ARRSE forum has been offline / down most of this week. Laughingly with costs in mind, ones thoughts are wondering with smaller platforms such as Saab GlobalEye (well several platforms) but lest with today's technology "less is more".
However our mission workloads demand a lot more......maybe the easy answer is Wedgetail based on commonality?
