First MRA4 Ready for Training
1Comments
The first of the planned Nimrod MRA4′s have been handed over to the RAF to begin crew training.
This is the first of 9 ordered but won’t be in full service until 2012 as the whole project has been slowed down to save money. The original order was for 21 aircraft but this has been continually whittled down.
As the MR2′s are being withdrawn by the end of this month lets hope we don’t have cause to need a long range maritime attack and recce aircraft, you know, like somewhere down South
