HMS Illustrious may be an LPH, but she carries 12 Harrier jump jets. No longer.
Just before Xmas, the Royal Navy sold all of their Harriers to the US Marine Corps.

The Muses, still with freedom found,
Shall to thy happy coast repair;
Blest Isle! With matchless beauty crown'd,
And manly hearts to guard the fair.
"Rule, Britannia! rule the waves:
"Britons never will be slaves."
James Thomson's corpse must have committed suicide.
