RAF Jaguars leave service after 33 years
« on: April 26, 2007, 10:57:44 AM »
The MOD announced that the RAF's ten remaining Jaguar aircraft will leave service after 33 years at the end of April 2007.

In July 2004 MOD announced the Jaguar would reach the end of its distinguished service during 2007. The ageing Jaguar is being replaced by the much more capable multi-role Typhoon aircraft, with the Tornado fleet taking on the bulk of the Jaguar's air-to-ground role.
