Just wondering how the MOD will dispose of them..? Giveaways to the USAF,or other countries...?
`Parker`s Guide` to 2nd hand Herks `never raced,or rallied,kept in garage overnight,full Service history`, might suggest the they are worth between £20-25 m each,so they could ,if the MOD are `canny`(and they are usually not),recoup £280-350m...but that will also mean ,they`ll have to pay-off Marshalls a lot in compensation...so there might only be enough left to buy 1 new A400,or 1 F35 at £100m each.....
