Tend to agree with you NEye, but they are certainly doing something with the ship at the minute. As you say though, one suspects in a warfighting situation a salvo of ADCAP would be the end result.

For anyone interested, this is what happened to the last South American Carrier to go out of service, ex HMS Vengeance, ex Minas Gerais of the Brazilian navy. There was a half-@rsed attempt to save her (the last RN carrier afloat to have served in WW2 - albeit briefly), but as you can see it came to naught. Hope the equivalent doesn't happen to XH558.
