SRVL question.
If we do switch back does anyone have any idea how is the SRVL programme going?
I always wondered why we needed it in comparison to the US Marines who didn't seem to express any interest? Is it because we plan to use our aircraft with a heavier combination of weapons than the Americans and therefore need a greater bring back capability. If so is that linked to the different designs of carriers ie with the marines using a flat deck versus our use of a ski jump, meaning that our aircraft can take off with a heavier load?
