Referring to 2012, hope they'll consider AD assets such asTyphoon Tranche 3 on QRA, as what the Italians did during the winter olympics, where there was all the rotary and fixxed wing assets of the Guardia di Finanza, carabinieri, Polizia de Stato, plus think Sentry from Waddington (?),AMI, Marina and Esercito including first CAP for the Eurofighter. Oh and don't forget an orbiting satellite dedicated to surveillance.


Thats a point why the GR4? I suppose with the self defence AIM-9L or if they be equipped with ASRAAM, then some limited CAP capability.
