Discussion of the Hugh Grant Vs Ashley Graham interview really captures the split between our two countries. Man makes bone dry, acerbic comments, with references to classical literature, in response to bland questions. Accused of being rude by US voices, and iconic by UK ones.

The French air force now has as many A400Ms as the RAF.... Except they also have 28 more on order. Plus 16 C-130s and 27 CN-235s. Not so long ago the RAF's air transport fleet was the envy of our allies. Now, like everything else, a stunted and boutique force lacking mass.

What better way to start a new week than with a brand new #A400M ? We delivered the 22nd A400M to the French Air Force. 🇫🇷 This military transport aircraft adds essential capabilities to the French Air Force's fleet as was demonstrated during mission #PEGASE23 in the Indo-Pacific.

An interesting view heard at #DSEI2023 MoD should cancel Tempest/GCAP before it eats the defence budget. Instead should develop an "F-35UK" based on the proven airframe but add British content such as advanced radars, weapons and its own loyal wingman UAS. Affordable,

Cancelling GCAP / Tempest would be one of the greatest acts of self harm an advanced nation has even committed. In a single sweep we'd decimate our aerospace industry and cost the North West countless highly skilled/paid jobs. That's before considering the foreign policy shame.
