Cameron's Tiffy Sales Pitch?

Is Cameron looking to run on production of the Typhoon to the extent of 100 aircraft? Or is he hoping to sell a chunk of the ones the R.A.F. have. It was suggested a month ago that the R.A.F. may retain all of its 160 aircraft ordered due to a failure to interest the U.A.E. in buying the 53 Tranche 1 aircraft, all of which are to be upgraded? possibly for R.A.F. use?

I wouldn't buy them. 'One careful owner.'

Good luck to him. Any sales are going to keep people in jobs and bring money into the country. I would love to see more here.

the longer he can keep the production line running the better - at the very least it keeps open some alternatives
