According to freedom-of-information reports, cited by the British tabloid the Daily Mirror, 142 of the RAF\'s 434 aircraft have been taken off the flight line or are undergoing major maintenance.

That includes advanced aircraft like the Typhoon — 55 of the RAF\'s 156 Typhoons are in the service\'s sustainment fleet and not its forward fleet. A variety of other aircraft are also affected.

Of the RAF\'s 20 Atlas A400M transport planes, which started arriving in 2014, five are in the sustainment fleet. Out of 81 Hawk T1 jets, which are used by trainee pilots as well as the Red Arrow aerobatics display team, 44 are in storage or going through maintenance.

Two of five Sentinel spy planes have been pulled from the flightline. Three of six Sentry spy planes have been moved to sustainment. One of three Air Seeker surveillance and electronic-warfare planes has been moved out of the forward fleet. Four of eight Shadow electronic-warfare planes have been moved into sustainment.


Forty-one of 60 Chinook helicopters have been switched from the forward fleet to sustainment, and seven of 23 Puma helicopters are in sustainment.

None of the the RAFs four BAe 146 planes, which are used to transport the Royal family and senior government officials, and none of its F-35Bs have been moved to sustainment — the only aircraft types for which that is the case.

The report elicited quick responses from the political opposition in the UK, which decried what appeared to be an erosion of British military prowess and criticized the current Conservative government for austerity and budget cuts that had affected defense spending.


\"On serviceability rates, the RAF is well within the top cohort of air forces around the world,\" Bronk said.

\"Modern combat aircraft are complex and maintenance intensive to operate,\" Bronk said, adding that \"a regular deep maintenance/upgrade cycle for each airframe\" is a standard fleet-management practice around the world.

Having 55 of the service\'s 156 Typhoons in sustainment is normal, Bronk added, \"and actually better than most comparable fleets in NATO and elsewhere.\"
