Interesting. Seems that a few years ago, they were mothballing equipment due to money shortages.

Yes, I’m sure everyone is scared to death.

Great.
Another weapon soon to be in the hands of the future Emir of Britianstan.

Perhaps the headline is correct. The PROBLEM will be this: Britain is rapidly surrendering to Islam, which means MULLAHS will be in charge of these warships.

Which means Britain’s military is one missile-strike away from being crippled.

Save some money; make them half-vast.

Well, at least they LOOK like a warship. They’re not using that hideous back-sloped bow like some of the new American boats.

What aircraft will they fly from these carriers?
Seems like I heard the F-35 was their choice but wasn't available yet.

Excellent Ships.
I hope the Dual Tower Design Works out well.

They won’t stop the muslims from taking over Britain from within.

But isn’t the age of the aircraft carrier coming to an end?

These are about 2/3 size of our Nimitz Class Carriers.

How sad this is! This is EXACTLY the attitude the English had about their ships before World War I - and they got their butts kicked not on sea, but on land.
Meanwhile, they are turning their country into Britanistan.

I think these things are sitting ducks for the newer (and even the last) generation of anti-ship missiles. You read about some of the ones the Chinese claim to have (Mach 10) and it’s rather sobering. And they are massively expensive to build & operate.
Of course, Britain has no known history of overbelieving in its ships.
To: sukhoi-30mki
Too late. The invasion has already taken place.

Optimism on this thread, I find none.

That’s a cute little boat.

Is someone threatening to start a war with the UK? The only enemy I can see is moslems flooding in. I see no nation state that is going to attack them.
The internal moslems are about to inherit the whole country.
Ergo, the world is safer with no Brit carrier.
