One thing that is cringeworthy is the obvious greed for carriers, any carriers, at any cost.

From what was initially shown as an multi aircraft type platform has been cut and cut back to little better that larger versions of the current crop!

No angled flight deck, no cats and very limited operational capability of it's designated aircraft type (go look at the carry backs for F35B vs F18G) for what??
Where is the intrinsic AEW that cost the RN so dear in '82?(oh yes sea kings, how old are they now??)

Do not attack other services whilst they are being bled dry to fund these ersatz capital ships.
