Re: North Sea Shipping Incident

Seen it reported that the Stena Immaculate was on contract to US Navy “Sealift Command” and that the aviation fuel on board was destined to be offloaded to an aircraft carrier! Report said that the Immaculate was anchored off of Immingham as a “temporary stop”, before routing further south!

Re: Potential RAF Typhoon Tranche 4 Order - 25 Aircraft

Just my opinion, but i think the present government will just stick with what we have already have and ordered! Personally, it also wouldn’t surprise me if the UK pulled out/scaled back in the “Tempest programme” stating that the money would be better spent elsewhere!! Also, having relatives that li...
