On the Radio News this afternoon... "we'll have fighter jets and surface to air missiles".

Hang on, what SAMs? Or do we bring in Patriot because only the US Army could ever invent the ROE to do anything. So we'll have our Typhoons and US Patriot. Make sure the Mode 4 works!

Look up the last thread about this and you will see the Dark Blue and Brown correctly state that the British Armed Forces do in fact have Surface to Air Guided Weapons, without getting anything off the forces of another nation. Ok with the exception of the remaining Sea Darts, they have as much chance of stopping an airliner as that of a firework!!
