Most likely candidates: Grob G120TP Pilatus PC-7Mk.X PC-21 T-6 etc. might be to large. As scramble (article) mentioned before. Da20 SR22 etc to small and not acrobatic e...

Re: Dutch PC-7 replacement
The letter says a joint purchase is not possible due to different timelines in other countries.

I think bringing down an (unmanned) aircraft with fuel, a gun a missile or tipping over is all the same. You destroy someone's other aircraft I don't think it is definated it has to be by gun or missile. And Germany and UK were at war. So UK had every right to destroy the V1s. And what if the Flanke...

Re: RNLAF buys G.650
Okay V-117
But the presentation of the serial looks a bit odd.
Small and the 7 is different from other 7s of eg. F-16, (J-017) AH-64 (Q-17) CH-47 (D-667) normally the 7 ends under the horizontal part of the 7.

Are these six D-66x Chinooks?
One D-66x went to the NNM at Soesterberg?
The four D-10x were sold already to USA before I thought.

So both the Tiger and the NH.90 are going, that's a firm goodbye to Airbus in Australia :-S With the NH.90 problems in Norway, Sweden and Belgium, the helicopter section of Airbus is taking a hit.

Roma (Italy) Stadio Olympico
To day watched a great rugby match Italy Ireland.at the Stadio Olympico in Rome.
At grounds around the stadium also some stands of different law and enforcement agencies. Including one of the Air force. Next to the stand the cockpitsection of an AMX
M.M.7179 51-64 on a pallet.
Nice.

Re: 2023: H135s bought to replace Army Gazelle helicopters in Northern Ireland Ulster mothballed....
Any idea which aircraft (serials) this is about? I only know about the Juno HT.1s that are used at Shawbury. Would seem logical they are used to supplement the fleet there anyway. These 5 helicopters don’t have military serials allocated yet. They’re registered as G-CMIR, G-CMIS, G-CMIT, G-CMIU, G,...
