That jet looks very slick. Nice purchase.
Leading a jet for that length of time makes no sense as the gov would be required to sign up to the leasing company maintenance reserves agreements which the air corps can do in house.
Plus, I don’t think any of the leasing companies here lease jets. It’s traditionally narrow/wide body aircraft.

“The military radar programme comprises three parts. There will be a long range, land-based radar, a ship-borne maritime radar and ground-based air defence systems, which will include counter-drone technology.”
Good to hear. At least we didn’t buy from the US – i don’t want any ‘kill switches’ that Trump or another future lunatic President can disable.

Half a billion. One radar system. What a waste of money.
Buy Chinese for half the price, and cutting edge.

Now that we have gone and bought the fancy branded one from France what’s the bets that there will be a perfectly usable generic knockoff Specialbuy, in the center aisle of Aldi come Thursday, for a mere 150 million Euros. Always feckin happens.
