What Royal navy might look like in 10-15 years time. With current government it is hard to guess what ships will enter service and what ships will be sacrificed to invade yet another pointless country. It is my opinion the UK needs a strong and powerful Royal Navy, with at least 24 Frigates, 8 destroyers, 2 carriers, 2 Helicopter carriers, 8 Astute Submarines and substantial blue navy capability which conservatives are dismantling at the behest our national security and in turn we invade places like Iraq and Afhg...we to accomplish exactly what? (nu labur innit) I say we should take care of our own, and than think if we are able to help with peacekeeping worldwide, and for that we need a superb navy that is up to a task of supporting our men and women overseas. Navy first, Army last is my motto, what i mean by this, we enter in to conflict area as peacekeepers first with navy delivering vital supplies and relief to needing population, Army should only be used when all our diplomatic and humanitarian operations were exhausted. Just to end, UK is no one's puppy dog nor should we allow to be used as one every time some Yankee doodle doo yells jump. update...
