Let us assume, an unforseen crisis has occurred.
A stop gap MPA is needed almost immediately.
What would be your solution?
I suggest Anglo-French joint operations with ATL2 Atlantiques. Probably from two UK bases?
They have built 28 ATL2's, probably about 20 are available?
I may have missed it. What are the parameters for a UK MPA. Range, low level endurance, necessary equipment ?
