I take it the MoD have someplace safe and secure to store the 84 spare aircraft?

I accept that numbers will reduce with time as AC get pranged, but initially that's a lot of planes.

I trust they'll be dispersed to different locations?

Imagine them stored in one warehouse - a simple building fire could be very expensive!
