I believe the Falklands should not be used as a benchmark of our overall defence capability.

However, the lesson we should have learned there was that look down radar is mandatory.

Factor that in to the theatre in Afghanistan & the role of the 'drones' doesn't seem to be included in the 'review' - why not?
