part 1 - introduction
As the title says. The year is 1945. The Royal navy decides to scrap Tigers, Vanguard, and the collection of small and medium size carriers from WWII - by 1950. Or to sell them to foreign countries. There will be no Audacious-class either.
Instead they will build all six Centaurs plus a pair of Midway-sized Malta carriers. Such fleet will be the backbone of the RN until the end of cold War (the Midways did it, and of course Hermes lasted until 2016).
