FB11,
I'm just correcting your misapprehensions and trying to accurately reflect what I know about the implications of getting rid of the Jag.
I am a journo, but not the sort who can't tell the difference between 'gen' and one liners.
Finally, it seems as though you need to do your research a bit more thoroughly, as only one of the two platforms "go they will as of the 31st" - the Jags are just going to Coningsby, where it will have another 12-18 months with !!!!ty Six.
Are you aware of when the GR4s and GR7/GR9s will run out of life, and how far ahead of their planned OSD this is?
But I'll take that hug, even from a hairy matelot.
