Say what you like (and no doubt you will) but down here we've got a pretty pragmatic view about defence. Rather than run around banging a gong about how we used to rule the seas, we know we've got 5 million population and a limited defence budget. Primary requirements to provide some fishery protection and a lot of disaster relief and support to the local region. No need to try and show off to prove things. We're very good at actually doing what we do. How are your new carriers doing by the way?
