Navy Wildcats for the chop?
I've just been reading in today's Times that on the same list of "adjustments" as Albion and Bulwark are the entire fleet of 28 Wildcat HMA2 helicopters which would leave the FAA with just Merlin! Surely there must be some element of bluff in floating such ideas, how on earth would the RN manage or are we happy as a nation to sit with a navy of 4 Trident boats and 2 aircraft carriers which are likely to have nothing to "carry" but a few Chinooks and lots of aid packages?
