The RAF have TARDISs!

I was doing some research for my crossover story "Downtime". I decided that Jack needed to run into Stark before the "year that never was" arc in my ficverse (otherwise I was going to get a headache keeping track of things later) so I've got Jack flying into Edwards Air Force Base in a Panavia Tornado after seeing one on a History Channel program a few nights ago. When I looked up the GR4 version on Wikipedia-- which the RAF uses-- I found under the list of recent updates the following--

The BAE Systems Tornado Advanced Radar Display Information System (TARDIS) is an Active-matrix liquid crystal display.[8] [9] TARDIS is currently being fitted to aircraft of the Fast Jet and Weapons Operational Evaluation Unit (No. 41 Squadron RAF), before being fitted to all GR4

lol- I was amused.
