I still can't believe the huge waste of taxpayers money over a couple of spare standard A330 wheels.
The Voyager is joint mil/civilian registered and there are many spares and suitable qualified personnel in the immediate area to fit them. You don't need your own military engineers to do the work.
If BA flew a Hercules to the Gulf every time an aircraft tyre burst!!!
