    We retire ours, but there's still around 150 harriers in service worldwide
    US, Spain, Italy will still fly theirs

    As per usual we'll retire something and not replace it with something that can do the job as well or better but just something thats cheaper and can be used for more stuff..
    Makes sence financially but not strategically..
