That article is 3 years old. I understand his analysis. I also think he selectively forgets that any number of foreign customers have only VTOL capable carriers, so a VTOL sort of aircraft is all they can afford for their maritime air arm. It isn't just the Marines who are wedded to such a capability. The Harrier was in the fleet of a number of our NATO allies.
