I doubt they're ecstatic, but probably not that worried either. It's not as if the images are anything like real time.

The "Jag sqn in a base in Norfolk" is RAF Coltishall - and I know that without looking at Google Earth. The fact that it operates Jags has been common knowledge for those interested in that sort of thing for a couple of decades.

Dodgy stuff is hidden away when satellites go over, since their paths are so predictable. Which is why you can't see this anywhere here.
