US Navy commissions new amphibious assault ship, USS America (LHA-6)

[Penguin]

Well, not recently.
The US transferred some 30 CVE to the UK during WWII. The USS Cabot (CVL) was transferred to Spain (Delgado) in 1955, where it served till 2002. The USS Belleau Wood and USS Langley were both transferred (in the 1950s) to France (and returned in the 1960s for scrapping).

Thank you, that is exactly what I've already posted in several threads for some time now. No post-WW2 ships of the CV/CVN/LPH/LHA/LHD varieties. Hence Kitty Hawk to India story is also bogus. An LPH (and crew) was considered for emergency transfer to RN has RN lost one of its baby-flattops during the Falklands war...
