Not my budget, and in the end they get want they want, not necessarily what they need.

Glad to see they are equally as cockish to the Army as they are to us!

Trying to stop a 11/9 incident sounds like a lose/lose situation. Don't envy the pilots who would be tasked with trying to stop such an attack...

I thought the point was they are a lot smaller and can get nearer to the ground the in the built up areas of London... What do we fly that is that small and can carry six guys?
