I say good riddance to another PoS from BWoS. Let's face it, it was going to be unsafe botch job and I really hope that the way the MRA4 Project was (mis)managed comes under serious scrutiny.
I hope that the Govt's decision has saved the lives of some of our aircrew and that a sensible alternative is found in the near future; maybe the best thing to come from the MRA4 will be the kit from inside that is now residing in the P-8 MMA?
Here's hoping, eh? Maybe a reprieve for KIS in a couple of years time?
Nimrod AEW and Nimrod MRA4 - hopefully, we will learn 3rd time around!
