Comments by "" (@death_parade) on "UK's biggest warship HMS Prince of Wales ready to resume duties" video.
@allansmith3837 I looked into UK's Coastal Security. It is a joke compared to India's. I would offer that UK folks consult India for the job, but I guess it is more a question of a lack of political will than a question of lack of technical expertise. I do empathize though, India has its own fair share of illegal Bangladeshi and Rohingya immigrants. And our politicians are similarly allowing this to happen in broad daylight.

Funny how many Brits I come across on the internet call Indian quality a joke. The Indian carrier that entered service last year didn't face any such issues during its trials.

@davidhouseman4328 Is Crowsnest AESA?

@davidhouseman4328 That is hilarious.

@john_in_phoenix LCS is an unmitigated disaster. US Navy could be so much more powerful if it had more programs like the Constellation class. And built in South Korea or Japan.

"Having escorts escort a fleet carrier is a waste of escorts" Did this bloke just say that a Surface Action Group with no air cover is superior to a Surface Action Group with air cover? When you are this clueless about Naval Warfare, why bother parading your bankrupt thought on the internet?

@roddychristodoulou9111 Stop running away, explain yourself. If what you say is true, how do you expect the Royal Navy to go up against an enemy landmass or enemy carrier fleet with only destroyers, frigates and submarines?

@JelMain PLAN vs AUKUS Plus I thought Brits love to claim that Royal Navy is the "only other blue water Navy other than USN"? Surely no Navy worth its salt will call itself that unless it can provide air cover to its own fleet away from shores.

@JelMain Get you where? Mainland China?

@JelMain "Convert container vessels"? And do what? Ship troops in them? Or fly off Harrier 3 off of them? How is your proposed Sea Harrier 3 any different form a F-35B? (Aside from your flawed assertion that F-35B subsidizes Boeing Lockheed Martin whereas a Sea Harrier 3 wouldn't). I have no idea what you are trying to say, but PLAN is building both island airfields and aircraft carriers. And comparing these two types of assets is akin to comparing apples and oranges.

Meanwhile, the carrier India built went through the trial phase without any such problems. And yet people say Indian weapons have shoddy quality whereas British weapons are supreme. I'd say it varies case by case.
