  1.  @thomscott1247  No, but we'll pay for keeping our own F/A-18s in the air, and going further, our own F-35s. Just out of interests, are you paying by the hour to keep the oh-so-many US warplanes flying in UK airspace?

  4.  @matiassam2507  That's what the Yanks thought in Vietnam, till they started retrofitting their fighters with guns and teaching dogfighting skills to their pilots.

  5.  @matiassam2507  You sound like a fanboi all right. Why fit modern fighters with short-range AA missiles if long-range BVR missiles exist? It's you that doesn't understand the inherent limitations of missile technology. Why does the F-35 still pack a gun? By the way, I worked on the Nokia 3310 and recently stopped working on Android smartphones. The latter contained half a dozen or so patents of mine.
