GOGARI, UIRI - Today Uir President David Aposon announced the calling of a press conference on a very important issue regarding Defence of the country. Foreign press covered the event and professional translators translated his statements into English.

"Today, on the First Day of the First Month in the 2008th Year of the Lord, I am announcing a tremendous step forward in our air force. I am calling a complete phase-out of all of our EuroCopter Tigers used as Fighter Aircraft. We shall be changing them for Dassault Rafales immediatetly. They are faster and more effecient and in being so will serve our country better," announced the President.

"When we send in fighter aircraft we want them to be able to fight," commented the Uir Air Force's General.

For a long time critics have been criticizing the use of helicopters for fighter aircraft. While they will still be used for transportation, serve the military they will no more and many people are praising this step towards modern aircraft.

The chief bombers of Uiri are MiG-27's which are old. While this isn't replacing them it is certainly in that direction.

Bumpity although this will probably be the only BUMP I do. Not that important, just want to see if anyone has any re-actions.
