They're quite safe at Coulport. I love that place.

At least part of those carriers is being built in Barrow, the same place they build the subs.
I am hoping that some of the command and control systems are going to be done locally too. There could be work for TLG there.

Again? That was announced a couple years ago, which must mean they're building *four* new carriers.

Wow, at this rate before you know it we'll be ruling the waves again, with an invincible fleet of a dozen carriers and lines of battleships stretching from horizon to horizon in the Spithead Review !

Oh wait, I'm getting carried away - It's the same two carriers they planned to build before

Doesn't matter. A soon as an island nation gives up its navy, it is lost.
