I have not seen this report but I have just seen a Facebook posting reporting this "discarding" of the Tiger and stating that [far from it being dumped with immediate effect] the type will be taken out of service "in the mid-2020s."
I know stuff stays in service for a long time these days but this is TEN years away...... and it has not actually happened yet anyway. It may not be popular because of a lack of spares provision but it isn't actually being thrown on the scrapheap as this thread suggests!
More a decision not to keep a type with a severely limited flexibility in role in extended service.
Or am I missing something?
