Brits to Buy 2 Kick-Ass Carriers

Yeah, they finally came to their senses......25 yrs after the Falklands lesson. Unfortunately, I dunno where they are gonna get the pilots for the F-35B VSTOL fighters; they FOOLISHLY retired all the Sea Harriers to save money. I guess the naval aviators are all flying simulators to stay current.

The RN is desperately short on ships and funds now, and they are gonna have another nasty surprise like the Falklands (somewhere) if they don't get some naval air (besides RAF Harriers that have no radar or BVR capability) back in service.

It will be nice to see the RN take its place back among the world class navies of the world. Even the French have a fairly big CVN with Rafales on board, and India has a former soviet CV with Mig 29s. You gotta have a flight deck if you gonna have a sea going navy.
