Woody- Better to
scrap the STOVL and buy more A's and C's instead- BRBR

Agree or build for export for those countries that can't afford a CV...and the
USMC, of course..

The cost of s CV ain't in the hull, but in the onboard systems. A small deck
CVEN that is capable costs almost the same as a big deck CVN, w/o the aircraft
capability of the CVN...
