There has been a bit of discussion on this on 'pprune' a while back, with those that obviously knew refraining from posting anything. Those in the RAF at the time saw the BOE report but as it was an in-service mil a/c there is no public accident report IIRC, and so it's on a 'need to know' only basis for type operation.
