Smoke and a pancake
"What are you smoking? Jag and AD are about as compatible as F3 and agile fighter".
Well 1st off did I mention Fighter? No the comment was AD as a role. That was in the days when the threat to the UK was big non agile aircraft such as the Bear, Blinder. A pair of 30mm and winders would do a lot of damage to one of those aircraft. Other aircraft with the AD role in a wartime case would have been Hawk 1 less 30mm and no RHWR and Hunter 4 x 30mm but no winders.
can't remember if the TWCU Hunters had RHWR
As for runways not big enough, and Typhoon only forces. Stop thinking as the government wants you to do. Build a long enough runway, buy the aircraft/weapons you need to do the job. Or as CAS refuse to do the job and offer your resignation.
