Properly designed, aircrew specific pattern FR MTP for use in both UK, ex and ops would be excellent. The current nondescript, dehydrated-urine-alike FR CS95, whilst looking like a bag'o'****e is nonetheless far more comfortable and practical than flying suits.

Desert flying suits will however still be required so the GR kids will have something to change into for hanging out in at the DFAC... Hilarious work fellas, keep it up.

As an aside, perhaps CAM and the PTs could spend a little less time equipping the non-deployable Typhoon ladies with gold plated survival gear and toss a few bones in the direction of the SH and Tac AT fleets?
