Aircraft Delta (Its all about the numbers….)

10/25 The RAF’s combat aircraft dropped XX% (210 to 139), per MoD stats, reducing sortie capacity. C-17s (4 to 8) and A400Ms enhance airlift, but fewer tactical transports (25 to 22) and AEW aircraft (7 to 3, delayed) limit capability. P-8As and RC-135Ws upgrade ISR, but retired Sentinel R1 and fewer maritime patrol aircraft weaken coverage.
