Nice to see a new type in service. Hopefully we'll see a return of a couple more of our famous old fighter squadrons - or won't we be allowed to adorn their expensive fancy grey paint with red & white checks or tiger stripes?

Are they actually any good? Apart from being stealthy and a bit faster, what do they do that a Harrier GR.9A couldn't? I assume it's all about the electric wizardry?

I still miss the days when we had Harriers, Jags, Buccs, real Lightnings and Phantoms! I guess just two FJ types is as good as it'll ever be now.
