The F3s would probably have been getting an Air defence Radar Information service frome the GCI site. It is (near as damn it) the same service that they would get from ATC. GCI would be providing the info on which UK airspace regulation compliance could be achieved.
Airmiss = Airprox these days. & not infrequently filed cos the TCAS has gone off!!!
I do tend to agree that tis far more helpfull to get the facts before slinging the mud around. Especially if you don't know what you are talking about.
QRA would not have been "taking out " any target. They would probably have been intercepting to ID and possibly escort or shadow. You may have noticed that there are very few airliners "Taken out" in UK airspace. the passengers don't like it!!!!!!!!!!
