Knowing the MODs strategies and with respect to the forthcoming "expenditures review" the Triphoon will probably surpass its designed life by approximately 15 years.

Given the optionally piloted F-18 test recently, it could be the case that we're looking at it too. We could just apply it to Typhoons directly.
