I think the Juan Carlos class does have the capability to use the lower vehicle deck for additional storage capacity, though I don't know if that's full up helicopters.
I second loving the Irish getting full up jets instead of the PC-9's in the 00's, though I could just imagine the faces when the budget for the Air Corps comes in
while it is always the worst example, the french did 10 years from keel laying to commissioning for their CVN....... A fair point but not 4 of them in the same period, not too mention the crew numbers enlargement that would be needed, and buying a new fleet of aircraft for the carriers. And if ther...

SSKs are undeniably cheaper to build and since they tend to be smaller and have significantly smaller crews they're also cheaper to operate. That means you can have more boats which should help...
It's a good AU so far and certainly going to something that I'll be watching, a quick question about your population levels though, given that Thiaria would be a free nation with already a significant Irish population at the time of the Great Famine, would there be more movement to Thiaria rather th...
