The purpose of the RAF is to project power on the behalf of the American Empire (and let's be real, if any thought is given to actual defense of Britain, it's only if it would not too costly to implement as a dual-capability). The blowback potential alone is more of a real threat to the average Briton, and the military spending is an actual theft from them. If every RAF airplane was blown up tomorrow, the UK would probably become measurably safer and richer.
