1- my point still stand expensive ships that we had no problems buying (Russian wouldn't buy a sitting duck).
Buddy, Russia has hell of assets to protect a LHD which you lack of.
"The use of the Avengers appears to be due to the fact that they do not have a full weapons and sensors fit yet, as they were delivered to Egypt without the Russian equipment originally intended (this was to include two 3M-47 Gibka turrets with Igla-S missiles and two AK-630 rotary cannons to provide short-range air defence). Russia is still holding discussions with Egypt over the outfit of the Mistral vessels. "
At the moment your Mistrals are nothing but sitting ducks.
Atleast we don't have foreign bases.
We are NATO. I don't see anything normal holding a NATO base in our soil.
