No display, sorry.
When Typhoon takes off, it's SOP to climb at 70 - 80 deg because the engines are so powerful. If there was a problem on take-off the plane would be miles away before it could be turned for an emergeny landing. Hence the near vertical climb-out.
It's good to have a brother who is an engineer on the Typhoon project !
