BTW, out of interest when did Kings Troop Royal Horse Artillery last deploy in a combat role with their horses?
No idea, but it must have cost a lot less to maintain the horses than it has to maintain the sorry remnants of Fighter Command...
Surely, given how much trade the GR fleets have had in the last 16 years, compared to how little the AD boys have done, it would make more sense to buy a posh new GR aircraft, rather than procure a supposedly world-beating AD aircraft and then try to hang bombs off it? Or am I just being a rotary w**ker again?
