Libya No Fly Zone?

A gradual pressure increase for Gadaffi to leave, with "military action" not being ruled out.

That probably means a no fly zone, no doubt US enforced. Be interesting to see what Britain can add to that, no carrier for a (token) Harrier presence, RAF from Malta too with Tornado or Eurofighter?

But a great illustration of the needing to have a balance in defence, as you can never predict the future threat precisely (despite all the projective studies all the defence organisations must get funding for).
