JD from the last post and your previous ones you come across as a keen spotter with no Mil aviation background? As welcome as your opinions are they seem very uninformed, there is a world of difference between reading an article in a magazine, on a blog or Wikipedia and knowing what you are talking about and I don't think you know what you are talking about.
I'm not trying to be offensive towards you, but I think your last post was wrong and you are trying to connect the wrong dots with ones that don't exist, MRA4 had issues but your points are fantasy. I'm sure in years to come someone will write a definitive book on the project, but many of the details will not come out until people have retired.
Conversely I
concur with Tallsar, but I also think the latest Government have made a serious error, possibly on poor advice from their SME
