It's good to see our home-designed jets back in the pipeline again: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-44848294

I hope I'm wrong, but I can't see it happening. My bet is we'll buy 'off the peg' as we have in the past. - Look at the Nimrod fiasco, and if you want to go further back, take a look at TSR2.

I might be wrong, but I think the last aircraft we designed and built on our own was the BAe Hawk.
