If were going to spend all the money to keep pilots current and have new procedures for cat and trap operations with amphibious assault helicopter movements ect does it not also have to be a full time capability. Which means both ships really need converted because it they're isnt the cash for that what happens when the cats and trap carrier hits a rock, has a engine fire gets hit with a tug boat or just needs an overhaul? Are the french going to come to are aid? I think F35B offers the best all round capability for the UK.
