Carried out with domestic airplanes. If they shot down a plane or any kind, even a drone, helicopter, etc. it might make sense, but the distances within the city, with skyscrapers, etc., it will be a disaster if they miss the target. The last attack in Munich was carried out by gunmen years ago. This sounds like an accident waiting to happen with all that firepower. Maybe someone in the RAF could explain, or has heard an explanation.
