Mongoose Old Bear said:I hope not. UCAVs may be practical but there's precious little romance left in war as it is. The dashing fighter pilot may be the last of the 'knights' and it would be a shame to lose him.
Not sure what the RN propose to do about the F-35K? they are supposed to get as some bright spark at MOD has worked out that the aircraft is to heavy as it stands for the proposed length of flight deck on the two future carriers the RN is supposed to be getting.
They considered 'Spitfire' for it...
