indie.

I realise some will always try to see the negative side but this long rumoured change would be an excellent move for UK Defence.

I'm an Air Force man but I can see the clear benefit of both. Carrier based F35s are an excellent asset but it doesn't mean they should all be of this ilk. Land based F35s with better range and payload are also a great asset.

I'd say we get the best of both worlds and it would be a rare application of common sense which will benefit us all.
