Where on earth did you pull that question from? You took a thread from nowhere and got back to Sea Harrier; while, as always, not acknowledging the points I raise in reply to your previous shot gun blasts.
No. I'm not saying that there is no air threat in the littoral but the F-35 won't be sitting on a CAP in the overhead of the carrier. Just like the air threat in the littoral today is equally unlikely to be countered by a Sea Harrier but PLEASE, go back and read all the Sea Harrier comments I made about capabilities in that thread before making this another hybrid to rant about days gone by.
Are you sure you were in the RN? You are doing a tremendous job for the other two services.
