Its took me a whilst to think of a reply to your post
Spectators need not apply..
We're all spectators, watching idiots throw away billions of pounds, and since its billions of pounds of our money, we have input into the debate. Not enough, I grant you. Trying to stop the idiots wasting billions more is probably a vain hope.

Japan and Germany, who are both more successful and richer than us do perfectly well with such aircraft types, and without aircraft carriers!

And if Typhoon export drive succedes could the RAF be left with Tranche 1 aircraft it can't affort to refit.
Would say they are unlikley to be scrapped the odd 1 will become a gate guard/Museum exhibit the best will probably be sold to BaE who will refurbish them and flog them to someone.
