit, hands gripping the controls, the sounds of battle crackling in your ears.

Buckle up!
