Pity we didn't go down the F18F route many, many years ago & then the country could have a single fast jet fleet.
Yes, yes. What a pity. What a pity we didn't end up with one inferior aeroplane, rather than having better than the Super Hornet in service today, while looking forward to JSF tomorrow.
Perhaps we should have standardised on the MiG-29 or some other outdated, outclassed heap?
