Trivia

 * The Typhoon is tied with the F-117A Nighthawk for the highest appearances in the Ace Combat series, appearing in all 12 games and having a fictional variant, the EF-2000E Typhoon II, appear in Ace Combat 3: Electrosphere.
 * Until the release of Ace Combat Infinity, the Typhoon had not seen significant use among friendlies. However, the type has become canon aircraft of Omega. Rather appropriate for his nationality, which is part British. (The UK was a major EFA contributor).
 * In recent naming conventions, the "EF-2000" moniker became somewhat obsolete as the aircraft was meant to enter service in the year 2000. An older designation was "EFA", which stood for European Fighter Aircraft. The final name "Typhoon" was chosen in the late 90's.
