Ah, the old 'NGS is best' argument. Ever since a couple of T23s and an ANZAC lobbed some shells at Al Faw we have wound ourselves around the axles about NGS and maybe getting a bigger 155mm gun on the front end. Now I am the first bloke to want to have more toys but why bother going to all the hassle for a few extra kms of range? One squadron of F-18s with JDAMs or a flight of GR9s with E-Paveways will do way more damage for much less bucks. Keep the good old 4.5", get some more ammo (maybe some ERGM to keep the techno-weenies at BAE in a job) and let the RAF worry about deep penetration from a Host Nation Support airfield...............(tees the ball up, waiting for WEBF to smack it)
