Glypo,

You are correct, any weapons release from a UK military aeroplane has to have a human input into it (well, they did when I worked on them, not so sure about the Typhoon) but as for self defence mechanisms, that is another matter altogether!

The Jaguar Electronic Counter Measures pod was particularly good at overpowering TV transmissions if it was on when it flew over houses........
