Malcrf. What was wrong with the Blue Parrot and GPIC?
Absolutely nothing, just thought a bit of a nod to technology advances wouldn't go completely amiss.............

I must admit I don't get why the need to keep designing new platforms when most of the modern changes seem to be what you stick in them, so I don't understand why we don't just keep refining the platforms whilst changing what we stick in them.

So new-build Victors and Buccaneers capable of launching long-range nuclear cruise missiles seems perfectly viable to me, and whilst we're at it why not new build Nimrods for our MPA?!!
