I agree that a certain contractor(BAE) has been screwing the MOD for many years and its products are crap. MRA4 is outstanding because of the Kit (none of which is British) and crew (parentage debatable) that is inside the jet and not the airframe, although I must admit to a bit of a semi whenever I see it ! Blue roll to the Tac area please!
I believe that there is a genuine need for a public enquiry into BAEs behaviour WRT defence contracts.
When I speak of contract cancellation penalties, I am talking about companies that have honoured their obligations in terms of deliverables and support. MRA4 is not one contract and one company it is many companies,many decent people and many innocent families.
Yes we have a right to get pissed of with one company but we can not,in a fit of anger, take it out on innocent parties because someone who has been in post for a few months wants to make his mark without knowing all the facts.
Regards
