The Royal Navy is taking command of NATO Mine Countermeasures Group 1. Link. http://www.royal-navy.mod.uk/server/show/ConWebDoc.11260/changeNav/6568 HMS Bulwark assumes Fleet Flagship duties.

On the contrary, why couldn't the Italians have the ski jump at the bow, allowing the maximum run for the Harriers? If the ramp is faired into the bow as it was on the Hermes it will only enhance the ships looks.
