Comment on UKIP Policies : Defence by stephen.

I agree that we need to substantially increase our defence spending and i would be happy to spend every ‘ spare’ penny we have on keeping the country safe.I think we need to focus on requiring submarines and helicopter carriers over and above anything else. Aircraft carriers in the modern world are still valid but are a huge target in the open sea with missile and sub technological advances, so the more sub-hunting helicopters we have the better.I’m sure the RN would simply love 2 or more HMS Ocean type crafts to protect and compliment our navy more than they would extra expensive to build,expensive to operate and protect aircraft carriers.The policies laid out here to lead me to ask more questions and get me a little suspicious that they lack thorough examinination on what’s best for our security how these aims can be achieved.I also feel it is important to have our emphasis on defending as opposed to attacking.
