Scrapping the Harriers was a big mistake. I just hope we don't learn from the need to use such things in anger.

The fact that the US took them off our hands so readily and at such a low price, they were laughing all the way to the bank. - They will still be 'christmas-treeing' what they bought long after the F-35 is history.
