I mean take a look at the airplanes now. They are rapidly close to the cost of building ships. For instance, Airbus 380 is a 300 million dollar plane. A RoRo ship can't cost more than 500 million dollars and can carry a great deal more than the 380 can.

Prepositioning ships Concept works in the given climate of limited funds and geographical political contexts.

It seems to me that everybody is looking for the magical silver bullet that would solve every problem.
