Scottish independence: Defence at risk?

Oh dear! I guess the carriers look a bit iffy! I wonder how much "special export tax" Salmond would levy on them?

After all of the "Defence Reviews" aka "Defence Cuts" already (Nimrod/F3s/GRs/Black Watch/Gordon Highlanders et al etc) I thought that a risk was already established courtesy of Westminster?

Love to ask the First Sea Lord if lack of an MPA worried him re protecting "his" Bombers...
