A total of 22 aircraft then. Mmm, quite a small number - in fact that is so small that I doubt even a cash strapped British military would bother procuring such small numbers. Why not just get a few more JSF or Tranche 3 Typhoon - less support costs afterall, than going to all the effort to have a support set-up for a 'fleet' of just 22 jets. Are you talking utter boll**ks.......? Perhaps!
