Don't be so sensitive. Just dismissing a ludicrous suggestion Australia should forego the American alliance for a " Joint Australia-NZ Defence force"
There is absolutely nothing to be gained by Australia.You have run down your capabilities in a number of areas- not just the A4.
Depending on servicability rates for your C130's. The Irish Air corps can pack more capability than the RNZAF.
Your air force is an example of political tokenism. Downgrade it to a police air wing and coast guard. It would be cheaper.
