Froggie carrier
One answer to that. If it is so good, why did the froggies pay money up front to look at and use the RNs CVF design?
Whilst a very good ship, the CdG is expensive to build and run (requiring a 24 hour nuclear watch system) and is compromised because it utilises submarine reactors on a surface ship. It is also too small.
Also don't believe all this bull about the CVF costing more that a US CVN.
It's a very big IF, but IF this project is managed well and comes in on budget the UK will have done very well thankyou very much.
