How would we fight this "next war" when we're embroiled in this "current war" until 2015 (at least)? I can't see us putting together a huge task force with "Lusty" or "Ocean" even if we had Harriers.
Why can't some FAA pilots fly Tornado or Typhoon in the interim? What about the guys on exchange with the USN, USMC and French Navy?
With 2015 in mind and QE due in 2016 then there is only a 1 year gap and depending on what Naval Strike Fighter options we now look at will dictate the other half of the equation.
