For every 'K' that gets scrapped before A400 appears, then we need to buy a fully-fitted Mk4 'J' to replace it, convert the crews and start to ease some of the burden on the existing 'J' fleet!!
And just where would the Air Wing of the British Militia get the money to buy them?? With the Army presently updating mothballed 432's from the tank museum to fill the patrol vehicle shortfall,perhaps we should ask Cosford et al for the Belfasts and Andovers back!!

Not sure everyone one wants to go 'J' either!!
