RAF Typhoon fighter jets land and take off from a road for first time
RAF Typhoon fighter jets have landed and taken off from a regular road for the first time – demonstrating how the air force can respond rapidly to attack even in the most remote locations and with minimal support crews.
Two of the RAF's front-line jets took off from a single-lane road in Tervo, Finland, which is normally used by normal road traffic but specially designed as an emergency landing strip to sustain aircraft activity if needed.
