    If you are an American please read the details of how this came about and you will see it wasn’t the fault of Somalis nor the us soldiers but 100% on us/UN politicians. The same lady that was assigned to Iraq during the Iran-Iraq war was also assigned here. They absolutely did not want peace in Somalia. Aided even invited us reps to for peace talks but they were insistent on shutting down radio Mogadishu and were aggressive throughout the whole time only after aideed defended himself did they come to their senses. All this could have been avoided

    No not really. BAE was instrumental in development and is critical to construction and assembly of F-35 family, all variants, especcially B. RNFAA and RAF F-35B is not identical to USMC F-35B. Avionics, communications, weapons, differ on UK variant of F-35B. American variants use British components. Its too complex and expensive to develop aircraft for 21'st Century. UK cannot go it alone. Even back in 1970's UK cooperated with French on SEPECAT Jaguar, and with Germans and Italians on Tornado. F-4K, the RNFAA variant of F-4, had British RR Spey motors instead of American engines. Today if UK would properly fund Royal Navy and RNFAA, the two UK carriers would be CATOBAR operating mix of F-35C and F-35B. But that is not to be. Blame the successive Torey and Labour administrations for criminally underfunding UK MOD, and leaving EU. But that is who British people elect.

    Born in 1975, i grew up with this airplane at Naval Air Base Jagel, the Marinefliegeschwader 1, Flying in simulator training in 1993! Not for military service, but for a box of beer!-)) Tornado is still a very efficient airplane, that is obedient to its rules in air warfare! If your plan is right, the mission will be flown and executed by Tornado IDS Mk 1 or Mk 4, ECR, Asstra and so on...."The Platform is very stabil" (Nils Meister)

    So basically once again the media has spun the history to deny Americans a more objective view of the historical events and their contexts. The report completely neglected the various attacks on Somalis made by American and UN contingents in June and July of 1993, in particular the "Bloody Monday" Raid on July 12, 1993. The US DoD officially reported using attack helicopters to kill 20 or fewer armed males attending a meeting in a building when many more Somalis from many factions reported that clan leaders, sheiks, intellectuals, poets, and many more luminaries of Somalia had met in that building to discuss peace terms and anywhere from 80 to 200 were slaughtered by the helicopter gunfire, including women and children. The attack caused so much outrage that four western journalists immediately reporting at the site of the attack were brutally murdered by Somalis in retribution. Authors and journalists called the "Bloody Monday" Raid the true turning point for many Somalis in their view of the American presence.

    Over budget it may have been - but I can't help but think (beyond the politics of Jenkins, Mountbatten and many others) that the budget argument was so short sighted. As Beamont said, the aircraft had the potential to be continuously updated, particularly as technology ensured equipment became smaller. Thus the government would have got incredible value for money from a multi role aircraft that would have been in service for a very long time. The F111 scenario is also extraordinary - government climbing into bed with another high tech (and this time swing wing!) aircraft still being developed, with spiraling costs that resulted in cancellation appears to be a good example of TSR2 events repeating themselves. Farcical.

  • @michaeledwards2251

    The main value of the TSR2 would have been as a testbed for prolonged Mach 2 flight. The Concorde suffered from the lack of a prior testbed (a) Concorde was forced to use high take off and landing speeds due to the lack of compressor air blown wings, allowing high angles of attack, with much lower take off and landing speeds. (b) Supersonic boom neutralization : TSR2 would have been a suitably sized testbed. (c) Once Mach 2 flight was developed, Mach 4 would be the next step, allowing Trans Pacific range.

    The Tuskegee Airmen project was a political stunt by the liberal Roosevelt Administration. It was very important to them that the program be a success and because of that it was very carefully managed. The last thing that the Administration wanted was to have these political pawns used as war fodder. That's why they operated in the less dangerous Mediterranean area instead of up North where White men were expendable and flying into the teeth of the German's still undepleted defenses.

    Well it all looks like fun but that was far from the truth. We were on Beira Patrol, 3 months non stop at sea. It wasn't voluntary they sent the Regulating Staff down the messes and cleared everyone out to get up on the Flightdeck. For many that meant loss of sleep off watch when needed most, we worked 4 hours on watch then 4 hiurs off in the Enginerooms.. I had a broken big toe in a cast and made to wear flip flops and do the PT. Needless and thoughtless.

Occupiers and invaders, especially former Western coloniser are not needed on our Mother land , AFRICA !!!!!!! USA military should simply leave IRAK, SYRIA, LIBYA and other middle East or African countries who don't want them on their soil !!!!!!!!! If African countries don't have military bases in the USA, FRANCE , etc...why the latter would impose or force their military bases in Africa ???? Neo-colonialism is over, please !!!!!!!!

    Of coursei it's impossible not to admire Roly Beamont. But some of the received opinion and consensus around the TSR2 goes largely unquestioned and unchallenged. The F111 conspiracy theory is not exactly replete with evidence (although the complete destruction of the airframes and tooling is very odd). And his point about the Falklands seems mildly unhinged.
