No RAF strike packages are being used over Afghanistan hence you can't use this Tornado excuse ;o) The RAF are providing air-to-air refuelling tanker aircraft in the form of VC-10 and L-1011 Tristar's. These probe-drogue tankers are exclusively being used for US Navy strike package refuellings going into/out of Afghanistan. RAF are also supplying Canberra PR.9s for electro-optical photo intelligence and Nimrod R.1 for electronic intelligence.
Hey!! I wasn't using the RAF excuse, I had blamed the lousy aim on the Air Force (versus the Navy/Marines) and got 'cautioned' by an apparent Air Force club member.
I think some hot stick rolled in on a target of opportunity and got pretty close.
Good enough for the leisure set ...
