Well we know what the RAF won't be getting and we know what the Army are likely to lose - - eyes down for the Navy contribution.............
General Sir Richard Barrons apparently is favourably disposed toward this radical shift. The current service chiefs are broadly said to be driving things. Personally, I think we're becoming quite unique as a nation, given our military past. A comprehensive defence posture is not something which has either support or even understanding by many who will make the final decision, they all work in the Treasury apart from Wallace and Cummings. Those who think its all quite outrageous include, Col Richard Kemp and Lord Stirrup alongside Lord Dannatt.
