You need to see the bigger picture in all this.
Stop thinking of the Tornado IDV as a jet aircraft.. And think of it as a PROP aircraft. as in PROPAGANDA. I watched a news report from Iraq recently, where a large part of the reporting was that R.A.F. Tornado's were flying "top cover" for a U.S. air raid. I couldn't help feeling relieved for the U.S. crews, just in case nasty locals managed to fling rocks up high enough to be a threat... Oh hang on a minute, wasn't the day labour wanted to hide something bad. Must just be a co-incidence.

As for another post, stating at least we still have the army and navy, I'm not sure on that one either.
