Quite so.
Absolutely outrageous that the Jag has been taken out of service so prematurely, given that the EuropHoon is some way off achieving anything like the Jaguar's present day air-to-ground capability.
We have a morally bankrupt government which continues to demand more and more from less and less, yet refuses adequate funding to support its own 'interventionist' aspirations.
When will it all implode?
