AGM-65 Maverick - RAF service?

Gents,

lots of sources, the RAF among them, say that AGM-65 was/is both a 'rated' weapon cleared for use on RAF Harriers and RAF Tornado's and an actual, bought and used weapon in RAF service - yet i've never seen/heard of one being used by the RAF despite all the opportunities that the last 10 years of aggressive camping holidays in the sun have provided.

can the assembled brains trust clear this up - was AGM-65 ever really in RAF service in the same way as Sea Eagle, ALARM, BL775 etc.. whats the current state, and has it ever been used in anger by the RAF?
