How possible is this development after Falklands war?
HMG, after seeing that Falklands War was in fact pretty close thing, decides that it's a imperative to get 2 BIG ( 65 000 t ) aircraft carriers. Carriers will be conventionally powered. So 2 CTOL carriers, with proper AEW airplanes.
It would be expencive, but national security has no price.
So, HMS Invincible will be sold to the Australia, and HMS Illustrious and HMS Ark Royal will be converted in commando/ASW carriers.
Aircrafts for carriers will be from USA, so UK buy's F-14 and F-18 for them, and E-2 Hawkeye for AEW.
Plausible?
