The Eurofighter Typhoon is a 'canard' , that is, an aircraft that has an elevator or small wing AHEAD of the main wing. This is particularly obvious in the Typhoon, and it's competitor, Rafale,

it has delta wings, wich act as the horizontal stabilisers. The Typhoon is a CANARD, - that means it has elevators ahead of the main wing. You can see them beneath the cockpit.
What is the meaning of t-tail aircraft?
Most typical aircraft have a conventional tail layout that looks like an upside down 'T' with the vertical stabilizer intersecting the horizontal stabilizer at its bottom end. A T-tail aircraft has the horizontal stabilizer at the top of the vertical stabilizer. So instead of an upside down 'T', it looks like a proper 'T'. For an example see the link below.
How does a horizontal stabilizer function?
The horizontal stabilizer on an aircraft helps stabilize the pitch of the airplane by generating lift in the opposite direction to counterbalance the pitch moment created by the wings and fuselage. It also provides stability during level flight and controls the vertical position of the tail. By adjusting the angle of the horizontal stabilizer, pilots can control the pitch attitude of the aircraft.
What control surface controls pitch?
The control surface that controls pitch is the elevator. It is located on the horizontal stabilizer of an aircraft and is used to control the aircraft's pitch attitude by adjusting the angle of the stabilizer.
Which part of an aircraft is the fuselage?
It's the part you sit in, the part to which the wings, rudder, and horizontal stabilizer are attached.

How does a airplane maintain straight and level during flight?
The way an aircraft maintains straight and level flight is by the use of the trim tabs on the wings, tail, and horizontal stabilizer adjusted be the pilot in the cockpit. The use of ailerons, rudder and the horizontal stabilizer can also be used if needed. Also, you must have the correct airspeed or you will stall the aircraft(it doesn't have enough or too much air flow over the wings therefore causing the aircraft to fall).
What is the most powerful Multirole fighter aircraft?
