Lighten up chaps, behind the banter most agree that the RAF do a decent job. You don't have to 'prove' it with daft comparisons with tanks, parachutes and whether or not the Pongo's have ever faught a credible opposition.
The rather strong inference made by Glum was that the money spent on aircraft that had never shot anything down was a waste. I think it's a fair response to point out that there are plenty of weapon systems that have done likewise, & it is certainly not 'immature' to do so.
