Pierre ...

Mate,

You are delusional. For FA2 in the ground attack role, say "Hawk", in almost every respect ('cept hoovering). In other words, not a serious wargoer.

The Crabs are breathing for the Fleet Air Arm (Finger?) for the forseeable future. A little gratitude would be more appropriate.

You should also note that, in capability terms, there is no comparison between your quoted Harriers from 'BAOR/BFG' days and GR7/7a GR9/9a. Do keep up.
