the IDS was rarely an ornament ...

the F2s with 'blue circle' were a bit of an ornament ... but the f3 did what it was supposed to

Why is every jet, a 'fighter jet' to the retards in the press!

The F3 was the ADV or Air Defence Variant, aka (rather sarcastically) the Air Display Variant.

Because it looks small compared with a B52 which is a bomber

I like fighters and bombers, you know where you are. Now you just have one-size-fits-all.

[Eric Mc]

It's GR1 which was technically a bomber, not a fighter.

As for "restored" - it seems to be missing a few key bits.

the F2 was was also the ADV but delivered with 'blue circle' rather than Foxhunter hence the disparaging comments aobut the utility of single stick F2s
