Ep 04: Evolution of Fast Jet Ground Attack

Thirty years ago this month, former RAF Tornado navigator John Nichol was being held as a prisoner of war in an Iraqi jail. His aircraft had been shot down following a low-level ground attack.

In this extended and remotely recorded episode, John meets F-35 Lightning pilot, Flight Lieutenant Bally, to hear how RAF ground attack has changed since then.

Also in this episode is 'Reheat'; a catch up on RAF news you may have missed and 'Name That Noise'.
