So, according to the press, we'll lose the Nimrod, Harrier, Jaguar, some Tornados (F3?), Typhoons will be deferred.

Puma will go, Junglies will go. If the carriers are laid up the ASaC 7 will go.

That leaves us with little air defence, some strike and Bu%%er all else.

Things are never as good or as bad as they seem, so hopefully it may not be the doom and gloom scenario we expect. Usually in the these cutback's there's a sweetener somethere. Anyone care to strike a guess at what it is?
