Although in my fantasy four carrier fleet there would be additional Apaches for a dedicated CHF squadron, I was trying to make a serious point. The Lightning squadrons will not be single service viz 617's RN CO. I just think that, as Apaches are intented to be deployed on the CVs as part of their role; a purple element in the force to assist the AAC in being able to adapt to RN doctrines and methods makes sense. By constantly working alongside colleagues from a naval background would it not make the deployments easier and more efficient?
