Well if you'd bothered your outraged ar$e to read my original post I acknowledged the transport fleet and SH contribution, which is significant and welcome. Well except movers of course.

Air Power is not Air Power if you can't project it, is it?!?!?! 7 Harriers is not enough to justify the remainder of the RAF, with aforementioned exceptions, when we are in a war, or do you think thats enough support for the Army in theatre to justify the rest of you?

I may not understand Air Power but if its not there in support it may as well not exist!!

The money may have been spent but I'm sure we could buy a few needed mine proof vehicles against the trade in value.

I may be pi$$ing you off a bit but you can bet people who can make a difference are asking the same questions. If you aren't bringing anything to the battle you had better start with a good explanation as to why you're still needed instead of dripping that the Army are stupid.
