This bit of the telegraph article was interesting....

All but 10 of the fighters are suffering from serious issues with their automated systems. Cooling fluid is leaking from sensors in the wings that are supposed to detect enemy aircraft, making the sensors unreliable.

The problem could be easily repaired, but engineers are unable to source the necessary parts because the manufacturer has gone out of business.


Really ?
