There is only one navy on the planet with a capability and a capacity that exceeds the above.
Wrong. Today the US and our frail 'Special Relationship', the Russians and Chinese all put the lie to the above statement.

Dreaming of jam tomorrow?

Frankly, the RN is whining because it couldn't get its' act together and the nasty man took the ball away. JHF was not an RN asset and it is disingenuous to pretend otherwise; the RN was, and no doubt will continue to be, incapable of filling the seats of a FJ fleet, or of providing its share of competent groundcrew.

It is not going to get better
