News:

"The former Royal Navy light aircraft carrier HMS Illustrious has returned to sea after her recent purchase and refit by the French Navy. The 25,000 tonne carrier has undergone extensive modification for Rafale fighter jets and is barely recognisable from her previous 30 year long commission with the UK's Royal Navy."

https://twitter.com/Gabriel64869839 Thank you both. I do my best to provide good info on Twitter as well, and i tweet and retweet all the meaningful defence news that i notice all over the internet.

As for you, Cj, that wine comes from relatively near to my area indeed. Search Pianello Val Tidone, Piacenza, on Google Maps, and you'll see from where i write!
I do hope to visit the UK soon enough, though.

You are wrong, SKB! That one must clearly be the legendary sunken Invincible, brought back to the surface and modernized by the Argies...! Damn Argies, you never know what they can do!

Nice article liger, so we are paying 1.5 billiom more for our carriers because Labor couldn’t find 400 million in the MOD budget, they couldnt run a bath

When it comes to these carriers the thing we could have done with 1.5 billion more to spend on them.
