No Typhoons for Aghanistan?

Post by Firebird »

This weeks Flight International is reporting that although the expected deployment of 11 Sqn Typhoon FGR4s to Kandahar, in July, to replace the Harriers of the Royal Navy is still on track, there are indications from sources that in fact Tornados will replace the Harriers instead.

No reasons or speculation given.
