Trouble is WeB we'll have to use a significant amount of what we have in one place to protect the Carrier.........
and unless we buy more non-Carrier units that means we'll have a far more concentrated Navy than we currently have.............
Most, if not all, of the work the T45's and T26's will do is NOT high intensity warfare against a major power - it;s being in the FI, the Gulf, the Med and the N Sea ... and all at the same time...........
