@FUDdaily due to the extra crash seating i think it can only carry 4 people ,,,,, my view replace it with the NHH they just ordered save the RAF finding aircrew etc
@JimmySecUK a better replacement is coming and cheaper to build those instead of restarting production. also the replacement will be able to be fired from aircraft and ships have a land attack role, anti ship role and home in on radar signals.
@jeremycorbyn the stronger our millitry the more chance of stopping wars ..... the old ark royal stopped one war in the 70's and if she had been in service in 82 the falklands would have never happened
@Justin_Br0nk@NavyLookout does your thinking include buying different spare parts ? also you cant really train with the A model for the B due to the flight limits being different even the landing speeds due to different landing gear etc etc

Well in the case of the RN/RFA, since he became PM, they've withdrawn 4xFF, 2xLPD, 1xMCMV & 2xAO, whilst not ordering a single new ship or critically needed dry dock.
@InspGadgetBlogs the Vangaurd class are struggling and looks like the dreadnoughts going to to very late into service lets just hope they order two badly needed floating dry docks
