according to the mod no decision has been made regarding any future fleet cuts and wont be until 'review', i believe the royal navy has an internal review every summer.

the question was brought up in parliament by the Portsmouth mp to which the answer was pretty much 'no decisions have been made, don't know how this rumour started'

although it is very true that the budget for the royal navy is now very tight following several new projects sucking up funds.

iam really hoping this wont cut the amount of type 45's in the future, ive heard a rumour that more 45 hulls will be made but fitted with different weaponry to replace the current aging frigates without having to research a whole new ship design.
