Coming to a USA near you.
So true. We are about to be left with a swarm of silly littoral “combat” ships, a carrier fleet that is mostly offline for put off maintenance and by lack of wings to deploy on them, and a fleet of short legged, low payload, helpless F-35s.
Today the Japanese or Indian navy could literally destroy the RN in an afternoon.
And like us, the RN suffers from something worse. The Brit sailors who were captured within -sight- of their mother warship and came home wearing burkas. Our sailors who surrendered to the Iranians and acted submissive.
We have both lost the spirit of naval combat such as the Battle of Samar.
