Firstly avoiding the scrapping of HMS Vanguard in the early 60's.

Instead have her refitted out like HMS Blake, C3 etc and by removing the rear pair of main guns and installing a hanger and flight deck for a section of SeaKing HAS 1/2's

Then in the mid 80's have her again refitted in the same way as the USN's Iowa class with Tomahawk Cruise missiles etc.

How effective would these refits be?

How effective would she be in the 1982 Falklands conflict and Gulf War 1991?

Would the RN be able to afford and run this ship?

Regards filers
