Typical senior pongo green army understanding of air power. Also has a hint of Duncan Sandys and the 1957 Defence White Paper - 'Manned aircraft are now obsolete' - and we all know how wrong and damaging that was. Lucky for us that Lt Col Blunt is Lt Col (Retd) and therefore just another complainer amid a sea of supporters.
His comments are as well thought out as suggesting that infantry is now obsolete and should be taken up and modernised by the RAF and RN.
Bunch of arse, Sir. Stick to the gardening.
