M’s didn’t exist when 90 did. I’m an Airbus lover, so I’ll declare that however, ADF and operations - stop and think, do some research out of the self loving Oz bubble and yea shall soon discover that other nations have (and still do) deploy the same platforms (Airbus) into real combat operations. Is it Airbus, or is it ineptitude inside of the Australian operator? Much easier to blame the manufacturer than accept responsibility for incompetence.
