yep they are still there as is the sea vixen nosecone and at least 2 bloodhounds plus a couple of APC’s for good measure

try getting them officially you’ll have your work cut out, best contact OC bomb disposal at wittering as they are his play toys

The Bomb Disposal School moved from Wittering some time ago.They are now at RAF North Luffenham with their parent unit being RAF Marham.

Grauniad report on cuts and the potential early retirement.

If this does come to pass is it wise just relying on the Typhoon for all fast jet operations? But then if the pilots aren’t being trained any more and there are going to be no more back seaters trained it all now makes sense.

Could this mean the return of the Harrier or is that just me being too wildly optimistic?

Not to mention that over half the weapons in use by Tornado are not,as I gather from a mate on 6sqn,not fully integrated as yet into Typhoon.As to the Harriers,I believe they are currently in warm storage in case they are sold or returned to service.However,if they do return to service,ConDem’s will be left with a shedload of egg on their face!
