OK, I'll bite...what you up to XV148? And, more importantly, how can we help?
FWIW I think everything to do with the AEW is in public record somewhere. There were some heavy duty audits after that Nimrod AEW fiasco which resulted in change (lol) to how the MOD did procurement.
If this is serious research you are on, I would wade into the National Audit Office and see what they have on it. They might not have been around circa 1980, but they might be able to give you a steer. There was also a Panorama documentary on the AEW (back in the day when Panorama had some credibility).
