What did the RAF plan for air defence in the 70s/80s before the Phantom was ordered? It was ordered in place of the P1154, which in RAF was intended as a ground attack/strike aircraft (Hunter replacement) so presumably in that (post Sandys) era, the RAF must have been planning something to replace the Lightning?
