Hey the Americans are going back to using celestial navigation so in the spirit of "what is old is new again", the MOD are sure that the very best of British made 1950's Radar technology represents the best way forward for future RAF capabilities.....

The house in Upper Snodonia does not have a TV Licence. Send in the F-15's through the Mach Loop to scare them to pay up...

Hello, you are through to the Help Desk. Please tell us what your problem is so we can give you fatuous advice, telling you to try all the things you have already tried, while you solve the problem yourself. Then tell us how you did it so we can chalk up another success.

Just to let you know chaps, there's now nearly 5 pages about you on the current capcom, and Nutloose will have to read everyone of them. That'll teach him.

What does this do then?
It's the latest in British radar technology, a ground intruder defence system.
Sounds very technical, how does it work?
The radar detects an intruder, the weapon hatch cover springs open, and a pre-loaded slingshot fires a ball-bearing at the intruder. This is the twin launcher version.
My my, what amazing times we live in.

Wouldn't it be easier if we just got a charcoal barbecue to cook sausages for the club summer party like everybody else?

Taps the dial, looks quizzingly, taps and declares the device is U/S...
I mean according to this dial that RAF Jet that screamed over converting fuel to noise was only doing 37 mph. .
I mean nothing can fly THAT slowly. ..

I'm sure the plans were for a " Archemedes Death Ray " utilising the power of the Sun to incinerate the enemy fleet.
Well we adapted it for the British Weather

"I call it a helicopter. It should fly straight up in the air when the thing at the top is spinning fast enough."

Okay -- the power's disconnected. You can start taking it apart.

I can't believe we did all that work just to watch Arsenal lose 0-5.
