the military is moving away from nuclear power because of the super high cost of operation and maintenance, not to mention if anything breaks, the ship is down untill a part can be manufactured and delivered.

deisle electic is the wave of the future. just like a train engine that uses en electric motor whos power is generated from a large deisle generator. all the new cruise ships are going in this direction.

the advantages. they can repower with ANY engine capable of creating electricity, including a large bank of batteries, like a sub, if necessary. they can install engines that will run on a viraty of fuels as well, like a single engine that will run on gasoline, deisle, or jet fuel(kerosine), bio-deisle, gas-alkahol mixes, with just a minor change to tuning. giving them the ability to refuel just about anywhere from any country.

also giving them the ability to repower at a future date, decades from now, by simply swapping out the generator with what ever is currently available as opposed to maintaining a number of spacific replacement engines built for that spacific ship.

nuclear power is over rated. a fad that has come and is now going. its only practical use now is systems that need a single power supply that will last a long time like space applications with probes or satilites, or for producing ELECTRIC power for comercial use. or bombs.

sooo, you brits need to get with the times.....

Paging tarv. Paging tarv.

Where's our token jolly jack tar when you need one?

I personally neither knew nor care about this as it's been scientifically proven that anyone who finds ocean-going military vessels interesting is an cUnt who touches themselves in public places.

I regret taking those photos of HMS Belfast for Kaolian as I gather since DF emailed them to him, his ******* has become shrivelled as liken unto an grain of sand.
