Is it worth £200 million though?
The government are constantly moaning about money and we apparently don't have any but they're prepared to spend £200 million on each aircraft. If I remember correctly that is more than double the cost of a Typhoon and the feedback I'm getting from research, and having seen it myself in flight, is that it's a pretty bloody good bit of kit which acted well against being shot at in Op Ellamy and turns well. So is it really £120 million better than the Typhoon?
