Quick thread drift -

SHAR
1982
1435 sorties , 20 (+3) kills, 6 lost

Not bad for a "Maybe Fighter"
There is no denying the superb effort and results obtained by the FRS1 in 1982, but......... how much was down to the platform and how much was down to the weapons and drivers?

Would they have achieved similar results in contemporary aircraft types or opposition types like Mirage III/V or A-4?
