Mr Smith, actually DC did say "Typhoons" in Afghanistan, I even recall my reaction upon hearing it (spilled coffee everywhere).

Could you please explain your comments below:

Surely the bottom line on this stupidity is that the Harrier mission availability in Afghanistan was 95 per cent while the Tornado mission availability is 50 per cent.
What was the source of your information, did you substantiate those claims before posting them here bearing in mind the Hansard quotes above or are you really, along with being a journalist, a sciolist too and hence a likely troll and worthy of being banned from this place?
