Off to War Again?

HMS Queen Elizabeth is Preparing?

It looks as if we here in the U.K. are off to was with N-Korea soon, one thought it was going to be Russia? But it looks like we will have to support the U.S. President Trump and His U.S. forces in the far-east?

Britain was involved in the first Korean peninsula war, which brought about N and S-Korea, at the cost of 20% loss of Korean lives! The North-Korean leader is portrayed in the Western media as mad, but the reality is far from that claim!

The British Royal Navy will be putting our new aircraft to the test in the China sea and joining other NATO forces. One hopes that neither China nor Russia get involved in military action, but rather diplomatic roles?

This new carrier will prove itself with the Lockheed Martin F-35 deployment, and its range of BAE Missile systems, because it may get battered from N-Korean defence systems? It is not clear what Britain's role in this war is to be as yet?

The U.S has threatened a Nuclear strike, the first since 1945 in the region! The great dangers, will be if Iran, Pakistan get involved? It is estimated that thirty-one million people will die and a further ten to fifteen million suffer from the radiation fall out?

HMS Queen Elizabeth.

Too much complaining?

The British Royal Navy are not hanging about to get their real estate commissioned and deployed to sea in these worrying times? The U.S. F-35 V/STOL (Vertical and short take-off landing) fighter jets continue to have teething problems, but this is true with all new technology?

It is better to find the problems now and not in the middle of any conflict or war? Perhaps the option of a temporary fix with any left over Harriers might compensate if needed, but it looks like helicopters will be the mainstay for the moment?

This carrier and the largest vessel the British Royal Navy has ever built has more internally than on the outside, splitting the bridges shows that missile command and defence may be with control on one tower, while the other tower will deal with aircraft movements and drone deployment?

Sonar and defence measures one hopes will be improved before she sails and that she will be effective within her up to date support, frigates and submarines? Meanwhile we await the Prince of Wales, her sister ship!
