its not a typhoon, in fact it's quite different from a typhoon, I donlt belioeve the Indian Air Force flies Typhoons.

Looks like a Sukhoi 27 (similar to Mig 29)

It's a Sukoi 27 flanker which was designed to compete with the F15

Thank you all for your responses. Much appreciated.

The aircraft in the picture is indeed the Sukhoi Su-30MKI of the Indian Air Force.

The Indian Air Force does not fly Typhoons, yet. All that may change if current negotiations end positively; the Indian Air Force could be acquiring a substantial number of Typhoons.
