Do you think they would throw in a couple of Goalkeeper CIWS' ?

On a related note the harriers have left HMS Ark Royal for the last time...

Will the Harriers be sent to some museum for static display or are they going to meet the scrapman?

Seems a shame to me to scrap the Harriers. Part of history I would have thought.

[jonesey2k]

If they have any sense at all then they will store them somewhere. Just in case...

[DarrenL]

I don't think they have anywhere to sell the GR9s, India use Sea Harriers but they might be a prospect, as are Spain and Thailand. But as you say they are better storing them just in case Kim Il-Jung goes agricultural and we need something to provide close support that can operate from rough short strips on a moving front.

We could use them down here. They mothballed our strike force 10 years next year.
