Indeed the RAF could equip their new fighters with a canvas and balsawood contraption on top to contain this new GPS.
Let's hope it doesn't change the aerodynamic qualities of the plane too much.Hard Brexit now!

- we’ve successfully reduced the freedom of movement of our own scientists, so that they can concentrate on innovative jam recipes instead of world class science.Comment
