Top pic BAe’s P. 120 shows its EAP
parentage but has a straight lead- ‘
ing edge and simple pitot intakes
FLIGHT International, 25 May 198&

The P.120 is of the same
general configuration as EAP
but with a straight-leadingedge
delta wing vice EAP’s
cranked leading edge. Other
differences are deletion of the
leading-edge root extensions
under the canards, and a
slightly taller, more pointed
fin than that shown on BAe’s
EFA proposals. The main
difference will be in the
engine intakes, which will be
simple half-round pitot style,
rather than the complexgeometry
box-shaped intakes
of EAP and EFA. EFA’s
complex intakes are to meet
the five nations’ slightly
different requirements, whereas
P.120’s can be simpler to
meet the RAF’s more modest
Mach-number requirements.
The P.120 would be powered
by two “extremely developed”
RB.199s, producing 21,0001b
thrust. The aircraft derives a
lot from EAP structure and
technology and would benefit
from the money already spent
on R&D for EAP and thus
be a logical fallback position
should EFA fail.

Thankyou Thunderbird167 for your exact guidance.:) 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂
I downloaded the pdf and found it on a previous page.

Odd how not one single source on the internet that purports to show the history of the Typhoon ever even mentions the P.120, while the wing and intqake design are clearly closer to the P.120 than the EFA design.

Thanks to all who took the time to read post and to look/research.:D 😀 😀 😀
