gr4techie, I was really thinking of the Government going down one path with fossil fuel provision withering on the branch. Where the Services, particularly the RAF, were at the bleeding edge of technology with English Electric, Bristol, Saunder Roe, Supermarine, Avro etc, now we are leaders in historics - Red Arrows, BBMF, Tornado etc.
Of course when it came to MT things were very different - Standard Vanguard, Minis, Montego, Vauxhall
It was really would the Military be left a legacy users of fossil fuels or how could they cope. Certainly, on a main base, at a stroke, the whole lot could be switched to electric vehicles. Could power sets also be reverted to trolley ac style?
