And the jags required a 15,000ft runway to get airborne..oh yes and when the fog rolls in like in Italy hummmm!! Please boys can the carrier cover us. Looking to the future a JSF with 39,000 lbs of thrust will be able to do anything the airforce has now or will have. There USAF and RAF have much in common trying to justify its existance. With the USAF its pretty easy, however, me thinks the RAF is somewhat struggling hence GR7's on the boat. All food for thought, Purple isa the way to go its just a case of everyone accepting it.
