Indeed, as pr00ne says, by about 1963, there was nothing left in RAFG of Battlefield support nature except the Fighter Recce Hunters and whatever the Javelins could do, but they were all Firestreak armed by then as per SACEUR requirements. When I say what they could do, I understand the Javelin crews had a go at G/A from time to time with their 30mm adens, but nothing to slow things short of an all out nuclear exchange. Worrying times really. 2 ATAF's remit, blast a radioactive path for SAC and Bomber Command to administer the final blow.
