...they are not getting probe and drogue refuelling...
So how will the RAF attempt to refuel its own aircraft in flight?

I recommended to the ShabbyWood FSTA mob years ago that at least the boom option should be considered. But no, MoD assured them that the RAF would 'never' have a boom-only receiver.

Memo to MoD: "Never say never!".
