Since my last post was apparently deleted by the Mod's, I'll try a 'OOlite' version.
BTW Double Zero stands for Dastardly & Muttley's car...
We British of course used ' Through Deck Cruiser, ASW ' as a euphanism for small aircraft carrier a while ago.
I personally took pictures when a VIP bunch of Japanese expressed interest in the Sea Harrier & especially the Sea Eagle anti-ship
missile ( way above Exocet capabilities at that time ).
They then expressed serious interest in the Harrier II / AV-8B, which I would think only the 2+ with a bit of wiring & software would suit.
Still hardly a peace-keeping helicopter ship.
As Homer Simpson's dad put it, " I haven't been so relaxed since I was on lookout duty at Pearl Harbour " !
Due to the treatment of prisoners, men & women, I avoid buying anything made in Japan unless there's no choice.
