What do you mean the C-17 isn't a warbird????? We've just designed a new device for a special mission to air-drop a piano on Saddam's head...
We are very proud of the C-17 over here, but don't forget that the UK has a significant number of suppliers providing parts to the program too. Congratulate yourself for that, and also the foresight the UK had to lease those four aircraft.

P.S. If you can cancel that pesky A400 project for me, I would be much obliged.
