2. A good compilation - but ...
starting from section h it gets thin.

To repeat it again and again: wargames are exercises. It is as simple as that. There are interceptors in QRA status, so ready for action.

And there are fighter jets
- in repair
- in wargames
- in training for pilots
- transferred to Iraq
and so on.

action is the mission of the QRA- deseigned interceptors. There is no misunderstanding between action and exercise. Nowhere in the military. This is like the bible : necessary to survive.

Conclusion: forget about ALL wargames. they are not at all important. They canot confuse anything except non-military readers.

The only question is: where were the fighters designed for air-policing. And not: where were other fighters which COULD have been in place if they WERE switched into a real mission if they MIGHT have had weapons.

Do not confuse the two issues. There are others willing and able to confuse the public.

And Jack: you know I have BEST advice to be able to write that.
