Qatari Typhoon shoots down Iranian jets using long-range Meteor missiles | The National

Just read about Qatar using a Eurofighter Typhoon to shoot down two Iranian bombers with long-range Meteor missiles. It happened over the sea near the Gulf. The missiles are incredibly fast and have a huge 'no escape zone' - once locked on from 60km, the target is pretty much guaranteed to be hit. Qatar also intercepted drones and missiles. Gulf countries are condemning the attacks and reserving the right to respond. https://www.thenationalnews.com/news/mena/2026/03/04/qatari-typhoon-took-out-iranian-jets-using-meteor-long-range-missiles/

Makes you wonder what those bombers were planning. This whole region is on a knife's edge right now. Hope this doesn't spark something bigger.

So it's come to this... This is how a regional cold war goes hot. The Gulf nations arming up with top-tier Western tech was inevitable, but using it like this? Dangerous escalation.

Crazy. Those Meteor missiles are no joke. Shows you can't just fly into someone's airspace anymore. Good defense move by Qatar.
