Bu@@er the Typhoon - get more Air Defence Variant Tristars
From March 2006 'Soldier' magazine, page 18:
CC (yes, I know, need to concentrate on work and not read the Soldier Magazine!).
When the air bridge works, it is a highly efficient transport service, taking soldiers thousands of miles quickly and efficiently in comfort.
While there are inevitiable frustrations when the system breaks down, the introduction of more TriStars with air-defence capabilities in the future is set to go some way to alleviating the difficulties.
Praise indeed, however would the self-loading freight enjoy a quick bout of DAC?While there are inevitiable frustrations when the system breaks down, the introduction of more TriStars with air-defence capabilities in the future is set to go some way to alleviating the difficulties.

Given the Tri* has got a better turning circle than a war-fit F3 at 30000ft, can stay on CAP longer, has better comms and you can drink tea/coffee while waiting for the bad guys to come over the horizon - it gets my vote!!

You care less about turn circles when looking through a HMS.
(Not the boat kind!)

Suspicion breeds confidence
A war fit F3 couldn't even get to Angels 30.
Ecce Homo! Loquitur...
Had a Tommy provide a high level subsonic target for an F3 VID sortie when the planned target cancelled. Asked him to come in as high as he could, then had to ask him to descend........
