I will soon outdo Bob10 onthese.
I think that this is particularly interesting as it gives lots of info on the specs of our original F18a , particularly how they were upgraded over time to be a formidable weapon.

Presumably the sale conditions include a prohibition on them being on-sold to our neighbours?

Words fail me. Imagine being a Government Department dealing with MR Kirlin... they'd be feeling somewhat insecure about making even a simple 'Request'.

You gotta love reversal of Authority ![biggrin][biggrin][biggrin][biggrin]

Have to wonder what Mr Kirlin paid for these castoffs. Fully armed castoffs, I might add.
