Summary

Description
British English: Two Royal Air Force (RAF) Typhoon jets of No. 6 Squadron RAF, based at RAF Leuchars in Fife, Scotland, are pictured enroute to a practice bombing exercise at Cape Wrath.

The aircraft carry dummy Paveway II laser guided bombs. The 'bomb' is painted blue to show that it is inert, but the guidance package attached to the nose and tail of the bomb is the same as that which would be attached to a live bomb.

The guidance package is able to deliver Paveway II onto a target with very high accuracy.
