The US Navy isn't without its problems either, over half of their F-18s are grounded awaiting maintenance, the USS Boise has lost its diving certificate, and five other submarines (presumably also 688s) are not looking in good condition.

And if that wasn't cheerful enough (that's sarcasm by the way) the UK MOD rumour mill indicates that this years military spending review is going to be a massacre.
