Milo,

Sound information, I had been quoting a site promoting the Sea Typhoon.

The Queen Elizabeth class carriers are powered by diesel and gas turbine, apparently steam catapults are not possible ? The electro-magnetic catapults have problems of their own, allegedly.

Can the UK afford any of this ?

But back to the original question.

What is to be done if the F-35 is cancelled?

The Germans and French don't want it. What about India?

Posts wax lyrical about the F-35. But as yet, nobody has addressed the issue.

Cancellation and the alternatives.

No country is too big to fail. No currency or bank is too big to fail and likewise no project is too big to fail.
