John, I think you will find that this project was to equip the J with a modern DAS and it was cancelled. Sir Glenn Torpy did not appear to be aware of it when quizzed on 7 Mar by Def Com. Belies the myth that MoD was concentrating on anti-missile system before XV179 was shot down. They cancelled the bl***y thing due to cost!
