Here are the sums:

Stay to 60 as a Regular on AFPS75 and get £29k pension £87k lump sum

Leave and get £23k pension £69k lump immediately go FTRS and then at 60 get a further £12k (or £8k pension plus £51k lump sum). So get an extra £6k of pension, or get an extra £2k pension plus an extra £33k lump sum. If I leave at 58yrs I woukd get £7k added to my pension making me £1k a year better off and retiring 2 years earlier. FTRS still get a disability pension if the injury is Service attributable.

What am I missing? Or for once is there a good deal to be had?
