Coming to the deeper question of carrier aviation, its undoubtedly much riskier, but then again, the SHars were far trickier birds to fly.

I was just trying to bait one of fanboys here. I wish the best for the IN in their implementation of the -K into our service fleet. I wish the IN would commission an expeditionary fleet to sail around the world, especially the western hemisphere. I'd imagine IN sailors would love some port calls in NA, the carribean and SA.
