Those who assume the carriers can be sold need to have a think as to who will buy them.

If no cats / traps, then likely customer base is zero. Sp & It have just bought new (small) STOVL ships.

India? Needs STOBAR and has two ships arriving before QE & PoW.

Fr? Needs cat n trap.

China? (see India, but ships slightly further away)

Argentina? Oh, hang on.....
