English Military Humor
Two members of the British Lothian and Borders traffic police were
out on the Berwickshire moors with a radar gun recently, happily
engaged in apprehending speeding motorists, when their equipment
suddenly locked-up completely with an unexpected reading of well
over 100 mph.
The mystery was explained seconds later as a low flying Harrier
hurtled over their heads. The boys in blue, upset at the damage
to their radar gun, put in a complaint to the RAF, but were somewhat
chastened when the RAF pointed out that the damage might well have
been more severe.
It seems that the Harrier's target-seeker had locked onto the
'enemy' radar and triggered an automatic retaliatory air-to-surface
missile attack. Luckily, the Harrier was operating unarmed.
Otherwise... "Gee Officer, sorry about your patrol car........"
