CAUTION
Hate to be the Fun Police, but by reading through these posts, I have identified a lot of accumulated information about force dispositions, capabilities and availabilities, whilst not necessarily protectively marked, it is not generally in the open domain. I hesitate to call BEADWINDOW but I suggest that contributors -especially those who may be/or were recently serving - moderate what they post. This is a particularly sensitive time in the South Atlantic and we don't need to 'up the Anti' any further.
Remember that 'quantity has a quality of its own', before I am screamed down by ill-informed posters claiming that they read it in Janes, or wherever...
I got back to an earlier post - is GoAg actions on merchant shipping contrary to UNCLOS III (ie Law of the Sea)?
