But they would have accepted SR177 if it made it to production, they put a lot of effort into building support for it into Eagle and Victorious.. and I have never seen anything about it being a two seater. This is why I said I was positioning the ST as an SR fallback. The UK budgeted 50 mil to mod the phantom, they could have built a carrier capable of handling unmodified ones for that.. this is why I refer to this period of the RN as the "WTF?" era. Between the rebuild of the Audacious' and the modification to Phantom to fly off of them we are talking 160+ million..
