Bu@@er the Typhoon - get more Air Defence Variant Tristars
From March 2006 'Soldier' magazine, page 18:
When the air bridge works, it is a highly efficient transport service, taking soldiers thousands of miles quickly and efficiently in comfort. 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. CC (yes, I know, need to concentrate on work and not read the Soldier Magazine!). |
Why should they want some Dangerous Air Cargo? :O
|
Well if you can fit Sidewinder to Nimrods...
|
Wonder if they need any (ex) QWIs to teach Hi Yo-Yos on the Tristar OCU?
|
I heard they were looking for someone to teach them all sorts of Yo-Yo tricks, Max. Can you do 'the cradle'?

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!!

Soiled Glove you know nothing ....
A war fit F3 couldn't even get to Angels 30. |

PS 4F - Sidewinders are sooolast century
including the AIM 9X ! |
ok, I s'pose that one's alright Max! Ours toy is better though, if only we had it on all the pointy fleets, and were able to expoit it properly...
You care less about turn circles when looking through a HMS. :( (Not the boat kind!) |
Will a Q jet launch be done in less than 2 hours, or will the movers still get all that time to get those pax thru the terminal.

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........ :hmm:
|
Tri*
We are talking about the aircraft that can slow down or descend but not both?

Sidewinders are sooolast century including the AIM 9X ! |
