        <![CDATA[ I have to admit to being obsessed with the RN somehow retaining a second LPH. Ark has had a
partial makeover as a helicopter carrier, but no doubt more could be done.



 


Obviously money is tight and Ark isn&#39;t cheap to run, but for those who know, is there any practicable way to cut the cost of running
her? Would it be possible to take out her turbines and fit diesels instead - obviously her speed would drop too to an Ocean pace.



 

Perhaps cutting Argus and enhancing Arks medical... ]]>

			<description><![CDATA[ A second LPH would be great but in the current climate, a pipe dream that&#39;s unlikely to materialise. Furthermore the only aspect of the RN that is
relatively healthy are the amphibious forces (2 x Assault Ships - Albion &amp; Bulwark, 4 x RFA Bay Class landing ships + 1 x LPH Ocean - all under 10 years
old) and if there is any &#39;spare&#39; cash the RN&#39;s top priorities should be more surface escorts (More Type 45s and FSCs?), more Astute submarines and
more cash put into recruitment... ]]></description>
