I suppose an indigenous design even if unfit....soothes national ego's better than flying another Nations far more capable design.
Er, the RAF currently flies the C-130 Hercules, the A400 Atlas and the C-17 Globemaster.

Current plans are to retire the Hercules in 2023 and acquire additional A400 Atlas.

Not sure what your point is?
